Referred to as the “most wonderful time of the year” by some, Fall is full of new beginnings as well as familiar back to routine vibes for most in one way, shape or form. Whether returning to a tried-and-true schedule or beginning new habits at home, the bottom line is that there’s always just so much to do. And we know that getting back on track with a household cleaning schedule can feel overwhelming. Knowing when to tackle dirty floors is one thing – but finding the time to do so on a regular basis is another! Don’t worry – we’ve got you. Here’s our foolproof routine for keeping hardwood, ceramic tile, laminate floors and more spotless without the hassle. As simple as 1-2-3, get ready to say goodbye to guesswork and hello to a cleaner home:
Step 1: Begin by sweeping up with our lightweight yet durable Smooth-Sweep Push Broom. Designed for smooth surfaces, its seven rows of bristles capture even the smallest particles on the first pass making it the perfect tool to start or reset the day. A reliable dustpan is going to go a long way here, too. We recommend our Upright Dustpan to save your back or our Big Dustpan with its extra-wide mouth for the biggest messes. As for frequency, it really depends on how messy things get over there. A simple sweep daily will keep messes to a minimum and make the weekly mopping a little less taxing. Ultimately – you do you. We’re just here to help!
Step 2: Next, you’re going to want to hit those hard to reach spots. We understand that sometimes moving furniture out of the way isn’t in the cards, so leave the sofa where it is and grab our swivel-neck Microfibre Dust Mop. Its microfibre fingers pick up pet hair and allergens and the handy attached comb removes it all from the machine-washable head with a flick of the wrist straight into the bin. Again – how frequently to dry mop is totally up to you. Just be sure to keep your eyes open and look down from time to time. Those dust bunnies are sneaky little devils.
Step 3: Now that your floors are swept and dry mopped, you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and get to the real work at-hand with our Jumbo Cotton Wet Mop. 50% larger than standard cotton mops and with a convenient, built-in scrubber pad, this oversized mop tackles yucky stuck-on messes with ease. Plus, the looped ends and tail band provide streak-free cleaning and greater durability. Win/Win. Pair it with our 3.5-gallon Utility Bucket for a sparkling finish and use weekly for best results. Good luck! You’ve got this!
