6 Quick Cleaning Tips to become Guest Ready

6 Quick Cleaning Tips to become Guest Ready

No matter how much care we take, it is almost impossible to be guest-ready. With children, pets, and our own carelessness contributing to the mess, from TV to carpet, almost everything needs quick care. Normally, with all the efforts focusing on preparing food, getting the table ready, etc, cleaning is the last chore we attend. And therefore, we normally lack the time required for a thorough cleaning.

Let’s take a look at some quick cleaning tips that will help a lot when expecting guests in a short time.

Attend the door

Let us start with the door and the surrounding area. Quick clean using a broom or vacuum cleaner, get the clutter out of the way. Dust the door and clean the handles. If required, use a damp cloth and wipe clean the door on both sides.

Make enough space for the guest to remove and place their footwear. Get the coat hangers ready and make sure that the lighting in that area is proper.

Take the rug or carpet out and shake out the dust and dirt. Run the vacuum cleaner quickly through them.

TV and surroundings

There is a good chance that our TV needs a quick duster treatment and proper routing for wires. Let us keep the whole area as presentable as possible. Most modern TV stands come with proper cable concealing clips and racks. Use them properly to hide wires and cables away from sight.

Attend the Furniture

We might not have the time to attend to every piece of furniture in the house. But try to do our best with living room and dining room chairs and tables. The coach can take help from a quick run from a duster, a vacuum cleaner, and a quick wipe with a damp cloth.

Take out the cushions and shake off the debris and dirt if any. Change covers for cushions and make them look smart.

Charging Points

This is one of the biggest eyesores we normally ignore. If the devices have enough charge, take them off from the many charging points. If some devices still need juice, take them to much more private spaces like bedrooms and use the charging points available. In case of emergency, make use of power banks to keep the charging points mobile.

Bathroom cleaning

To make things easier, there are cleaning bars that we can place inside the flush. It will clean the toilet on each flush. Make use of such shortcuts where available while attending the bathroom.

Clean the bathroom mirror with a cleaning spray and a dry cloth. Make sure that the mirror is clean and streak-free.

Use a room freshener if required and try to use the exhaust for a few minutes for better air circulation.

Team Work

Let us not handle every work single-handedly. Split these tasks between family members. Children can take care of removing their items from the door area, living room, etc. Keeping the toys and other items in order is a task well suited for children.

If old enough, they can also take care of pets and deal with electronic items.
