December is one of the most difficult months of the year. It is on this occasion that the results of the year are summed up, holidays in kindergarten and school, traditional “Christmas trees” and corporate parties, as well as work rushes before the long holidays... How to manage everything? If you have been thinking about providing cleaning home professionals, now is the time! We offer you a general cleaning algorithm from cleaning company specialists. And how to carry it out - on your own or with the help of experts - is up to you!

“Calling professional cleaners to do a general cleaning of the house before the holidays will allow you to free up a lot of time for more creative things,” says Olga Malakhova, chief technologist of the “Simply Cleaning” company. “Getting things in order before guests arrive or tidying up after they leave won’t be too difficult if "Major general cleaning was done efficiently and thoroughly."

To create a New Year's atmosphere in your home, Christmas tree decorations, glowing garlands and shiny hanging tinsel are not enough. To make your home look fabulous, it is important to clean your apartment properly. In addition to its direct purpose, cleaning before the New Year has a symbolic meaning: right now it is important to get rid of unnecessary things, useless little things that have long become useless garbage.

Sort through baby clothes and donate items that are too small to the children of friends or family. Clear your document folders of old bills, your living room shelves of receipts and notes about things you “don’t forget.” Be thorough: don’t skimp on things you haven’t worn for several years. Review the contents of your kitchen cabinets: throw them away first broken dishes, jars and cones, old containers and a collection of disposable sushi chopsticks. Special attention take some time, where a lot of things often accumulate that no one has needed for a long time.

How can professionals help? Get to the most inaccessible places, clean the ventilation grilles, the top and inner surfaces of kitchen furniture, the hood and household appliances. Carry out dry cleaning of carpets and mattresses.

Before you start cleaning, remove and wash the curtains - they can only be hung in the cleaned room. When cleaning each room, move strictly from top to bottom, this is one of the basic rules. Dust from the upper surfaces should not fall on the clean floor, washed windowsill and walls. Start by removing dust from lampshades, consoles, tall furniture, mirror frames, and mezzanines. Dust from the upper surfaces should be swept into a dustpan and not onto the floor to avoid adding dirt. If there is little dust, it will be enough to wipe the surfaces with a damp microfiber cloth.

How can professionals help? Cleaning specialists must wipe not only horizontal, but also vertical surfaces and certainly wipe the furniture from the inside. To extend the life of the furniture, it is additionally polished after cleaning. Professional spring cleaning includes thorough cleaning of radiators, pipes, switches and sockets, doors and double-glazed windows.

Every housewife knows how difficult it is to keep the kitchen clean, and before the New Year it is simply necessary to put it in order. You should act according to the general algorithm: top to bottom. Dust on cabinets, ceilings, chandeliers and cleaning the hood is a top priority.

After you have inspected the contents of your kitchen cabinets, you need to remove and wash all the dishes and appliances, wipe down the shelves, dry out the cabinets and put everything back in its place. Be sure to wash the stove, kitchen apron, window sill, switches and sockets, door, and then the floors.

There are several important items in the kitchen that should be given special attention:

Hood. Ideally, it should be disassembled and cleaned. If this is difficult to do, then carefully remove the dirt.

Fridge. Cleaning the outside is as easy as shelling pears. But to wash the inside, you should take out all the food, thoroughly rinse all the shelves and drawers, wipe it dry, and only then return the food to the refrigerator.

Oven, microwave. For self-cleaning, dishwashing detergent is not enough - you need to purchase a stronger one - or use a mixture of soda and vinegar, ammonia.

How can professionals help? Get rid of grease and soot deposits on hoods and other household appliances using special products. Remove dirt from the refrigerator seal using professional brushes. Remove, clean and replace buttons, handles and levers, which can be washed separately. Clean the sink from traces of rust.

Fill your bidet, toilet, shower, and bathtub with detergent to give it time to take effect. Remove and soak the ventilation grille in a detergent solution. Wash lampshades, tiles, radiators, remove dust from all surfaces, moving from top to bottom. Clean the sanitary fixtures and mop the floors, paying attention to hard-to-reach areas behind the toilet and under the bathtub where a lot of dirt accumulates.

How can professionals help? Free your plumbing from unpleasant odor, which is hidden in old dirt in hard-to-reach places. Clean tile joints.

I do this kind of cleaning every Saturday; if you don’t neglect the apartment, then cleaning is much easier. And before the New Year it is better to spend time on festive table.

Yes, in principle, such cleaning is needed regularly, and not just before the New Year. It’s better to carry out such cleanings a little ahead of time, and not when everyone is in an urge to clean up before New Year’s Eve.)

Discussion

"to us" - no. As always, I bought food for the week: bread, milk, toilet paper:). But in general, looking at certain carts, one gets the impression that people are going to eat 5 times more than their usual ration for New Year's Eve :) But now there are fewer of them - they buy more crap like New Year's Eve balloons and holiday packages. Well, gifts - toys for children, someone carries equipment, all sorts of smartphones, TVs, microwaves, multi-cookers, someone - sports equipment (I shop at Auchan, they have it all).

