Plan ahead:<\/strong> Keeping ALL the cleaning for the day of the big event, will only make you feel the holiday season cleaning stress. There are jobs that don\u2019t need to be done on the day \u2013 clean the oven a few days before; cleaning and preparing the cutlery and crockery needed for the lunch can be organised the night before; and, windows can be done a few days beforehand.<\/p>\n

Divide and conquer:<\/strong> Cleaning is a chore the entire family can take part in. Give each member of the family a designated job \u2013 these can vary during the day depending on what is happening. For example, your child will be responsible for the floors before the guests arrive; then responsible for setting and clearing the dishes; and, then once again responsible for the floors when the guests have left. Don\u2019t be afraid to delegate.<\/p>\n

Choose a product that can be used for more than one job:<\/strong> This eliminates walking up and down to the cleaning product cabinet and saves you cleaning time. For example, Chemico\u2019s Liqui Cleen is an effective all-purpose cleaner<\/a> boasting a 3X extreme clean formula. It can be used on a variety of surfaces helping you to keep your home effortlessly clean. Just having the right cleaning products can make all the difference.<\/p>\n

Tidy up on the go:<\/strong>\u00a0Get into the habit of cleaning up after yourself. Tidy your room before going to sleep, and then make your bed as soon as you wake up.
