Cleaning Routines & Schedules

A cleaning routine is a budget of minutes, not a list of ideals. This system fixes a small daily core, distributes weekly jobs across six days with a rest day for slack, and puts the monthly deep jobs on rotation — scaled to your rooms, your pets and the time you honestly have.

Start-here checklist

  1. Fix the daily core first: kitchen, basin, one floor
  2. Six days of weekly jobs, one spare day — never seven
  3. Scale job minutes to the room count, not to a magazine house
  4. One monthly deep job per weekend, rotating