I’m always surprised that someone goes to a hypermarket for a carton of milk :) There’s just one square worth of space there - until you get in, until you get to that milk, until you get back to the checkout... And the queues - if there are people standing, then they’re full carts.
In general, I go to the nearest store, next door, for 1-10 types of products. Not many people)))

I could completely clean the apartment myself from the age of 12, including washing the plumbing, the stove, the walls. Yes, and I even spoiled the cat - she doesn’t want to play with the old toy anymore, I’m buying a new one. Nowadays it’s very difficult for me to clean the apartment, but I’m never ashamed that I'm a mess.

Never. My mother always told me that “Take care of your hands, Lena, and this is not for you”:)
Well, I believed her...)))

I don’t teach my daughter either....why should I? If she is poor, she will learn on her own. Otherwise it won't be useful.

1. Mom taught, and grandmothers taught in the summer. At the age of 5-6, my mother already tried to involve me in cleaning; from the age of 10 until my sister grew up (that is, until I was 13-14), cleaning my things, washing dishes and floors 2-3 times a week were part of my responsibilities. I still hate doing all of the above. As soon as my youngest grew up, I delegated the cleaning to her and since then I have been avoiding cleaning chores in every possible way.
2. Now our common rooms are almost always clean, because... Once a week the housekeeper comes and licks the whole house. There are no small children or animals (except aquarium ones) in the house, and my teenage daughter has her own room, which I don’t look into unless absolutely necessary - chaos reigns there, of course, by the middle of the week, but no one sees it :))

I start cleaning by disassembling things, putting everything dirty into the machine, then in the kitchen the dishes are washed, food is put on, the floor is vacuumed, the floor is wiped off, the dust is wiped off, at the same time I monitor the preparation of food, laundry is hung out, another batch of laundry is started, the toilet, bathtub, sink are washed, The remaining dishes from cooking are washed. Um, what else do they do at home? :) All other little things are done during the cleaning process and at the request of the cleaner :)

Every thing that catches my eye I take to its place, but in a special way :) For example, a sock caught my eye - I grab it and other things in addition, the place of which is on the way to the place of the sock :) I take each thing in my hands and mentally I tell you where it should be taken - I build a route :)) Moreover, for small garbage such as broken toys, candy wrappers, scraps of newspapers and other things, at the beginning of cleaning I bring a clean garbage bag into the room so that I don’t have to run to the kitchen :))) Then a vacuum cleaner and dust, curtains fix it, clean tablecloth one hundred percent and EVERYTHING! :)
And if I urgently and quickly need to clear things up, I shovel everything from the table into cardboard boxes - one from under the TV, the other from under the computer :))) 5 minutes of time + 10 minutes for dust and a vacuum cleaner :)))) After the guests leave raking it up :))))))))))

I do general cleaning only 2 times a year, before the New Year and Easter. I tidy up the apartment the previous evening before leaving for the dacha, and from the dacha immediately before leaving and always arrive to a clean house.

Discussion

We've said a lot - maybe I'll repeat it. But my husband and I came to the conclusion:
1. The weather in a house is determined by the relationships between the people living in it. And not the condition of the floor, pots and lack of dust.
2. Since each of us considers himself (remotely) an animal.. (I am a cat, my husband is a dog), we involuntarily try to “mark” our territory. For example, I feel uncomfortable in a “museum apartment”, and my husband tried to live like that and says he didn’t like it... So, from a certain point of view, I am more than calm about some of my things that are “out of place.” But I can’t stand extra trash in the kitchen. The kitchen is my kingdom, and only I put things in order there (always with pleasure).

Sloppy wife. I'm trying to find a housekeeper.

Julia: | December 25th, 2016 | 3:56 pm

I started cleaning last weekend. She took her husband as her assistant. I'm not trying to “eat the elephant” in one sitting. I wrote a list of things to do, roughly scheduled by day. During the week I do little things (wash the kettle, water filter jug, microwave, glass cabinet doors, refrigerator slowly over two days, etc.). On weekends, my husband did more serious and time-consuming tasks (he washed the plastic ceilings and tiles in the bathroom and kitchen, and topped off the furniture in the kitchen). I have lists of dishes for various occasions in my duty notebook. Therefore, there are no problems with the menu for the holiday table. I open it and choose what’s on this moment I want to cook, and I immediately write down lists of what products I have and what I need to buy. And I write down by day what and when can be defrosted, prepared and cooked, so that there is as much free time as possible during the holiday. And of course, I involve my husband in helping with cooking (clean, cut, open, wash, etc.). In general, the only thing left for cleaning today is to wash the closet doors in the room. And the finish.)

I’ve gotten used to snatching a few minutes between watching movies online - the Internet is weak and the movie needs to load, I’m still waiting - so I’ll go wash the dishes for a few minutes or run around the room with a vacuum cleaner or have time to do the laundry. I still watch a movie - I iron clothes or sort out a closet, there is only one room for now - you can see and hear everything.

