How to get a clean apartment every day?

Staying organised is a difficult habit to integrate into your life. Like with most things, the trick is to do a little bit every day. Here are four tips you can use to get your apartment neat – and stay organised!

Make your bed

Making your bed every morning is a wonderful way to start your day. It is also a quick fix to an unorganised room, since your bed is the main focal point. When you make your bed each morning, it gets your linens and pillows off the floor up more space in your room. Your bed can also double as place to fold your laundry.

Pick up your clothes

Clothes create the biggest mess in a bedroom, because they’re so easy to throw on the floor when you can’t find what you’re looking for. Do a spot check every day to pick up clothes off the floor and place them in your hamper. Commit to doing laundry weekly, and fold immediately after the clothes are done drying to avoid them sitting and getting wrinkled for a week. Folding laundry is the perfect Netflix and Chill activity; turn on your favourite show and get to it.

Do your dishes

Dirty dishes clutter counter space and limit the use of the kitchen. Who wants to cook a beautiful dinner or meal prep in a dirty space? No one. Do your dishes as soon as you’re done with them – rinse, dry or stick in the dishwasher, repeat. Remember, a clean sink is an organised kitchen!

Store your things

Utilising simple storage is a great way to hide stuff and can maximize your living space, giving your apartment a more comfy organised feel. Wicker baskets and storage bins allow you to have a home for all your items and will train you to put things back when you are finished using them. Plus, storage containers won’t cost you a fortune and can add style to your apartment.
