What The Weekly Cleaning Schedule Looks Like
First thing every day I would recommend doing your 5 things you can do every day for a cleaner home. They will only take about 15 minutes.
Then, get started on your weekly cleaning schedule. The following is just an example.
Monday
- Clean bathroom sinks & handles
- Clean shower & bathtub
- Clean & disinfect toilet
- Wash towels
- Mop bathroom floor
Tuesday
- Clean and disinfect kitchen counters
- Clean sink
- Clean and organize fridge
- Sweep and mop kitchen floor
Plus, then you can add in your own weekly cleaning that needs to happen. So if your oven is extra dirty you can add in deep cleaning your oven.

Tips For Weekend Cleaning
On the weekend I don’t really do a lot of deep cleaning. I just try to maintain a decently clean home.
For me, I clean up the kitchen, wipe down bathrooms, make my bed, sweep downstairs, and sometimes run a load of laundry.
If you don’t know where to start for daily cleaning you can read about 5 things you can do every day for a cleaner home.
By doing these 5 tasks I feel like my home stays picked up. I never feel like my house gets out of control or too messy.
I recommend you have a short list of household tasks to do every weekend.
Cleaning Checklist For Your Phone
If you would prefer to have a cleaning checklist on your phone instead of a printable checklist then you can see here how I create my own checklist using the cozi app. It’s easy and works great.
Whether you use a printable or an app to keep track of your cleaning tasks you will love how clean your home feels once you establish a schedule.

How long will it take to do the weekly cleaning?
The time spent cleaning your home will vary based on the size of your house and how easy it is to clean. On average I spend about 30 minutes a day on deep cleaning tasks like the kitchen or bathroom.
What happens if I miss a day?
No worries! That’s the beauty of this 7-day cleaning schedule system. If you don’t deep clean the bedroom for one week it’s not a big deal. The rest of the house will still stay clean even if you miss a day.
