How to Get Your Home Ready for Guests Without Spending All Weekend Cleaning
The short list of areas guests actually notice, and the order to tackle them in.
Start where guests spend time
Guests see the entry, the main living area, the kitchen, and one bathroom. Cleaning those four spaces well beats cleaning the whole house halfway.
The 45-minute pass
- Entry: shoes away, floor swept, a clear surface for keys and bags
- Living area: clear surfaces, fluff cushions, quick vacuum of traffic paths
- Kitchen: empty sink, wiped counters, clean stovetop, empty trash
- Guest bathroom: toilet, sink, mirror, fresh towels, empty bin
Small details with big payoff
Wipe fingerprints from switch plates and door handles, clear the bathroom counter down to a couple of items, and open a window for a few minutes. In Seattle's damp months, airing out a room does more for how a home feels than another round of surface wiping.
