When your week starts getting busy, you may lack time to clean your home as often as you want. Rooms that get less attention due to our busy schedules are the bedrooms. This leads to a lot of dust and grime accumulation that makes the room uncomfortable.

How to Thoroughly Clean Your Room in Less Than an Hour

When you divide chores into efficient and quick tasks, you can manage to cover all the bedroom bases. Here are some quick steps to follow;

For lamps with a fiberglass lampshade, ensure you dust the inside and outside parts using a damp microfiber cloth. Afterward, put some warm water and all-purpose soap in a sink and wash the shade with a soft cloth. If the lampshade is too dirty, add some vinegar, rinse well in warm water and place let it dry.

4. Clean your windows, mirrors, and walls

Wipe the walls using a damp clean cloth using circular motions from top to bottom. In case you have any wall hangings such as picture frames or wall clocks, set them aside and wipe with a clean damp cloth. Use a disinfectant spray and a cloth to clean the doorknobs and the light switches.

5. Clean bedroom surfaces

When cleaning these surfaces, always start from the highest working down. Choose an appropriate glass cleaner, antibacterial wipes and dusting spray for the surfaces. When wiping the bedroom surfaces, also pay attention to tables and chair legs, the fronts of dressers and the poles of your lamps.

Always consider the floor material. For instance, if you have a hardwood floor, mop using clean soapy water and rinse it out.
