By ServiceMarket.com – As a mum, keeping your home spick and span all year round only becomes a challenging and tiresome task when you don’t clean it regularly. The experts at ServiceMarket, the UAE’s leading online marketplace for home services, have compiled a list of habits to consider adopting to make sure your home remains clean and tidy.
Kondo-it!
The more belongings you have, the longer it will take you to keep your home clean and tidy. If you haven’t sorted through your belongings in a while, sort them into five piles or boxes: donate, sell, store, recycle, and throw away. Be sure to keep repeating the process of decluttering frequently.
Follow the “Take off Your Shoes” Rule
You’d be surprised by how much dirt you can avoid by simply leaving your shoes at the door. Make it a rule for your kids, family and even guests to not walk in with their shoes on, especially if your rooms are carpeted. If this is not an option, keep foot mats at your door and make it a habit to thoroughly wipe your shoes before entering your home.
Keep Your Belongings Organized
Another way to make sure your home remains tidy is to keep everything organized. We often pick up items but don’t return them to their place, which makes our home look untidy. For example, a lot of us are guilty of throwing clothes on a couch instead of back in the closet. Consider investing in more drawers and cabinets if you don’t have enough storage space.
Keep Your Pets Groomed
If you have a cat or dog, then you know how much they enjoy spending time outdoors, which means that they also bring a lot of dirt into your home. They also tend to leave some of their fur on your carpets and furniture. You can make cleaning easier by keeping your pets well-groomed and minimizing the amount of mess they make.
Don’t Let Your Laundry and Dishes Pile Up
It goes without saying that piles of laundry and dirty dishes make your home look untidy. Do the dishes or put them into the dishwasher after every meal. You should also tackle your laundry before it piles up. Make sure you hang your clothes or fold and place them in drawers. If you’re pressed for time or feeling overwhelmed, you can always book a professional laundry service in Dubai to take care of it for you.
Keep in mind that while these habits will certainly make it easier for you to stay on top of cleaning chores, you can also get help from professional cleaning services in Dubai. To maintain a healthy environment for your kids, you should also occasionally book specialty services like deep cleaning and mattress cleaning (twice a year), to make your home germ-free. You can easily find and book a wide range of cleaning services through ServiceMarket’s app or website.
