Introduction:

Keeping your home clean doesn’t always have to mean spending hours scrubbing and dusting. With a few simple cleaning hacks, you can save time, reduce stress, and keep your home sparkling every day. At Tidy, we know how important a fresh, clean space is—and we’re here to share our favorite quick tips with you.

With that said, here are 10 Simple Cleaning Hacks to Keep Your Home Sparkling Every Day 👊

1. Use Lemon for a Fresh Microwave
Cut a lemon in half, place it in a bowl of water, and heat it in the microwave for 3 minutes. The steam loosens grime, and the lemon leaves a fresh scent.

2. Baking Soda for Carpets
Sprinkle baking soda over your carpets, let it sit for 15 minutes, then vacuum. This removes odors and freshens up your floors.

3. Vinegar for Sparkling Glass
Mix equal parts vinegar and water to clean mirrors and windows without streaks.

4. Keep Shoes by the Door
Reducing dirt at the source is the easiest way to keep your floors clean longer.

5. Dryer Sheets for Dusting
Use an old dryer sheet to dust surfaces—it picks up particles better than a cloth.

6. Disinfect Your Sponge
Microwave your kitchen sponge for 30 seconds to kill bacteria.

7. Squeegee for Pet Hair
A window squeegee works wonders for removing pet hair from couches and carpets.

8. Clean as You Cook
Instead of waiting until the end, wipe counters and wash dishes as you go to keep your kitchen tidy.

9. Use Toothpaste for Chrome Fixtures
Polish bathroom and kitchen taps with a small dab of toothpaste to make them shine.

10. Schedule a Professional Clean
Sometimes, the best hack is letting the experts handle it. Hiring a cleaning service like Tidy gives you more time to relax and enjoy your spotless home.

With these simple hacks, you can keep your home clean and welcoming with minimal effort. And if you’re ever short on time, remember that Tidy is just a booking away.
