Ever get a feeling that all you do in your house is cleaning and putting stuff away? It is hard to keep up with tidiness when you have pets or kids running around.
Modern Times Homes have been buying and selling Rockford houses for quite some time, and we came across a lot of families that were struggling to keep their house clean and organized. We thought it would be a good idea to give you some tips to make it easier for you. Life storage article has additional tips about clean and organized house.
One very important thing when trying to stay organized is having a designated place for each thing. So for example, instead of always putting your keys and wallet on a countertop, find a spot you want to keep it at and always remember to put it there when you get home.
Remind all your family members to always put their stuff in the place they should be. For example, when you get home, have your kids put their shoes and jacket in the same place each time. Make it a routine. Maybe think about special hooks in the mud room or kids clothes to keep their backpacks in there instead of putting it on the living room floor.
Try to put dishes away after each meal. When you have a sink full of dishes it automatically feels and looks messy. Make a routine to wipe countertops each evening before you go to bed, that way you will always wake up to a clean kitchen.
Think about spreading house chores among family members. Let’s say each evening you are doing dishes, cleaning countertops after dinner, your significant other is responsible for sweeping or vacuuming, and kids are responsible for putting toys away. Make it a daily routine. That way each day you will have a tidy house. Also, a good idea would be investing in an Irobot; each time you would leave your house, some vacuuming could be done.
Make a weekly schedule, to help you remember stuff and to find time to complete your tasks. Plan your weeks ahead. For example choose days to do laundry, and on those days complete your laundry with folding and putting it away. That way you will remember if it is laundry day then you have to complete it. Also, if you clean your house weekly, try to always do it on the same day. That way you will know if Friday is designated to cleaning a house, you will not make other plans that day. Maybe even think about eating out that day, just to enjoy your clean kitchen longer. You can find more Tips here
