Want more time to enjoy outdoor activities this summer? At FGK Services, we understand the importance of efficiency as we balance providing high quality cleaning services to multiple clients every day. Below are helpful ideas for getting through your chores checklist while still having time leftover for some fun. “Speed cleaning is being organized and efficient enough with cleaning to get the house ‘clean enough’ in a short period of time” as stated by Melissa from Inspired Room. Applying these speedy home cleaning tips below will allow more time for sharing golf, swimming, biking and other social gatherings throughout the summer season.
Lighten The Load
Summer is an excellent time to have a garage sale. Cleaning out over-stuffed drawers, children’s toy boxes and unused clothing will create less to clean and earn extra spending money. If you don’t know where to start, ask yourself, “Have I worn this clothing within the last year? When was the last time my children played with these toys? Do I really need 4 of the same take-out menus cluttering this drawer?”
Keep Cleaning Products Handy
You are more likely to stay focused if your cleaning products are stored somewhere with easy access. This eliminates distractions such as passing your smartphone, checking emails or deciding that a snack is much more appealing than cleaning.
Bathroom Tricks
Heat and humidity are breeding grounds for bacteria and mold. An easy solution is having each family member open the window after a shower or running the bathroom fan while the warm water is running. Soaking shower heads overnight with vinegar is a great way to eliminate the black debris that accumulates around the shower head.
Develop a Daily Cleaning Routine:
- Load or unload the dishwasher as necessary after each meal and never leave dishes in the sink overnight
- Wipe down kitchen and bathroom counters to remove sticky residue and crumbs (and prevent bugs from gathering)
- Do laundry as needed, thus eliminating the weekend pile up
- Straighten up as you leave each room by putting everything back where it belongs (not in a random drawer!)
