Quick Home Cleaning Tip

Use multitasking products

Experts recommend optimizing your tools. They point out that regular vacuums can be turned into handheld vacuums to help with dusting and save you more time in the long run.

A multi-surface steam cleaner can attack bathroom shower tiles, floor tile grout, and stubborn stains on your stove. Using Clorox Multi-Surface Cleaner on various surfaces is also great.

You can use them on anything from sealed granite to stainless steel throughout your home without worrying about switching products.

Clean clockwise

This is one of the most practical and quick home cleaning tips we can give you! Choose a position that’s “12 o’clock” and begin from there, cleaning in a circle until you’ve finished.

This way, you won’t be wasting time trying to figure out where to go next, and you won’t miss anything along the way.
