Try these proven tips for getting the job done faster and more efficiently:

• Remove clutter from the floors and other surfaces before you start cleaning.

• Clean from top to bottom. Start with the cobwebs near the ceiling. Then dust the ceiling fans, tops of bookcases, and other higher-up surfaces. Work your way down. Clean the floors last.

• Instead of removing everything from surfaces, move everything to the right to clean the laft side, and vice versa.

• After spraying on a cleaning product, wait a few minutes to allow the product to do its job.

• Try not to get distracted when you are cleaning.

• Clean each room in a clockwise direction, starting from the door.

• Do jobs in the same order each time and cleaning will become automatic.

Plan 1 All at Once.

This traditional approach to quickly cleaning works well for people who have two or more days off each week and either enjoy cleaning or enjoy the satisfaction that comes from cleaning the whole house from top to bottom.

Plan 2: One Task a Day.

Post a list on necessary cleaning tasks on your refrigerator. Do one task each day. This is a good approach for people who don't like routines.

Plan 3: 30 Minutes a Day

Tend to put off chores? Spend 30 minutes each day on one room or one whole-house cleaning task. One possible daily schedule:

Day 1 Kitchen

Day 2 Bathroom

Day 3 Living room, family room, or dining room

Day 4 Bedrooms

Day 5 Office, entryways

Day 6 Laundry room

Day 7 Rest

Or you could arrange a task-orientated schedule, like dusting and polishing the furniture in every room one day, for example.
