YOUR 10-MINUTE SPEED CLEANING GAME PLAN
Reset your mindset
Don’t try to deep clean—this is all about quick wins. Aim to make your space visually clean over spotless perfection.
Clear visible clutter
Grab a basket and quickly scoop up items from countertops, tables, and the floor. Tuck them away in a closet, room - or even bathtub - to sort later.
Wipe visible surfaces
Use a multi-surface spray or a dusting cloth to swipe down kitchen counters, bathroom sinks, and coffee tables.
Spot-clean mirrors and glass - only as needed
A quick pass with glass cleaner or a microfiber cloth removes smudges and adds shine to your entryway or bathroom.
Sweep or vacuum key zones
Focus on where guests will walk—like the entryway, kitchen, and living room. Don't try to vacuum everywhere, and don't even think about changing attachments! A quick floor refresh can make a huge difference, especially if you have pets.
Empty trash bins
Bathroom and kitchen bins fill up fast. Take out the trash to freshen the space and remove odors.
Close doors to messy rooms
Didn’t have time to tackle the bedroom or laundry room? Just close the door. No one needs to see the chaos. If your guests want a tour, skip the "designated messy rooms" for next time.
Fluff and fold
Straighten pillows and fold throw blankets. These small tweaks can instantly elevate your living space.
Clean air makes everything feel cleaner
Light a candle, spritz a room spray, or open a window for a burst of fresh air. Clean smells make everything feel fresher, even if nothing else has changed.
