If you’re constantly wondering why your home doesn’t look tidy, despite the fact you seem to be constantly cleaning and rearranging things, one woman has shared there’s a simple reason for it.
Online content creator @thecleanupcompany shared on TikTok that it’s probably the amount of “clutter” you have in your home that’s making it look less than perfect – so it could be time to get rid of things you don’t actually need anymore. She recommended that you have a “massive declutter” if you want your “home to stay cleaner for longer”.
“Get rid of all that c**p you absolutely do not need”, she urged, saying: “If you haven’t used it in two months you definitely don’t need it”. She said the tidier your home is, the more “time you’ve got to clean because you’re not running round picking up useless s**t”.
She also urged people to “stop overspending” on stuff, because it will just end up as clutter, meaning that you’ll have an untidy home again if you keep buying stuff you don’t need. “Rather than try and do the house all in one go, you’re gonna focus on one room at a time”, she encouraged, saying that it’s more manageable this way.
“Declutter and deep clean one room a day”, and also “take your time” with it to make sure you’ve done a good job. In order to clean, you’ll need black bags “to get rid of all that junk”, along with “a new bucket, some fresh cloths, and a cleaning shopping haul at B&M”, because getting all the products you need is motivation in itself.
“Turn your music up full blast, open your windows, and chuck your gym clothes on”, she encouraged.
The content creator also said if you’re struggling for motivation to watch some of her videos because she can “give you the kick up the a**e you bl**dy need”. She said it’s “impossible” to clean everything in one day, so “declutter, deep clean, and take your time” is the best advice she can give.
“Be ruthless, okay? You don’t need that c**p. You know you don’t need it. Clutter is one of the biggest reasons your home doesn’t feel as clean when you’ve cleaned it because it doesn’t stay tidy and it doesn’t feel organised.”
