Keeping your home clean can feel overwhelming when you don’t know what to tackle and when. Some chores need attention daily, while others can be done weekly, monthly, or even seasonally. At Best Day Housecleaning, we’ve put together a simple guide to help you stay on top of cleaning without overdoing it.

These tasks help keep your home livable and prevent messes from piling up:
- Wipe down kitchen counters and dining surfaces
- Wash dishes or load the dishwasher

- Vacuum and mop all floors
- Dust furniture, shelves, and baseboards
