Call a friend

If energy-boosting music wasn’t really up your alley, calling a friend as you clean around your home might be a fantastic and quick home cleaning tip for you. You’ll be astonished by how much faster the time flies when you’re connecting with a loved one on the phone.

If you need to clean up fast because you have guests coming over, do this first. Remove or organize shoes and other random things lying around on the floor in your entryway.

Then, do a swoop clutter pickup by walking around your home with a large bin or basket for tossing in toys, dirty clothes, and any other random knickknacks you might have.
