One way to do it

Three jobs a week beats a lost weekend

Break the month into four short sessions and the deep clean stops feeling like an event.

Week 1
  • Clean refrigerator
  • Dust ceiling fans
  • Clean dishwasher
Week 2
  • Clean oven
  • Wash windows (inside)
  • Clean baseboards
Week 3
  • Deep clean shower
  • Vacuum under furniture
  • Dust blinds
Week 4
  • Flip mattress
  • Clean air vents
  • Wash trash cans

The grouping is a suggestion, not a rule. Move a job to a different week whenever it suits — what matters is that everything on the sheet gets done once before the month is out.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

  • No! Spread monthly tasks throughout the month. Do a few each week, or dedicate one weekend to tackling the list. Find what works for your schedule.

  • Monthly tasks address areas that collect dust, grime, or wear slowly over time. Regular attention prevents major build-up and extends the life of your home and appliances.

  • Life happens! If you miss a month, prioritize the most visible or impactful tasks (like oven, refrigerator) and catch up on others next month.

  • Set calendar reminders, or assign specific tasks to specific weeks of the month. Better yet, use Tidied to get automatic reminders!
