Fall In Love with a Clean Home

When it comes to holiday cleaning, or cleaning in general, the list can pile up. The more chores that get added to the list, the harder it can be to get motivated to get the job done. At Zerorez®, we are the Experts in Clean™, so we know a trick or two for how to keep up with your daily cleaning tasks. Follow along for the best tips and tricks we have.
Start a list.
Mental checklists are great and all, but it often leaves room to forget things. It also does not come with the same satisfaction of checking things off of a physical list. Our motivation can increase when we begin to feel and see our accomplishments.
Create a reward system.
When motivation and discipline are lacking, create a deal with yourself. If you can work out some sort of reward for every task you complete, you might find yourself working harder and accelerating your cleaning process in order to get what you want.
Small tasks lead to big rewards.
Ever heard of habit stacking? Many people implement habit stacking in different ways, but if you are looking to keep a clean house, then it’s a simple way to add tasks to your daily routine. Habit stacking is simply adding on another task to one that you already perform. So if you are brushing your teeth in the morning, the cleaning habit can be to wipe down the sink each day afterwards. If your current habit is to cook at least one meal a day, then make it a habit to wipe down the stove after each time you cook. Habit stacking not only saves time, but makes it easier to make cleaning a part of your routine.
Create a chore chart.
Not every chore needs to be done daily. Creating a schedule for dusting, vacuuming, mopping, etc. can also help you tackle one big chore at a time, making it all feel a little less daunting. Schedule the first of every month to clean the oven out, or every other Friday to empty and clean the fridge, and you will suddenly find yourself with a shiny and bright home.
Ask for help.
Whether you live with a spouse or on your own, asking for help is easy! Teaming up with your partner can make cleaning fly by, and give you a chance to bond over your hard work. Make it a date! Simply titling cleaning as a date can help make it feel a lot more fun and doable than calling it a chore day.
Professional help works, too.
