Daily Cleaning Habits That Make a Big Difference

Written By R Thorson

Small actions done consistently can eliminate the need for marathon cleaning sessions.

  • Do a 10-minute evening reset: Put away clutter, tidy surfaces, and load the dishwasher.

  • Wipe kitchen counters after cooking: Prevents sticky build-up and makes weekly cleaning easier.

  • Keep a cloth in each bathroom: A quick mirror or sink wipe takes seconds and keeps things fresh.

  • Clean from top to bottom: Dust first, then vacuum or mop to catch everything that falls.

Pro tip: Setting a 5-minute timer can turn dreaded chores into quick wins.
