About 30 minutes a week, then do a proper clean/dusting once a month, maybe an hour. Then spend 3-4 hrs doing a deep clean for spring and fall. Wash the walls/ceiling/baseboards, vacuum your mattress, wipe out the cupboards, clean the stove. Your place will look pretty much clean and things won't get carried away.

I always kind of defended myself with stating that maybe my house is not as tidy as it could be all the time, but that I do clean what needs to, when it needs to. Turns out I may have been telling the truth more than I believed myself. So I'll just be taking another cup of coffee now and feel good about myself.

To clan it every season, every year, twice a year, once every second year, that would be basic maintenance for most. Vote comment up 0 0points Vote comment down reply Load More Replies...

If you're working 40,50,60+ hours a week when I get home I don't want to spend all my time cleaning. Where's the quality of life in that? Pretty said if your life is just working and housework. Personally I'd rather live in bit of a pigsty and actually enjoy life. Otherwise what's the point? Come at me!

About 30 minutes a week, then do a proper clean/dusting once a month, maybe an hour. Then spend 3-4 hrs doing a deep clean for spring and fall. Wash the walls/ceiling/baseboards, vacuum your mattress, wipe out the cupboards, clean the stove. Your place will look pretty much clean and things won't get carried away. Like 20 hrs cleaning per year and you're good Vote comment up 3 3points Vote comment down reply Load More Replies...

However, some of these tips will help soas not to find an overwhelming mess. The easiest tip of all? Wash your hands. Seriously, grime from hands is transferred everywhere. I taught my son and his roommates in college followed suit. They had the cleanest, dirtiest house on campus.😅 I hope you can get some rest.
