If you want to have a clean apartment, organizing your clean-up job is a must.  First, make it a habit to remove dust regularly. Use the vacuum cleaner on all surfaces and hidden nooks and crannies.   Carpeting should be vacuumed weekly while hard floors should be scrubbed at least once a month.  Kitchen floors should be scrubbed more at least once a week.     Trash should be taken out daily from the house.  You must always use trash bags to line the waste baskets.  Kitchen trash is particularly annoying.  So never leave it in the trash bin for more than 24 hours.    Cleaning bathrooms is a challenge. You have to clean them every week to maintain good sanitation.  Use disinfectant and tile cleaners to remove grime and stains.   The bedroom should be thoroughly cleaned weekly.  Never leave an unmade bed because the bedroom will look untidy.   Always remove clutter from the floors, bed, and dressers.  You need to have a small storage box for your knick knacks.   Make it a habit to clean your apartment in order to minimize your clean-up job.  Remember, a general cleaning is more difficult so make it a point to do routine cleaning daily to keep your apartment in top shape.
