A weekly cleaning schedule that doesn’t eat your Saturday
You don’t need a cleaning day. Give each job its own rhythm and they spread themselves out: a couple of small things most days, and the big ones only a few times a year.
How it looks in the app. Tick one.
The whole list
Every week
Hoover
The floors you actually walk on.
Clean the toilet
Quick if it’s weekly, grim if it isn’t.
Wipe the bathroom sink and mirror
Two minutes.
Wipe the hob and counters
A proper wipe, not just crumbs.
Swap the towels
Bath towels and the kitchen ones.
Every 2 weeks
Change the sheets
Every week if you like, two is fine.
Mop the floors
Kitchen and bathroom.
Dust
Shelves, the TV, the top of the fridge.
Scrub the shower
Before the limescale settles in.
Every month
Clear out the fridge
Then a quick wipe of the shelves.
Clean the microwave
A bowl of water and lemon, five minutes.
Wash the bin
Inside and the lid.
Clear the shower drain
Before it clears itself, slowly.
Every 3 months
Clean the oven
Easier four times a year than once.
Wash the windows
Inside at least, and the sills.
Turn the mattress
Head to foot, so it wears evenly.
Twice a year
Wash the curtains
Or vacuum them, if they can’t go in.
Sort the wardrobe
Summer out, winter in, and a bag to give away.
Hoover under the bed and sofa
Lost things live there.
Keeping it going
No cleaning day
Every chore keeps its own rhythm, so they come due on different days. A few minutes here and there instead of a lost Saturday.
Late is fine
Tick it whenever you get to it. It comes back that long after you did it, so a late week never snowballs.
Not today? Snooze it
One tap moves it to tomorrow. No red numbers, no guilt.
Clear the list
When everything due is done, you get a little trophy moment. Then nothing until the next thing is due.
