A clean kitchen is as important as a clean bathroom; both spaces have a tendency to become cluttered and unhygienic very quickly, and yet they are the two main rooms in the home that should be spotlessly clean at all times.
However, busy kitchens are much harder to keep clean, especially if they’re used multiple times on a daily basis, leaving precious little time for cleaning between meal prep and cooking. But, with a few simple tips, you can get your kitchen clean between meals, and keep it that way for longer:
Clean up as you go
If you spill something, clean it up right away. Not only does this prevent staining, but it makes the kitchen much more manageable in terms of cleaning, once the cooking is over.
Put together a cleaning routine
Creating a routine for cleaning will help you keep the space consistently clean, and you can break the routine down into daily chores, weekly chores, and deep cleaning chores. Every kitchen is different, so every cleaning routine will look a bit different.
Keep the sink area clean
This part of the kitchen is notorious for becoming a breeding ground for germs and bacteria, but by rinsing dishes as soon as you’ve finished using them (if you don’t have a dishwasher, if you do, load them into the machine right after use), using a sink strainer (and emptying it regularly), and disinfecting the entire sink area at the end of every day with your favorite product, you can eliminate bacteria and make the whole area much more hygienic and pleasing to the eye.
Organize your kitchen
It’s so much easier to keep an organized kitchen clean, which means that you’re far less likely to have any cross-contamination, and can find what you’re looking for with ease. Try to create space inside a drawer or closet for as much as is possible, which will stop dust from gathering on things, and keep them hygienically clean between uses. Installing some shelves can also help give you storage space, just try to keep them away from cooking areas to prevent items kept on them from becoming covered in grease. You should also go through your kitchen items every once in a while, to see if anything can be given to charity, sold, or discarded, to keep clutter to a minimum.
Hire a regular cleaning service
By having a professional cleaning company come in once or twice a week, you won’t have to worry so much about keeping the kitchen clean yourself, you can simply leave it to them. However, it helps them if you can keep the space as free of clutter as possible, so even if you do minimal cleaning between meals, you must make sure the cleaning team can do their job unhindered and to best effect, each time they are scheduled to visit.
It’s easy to keep a kitchen clean if you commit to cleaning up after every meal or food-prep-spillage, ensure that every item has a home to go to between uses, and hire a professional cleaning service if you’re struggling to maintain hygiene levels, or simply don’t have the time or energy to keep it clean yourself.
