Cleaning your room can seem like an overwhelming task. In this article you will find a step-by-step process that will hopefully help you to clean your room quickly and efficiently. There are also tips at the end of the article to help you keep your room clean.

How To

There are 7 steps to cleaning your room. The first step is to get everything off of the floor. To start this process, you’ll want to throw everything that is on your bed onto the floor. This way you have a flat surface to sort through everything that is now on your floor. Place everything that is on the floor, neatly into 3 piles on top of the bed. The piles are divided into things you will keep, things you will give away and things for the garbage. The things you will give away, place in boxes and the things meant for the garbage, put them in the garbage. Sort through the things you’re keeping pile and figure out what stays in the bedroom and what belongs somewhere else (i.e. a spatula, television remote, etc.).

Now that the floor is bare, start sorting through your dressers and closet. This time use the floor to make your 3 piles (keep, give away, garbage). Clean clothes should be hung in the closet or placed into dresser drawers. Take this time to organize your drawers (i.e. a sock drawer, an underwear drawer, etc.). Put all dirty clothes in the hamper. Or, wash them along with the bed sheets from your bed (they probably haven’t been washed in a while). After the bed sheets have been cleaned, make your bed. The next step is to organize your dresser tops. Again, utilize the 3 pile rule. Finally, all that is left is to dust, vacuum and/or sweep.

Tips & Takeaways

There are a few tools you will need before you start cleaning your room. Clothes hangers play a very important role in keeping clean clothes from piling up on the floor. You can get some quality ones here www.onlyhangers.com. You’re also going to need a duster for the dust that has accumulated since the last time you cleaned your room. You can get a good swiffer dusters that will clean up the dust bunnies in no time. And finally, a vacuum. Dyson is a leader in vacuums applying the newest technology.

Now that your room is clean, here are some tips in helping it stay that way. First, make sure that you put your clean clothes away. Do this as soon as they’re done drying. Make sure that they are properly hung on clothes hangers that suit them, or that they are put away, neatly, in their respective dresser drawers (i.e. put socks in the sock drawer, underwear in the underwear drawer, etc.). Make sure to vacuum and/or sweep once a week.
If your room gets dusty quickly, make sure to dust it before you vacuum and/or sweep. And lastly, try to keep up with your laundry. You’ll probably have to do this about once a week to keep your hamper from overflowing onto your floor.
