7 Easy tips to keep your home clean longer

Keeping your home clean can feel overwhelming, especially with a busy schedule. The good news? A few simple habits can help you maintain a tidy home with less effort. Here are 7 easy tips to keep your space clean for longer.

1. Follow the 2-Minute Rule

If a task takes less than two minutes (wiping a counter, picking up clothes, throwing something out), do it immediately.
This prevents small messes from becoming big chores.

2. Clean as you Go

After cooking, wipe down your kitchen surfaces before leaving the room.
It prevents grease buildup and makes daily cleaning easier.

3. Use a “To-Put-Away” basket

Place a small basket in your main living area.
Throughout the day, add items that are out of place.
In the evening, put everything back where it belongs in a few minutes.

4. Disinfect High-Touch areas

Door handles, switches, and remote controls gather germs quickly.
A quick weekly wipe keeps your home fresh and healthy.

5. Air out your home daily

Open your windows for 5–10 minutes.
It improves air quality, reduces odors, and minimizes humidity.

6. Use a good doormat

A quality doormat can reduce up to 80% of dirt entering your home.
This small investment keeps floors cleaner for longer.

7. Monthly deep clean

Once a month, focus on:

• fridge cleaning
• baseboards
• windows
• high shelves
• carpets and rugs
