Maximize Your Toilet Brush Time! Week 4

Quick Cleaning Tips for Busy Professionals from Select Home Cleaning

The 10-Minute Kitchen Reset

The kitchen is the heart of the home, and usually the hardest to keep clean. Between cooking, packing lunches, and rushing out the door, it can go from spotless to chaotic in no time.

Here's how to get your kitchen looking clean and feeling fresh in just 10 minutes:

Step 1 — Clear the Counters (2 minutes) Put away appliances, mail, and anything that doesn't belong on the counter. A clear counter instantly makes the whole kitchen look cleaner, even before you've touched a sponge.

Step 2 — Wipe Down Surfaces (2 minutes) Use a damp microfiber cloth or disinfectant wipe to quickly wipe down countertops, the stovetop, and appliance fronts. Pay extra attention to the handles, they collect the most germs.

Step 3 — Tackle the Sink (2 minutes) Rinse out any dishes or stack them neatly, give the sink a quick scrub, and wipe down the faucet. A clean sink makes the entire kitchen feel under control.

Step 4 — Wipe the Inside of the Microwave (1 minute) Place a damp paper towel inside and run it for 30 seconds, the steam loosens splatters. A quick wipe and you're done.

Step 5 — Sweep the Floor (2 minutes) A fast sweep or a dry Swiffer pass picks up crumbs and debris from high-traffic areas near the stove and sink.

Step 6 — Done (1 minute to spare) Take out the trash if it's full, replace the dish towel with a fresh one, and step back to enjoy a kitchen that looks and feels clean.

Pro Tip: Keep a small spray bottle of all-purpose cleaner and a microfiber cloth on the counter so you can wipe things down after every meal, no hunting for supplies, no excuses!
If at the end of the day you still find yourself struggling to keep up with everything that needs to be done, we would be happy to step in!