Julia: | December 11th, 2014 | 7:28 am

I really liked the Fly system. It turns out that I have already used some of it. For example, for many years I have been trying to free up weekends from household chores, doing a little in the evenings after work on the family calendar so as not to forget anything. I haven't been able to free up time for hobbies yet. I read about the time tracking system, now I will learn it.
My motivation for cleaning: “I am a princess, my apartment is my palace, my palace should be clean and cozy.” When I start doing household chores, I imagine how good, fresh, pleasant it will be when I get everything done, this helps.

Marina: | December 11th, 2014 | 6:34 dp

General cleaning before the New Year: how to get it polished?

General cleaning is an inevitable event on the eve of the New Year. A catastrophic lack of time, a large amount of work and the pre-holiday bustle - all these factors delay the start of the cleaning process, and when there are already two or three days left before receiving guests, we will be guided by the principle “eyes are afraid, hands are busy.”

General cleaning: basic rules

♦ Good mood. Pre-New Year's cleaning is not an easy task, but you can psychologically prepare for it. Firstly, treat work not as a duty, but as useful training or an intricate game. Secondly, involve household members and distribute the scope of activities. If you like to do it alone, then send family members to do the shopping and gifts. To set the mood, we turn on our favorite music or TV, but in the background. Cleaning, by the way, is a great opportunity to tidy up not only your apartment, but also your thoughts.

♦ When cleaning, it is important to make a plan of where to start and what to concentrate on. We don’t get scattered and don’t waste energy on everything. We divide the rooms into zones and begin to systematically clean out one closet after another. We remember that the feeling of order for outsiders, first of all, is clean horizontal surfaces, that is, there should be nothing superfluous on open shelves and tables. However, for internal comfort, cleanliness and order are also important in places hidden from view - dressing rooms, shelving. It would be right if every adult member of the family spruced up their closets. We get rid of excess, unnecessary clothes - we collect them in bags, which, when appropriate, we distribute to friends or to help centers for those in need. During cleaning, we sort dirty things from clean ones. We put the first ones in the washing machine, and put the second ones in cabinets.

♦ Various containers and drawers will be helpful in the household; they perfectly store things that individually take up a lot of space or visually give a feeling of disorder. Boxes of different sizes are suitable for small items - pencils, shoelaces - and for bulky items - shoes, bags, etc. Vacuum bags are indispensable for seasonal clothing; they are stored on the top shelves of mezzanines and closets. We also place additional sets of pillows, blankets and other bedding items in such packages. Wardrobe items packed in bags in this way take up much less space than in their usual form.

♦ We wipe off dust from chandeliers, cornices, upper shelves, that is, places that cannot be reached during daily or weekly cleaning. Cleaning the leaves indoor plants, polish furniture, wipe the upholstery of upholstered furniture and chairs; We remove dust from household electronics - computers, TVs, home theaters. We use special sprays or wipes for them - they perfectly remove static dust and allow for a long time keep electrical equipment from being deposited.

♦ If possible, it would be a good idea to refresh the curtains and tulle - a lot of dust also settles on them. We wash mirrors and glass surfaces with special products. We change capes, bedspreads, and covers on furniture.

♦ Before general cleaning, we think about a place for seating guests, a recreation area and games for children. New year's night involves the invitees staying in the house for a long time, so there should be more space for movement. During this time, we remove bedside tables, tables - everything that blocks the passages, the center of the rooms. If the presence of small children is expected, then we carefully inspect the lower parts of the shelves and slides - we remove small parts from them, objects that can harm the kids; We close the sockets with plugs.

♦ The kitchen is a very important place for the housewife, especially on the eve of the New Year's celebration. Even before the main cooking process, it is necessary to put things in order in the kitchen. We defrost and wash the refrigerator, clean stains and grease from not only the stove and microwave, but also other household appliances, furniture facades, and panels. We prepare the dishes necessary for the holiday: pre-polished cutlery and washed dinnerware will make it easier to set the table on New Year's Day.

♦ Don’t forget about the hallway and bathroom. In the hall we clear space from shoes, clean them, put them in boxes; We do the same with other accessories, leaving only the necessary things for the coming days. We make sure to provide free hangers and shelves in the closets for the clothes of future guests. In the bathroom, we clean the plumbing fixtures and tiles from dirt and plaque, and clear the shelves of excess or empty bottles of shampoos, masks, and gels. It is also better to clean the washing machine.

♦ At the end of cleaning the entire apartment, we once again wipe the dust from the surfaces, vacuum and wash the floors. After this, the room will be clean and pleasing to the eye. This type of cleaning will not take as much time as it seems at first. But only under one condition - if there are no distracting maneuvers: conversations, tea drinking, frequent moments of rest. It is better to immediately determine for yourself the end time of work. Such home time management will effectively distribute energy and time before the main celebration.
