Guest Post Cleaning Solution!

Here’s a solution for those who love a clean house, but 
dread cleaning day…SKIP CLEANING DAY and start a 
HOUSE CLEANING SCHEDULE!
 
Instead of planning a marathon day of cleaning every week 
or two, start setting aside 15 minutes a day for cleaning. 
Even better…delegate some of your cleaning chores to 
your children! I’ll be happy to teach you how to make 
a chore chart!
 
Doesn’t 15 minutes a day sound better than spending half 
your Saturday cleaning or going crazy the day of your 
party to make the house look perfect? The key is to 
make a house cleaning schedule, so that every room 
in your house will be cleaned every 2 weeks.
 
If you tackle one room each day or one task each day, 
you’ll never feel like a maid again! Here’s a suggested 
house cleaning schedule to get you started, just 
customize it for your house and let the cleaning begin!
 
Monday: run the dust mop under all furniture, 
beds, etc.

Tuesday: vacuum downstairs

Wednesday: vacuum upstairs

Thursday: mop kitchen, bathroom and foyer

Friday: clean 1 bathroom (the tub, the shower, 
the toilet, the sink, the counters) 
 
Saturday: clean 1 bathroom (the tub, the shower,
the toilet, the sink, the counters) 
 
Monday: vacuum high traffic areas (high 
traffic areas usually need to be vacuumed 
once a week) 
 
Tuesday: dust living room, den and 
dining room (don’t forget to dust the baseboards 
and blinds or shutters)
 
Wednesday: dust bedrooms (don’t forget the 
baseboards, blinds or shutters) 
 
Thursday: extra job (this is a cleaning job 
that only needs to be done every once and a while 
like dusting ceiling fans or cleaning out the 
refrigerator) 
 
Friday: clean kitchen (the stove, the sink, 
dust, clean counters)

Saturday: sweep porch and wipe off porch furniture
 
That’s it…once you’ve completed the first 2 week cycle, 
your house will always feel clean! Certainly we can 
all find 15 minutes in our busy day!

  1. Thanks for the guest post! My sister in law just bought a huge house, and she’s feeling very overwhelmed with cleaning…this article made her realize that she could break it into “bite-sized” pieces!
