Keeping your home clean and fresh is easier said than done—especially with Brisbane’s busy lifestyle and subtropical climate bringing in dust, humidity, and the occasional muddy footprint! While hiring professional cleaners can make a world of difference, maintaining that shine between visits doesn’t have to be hard.
Here are 10 simple, practical tips to keep your Brisbane home sparkling between cleans.
1. Create a Daily 10-Minute Routine
Set aside just 10 minutes a day to tackle quick chores like wiping kitchen benches, putting away items, or giving the bathroom sink a rinse. This prevents mess from piling up and keeps your home looking tidy without effort.
2. Open the Windows for Fresh Air
Brisbane’s warm climate means homes can quickly feel stuffy. Open your windows daily to let in fresh air and natural light—this not only makes your home feel cleaner but also reduces humidity that can cause mould.
3. Wipe Surfaces After Use
A simple habit: after cooking, eating, or using the bathroom, give surfaces a quick wipe. This stops dirt, oil, and water stains from building up, making deep cleans much easier.
4. Keep Entryways Clean
Most of the dirt in Brisbane homes comes from outside. Place a doormat at every entrance and encourage family members to remove shoes indoors. This small step drastically cuts down on dust and grime.
5. Stay on Top of Laundry
Don’t let clothes pile up! Schedule laundry days and fold clothes as soon as they’re dry. A tidy laundry routine keeps bedrooms and living spaces clutter-free.
6. Quick Vacuum Sessions
With Brisbane’s mix of city dust and suburban leaf litter, a 5-minute vacuum every few days in high-traffic areas (living room, hallways, kitchen) makes a huge difference in keeping floors spotless.
7. Use Multi-Purpose Cleaners
Keep an eco-friendly multi-purpose spray handy. A quick spritz and wipe on spills, mirrors, or counters prevents stains and keeps surfaces looking fresh.
8. Bathroom Freshness Hack
Keep a microfiber cloth in the bathroom. After showers, wipe down mirrors and taps—this prevents water spots, mould, and soap scum from building up in humid Brisbane bathrooms.
9. Declutter as You Go
Adopt the “one in, one out” rule. If something new enters your home, donate or discard an unused item. This keeps clutter under control and makes cleaning far easier.
10. Book Regular Professional Cleans
Even with the best efforts, nothing beats a professional clean. Scheduling regular deep cleans with experts like RR Best Cleaning Services Pty Ltd ensures your home remains healthy, fresh, and sparkling all year round.
