Alright, folks, let's be honest. Cleaning isn't exactly anyone's favourite pastime, is it? Especially when you're juggling work, family, and trying to find a spare moment to actually relax. Here at AirFreedom Cleaning Services, serving Newport and Cardiff, we know the struggle is real. That's why we've compiled a list of our top 10 cleaning hacks to save you precious time and a few quid along the way.

We're all about making your life easier, whether you're in a cosy flat in Cardiff or a bustling family home in Newport. So, grab a cuppa, put your feet up (for now!), and let's dive in.
1. Vinegar Power for the Microwave
Tired of scrubbing baked-on food in your microwave? Fill a microwave-safe bowl with a cup of water and a few tablespoons of white vinegar. Microwave for 5 minutes. The steam loosens the grime, making it a breeze to wipe clean. Simple and effective!
2. Lemon Fresh for Your Rubbish Bin
Pesky bin odours? Cut a lemon in half and pop it in the bottom of your bin. It neutralises smells and leaves a fresh, citrus scent. Plus, it's a natural and cheap solution!
3. Squeegee Away Shower Grime
Keep a squeegee in your shower and give the walls a quick wipe after each use. This prevents watermarks and soap scum from building up, saving you hours of scrubbing later.
4. Baking Soda for Stubborn Stains
Baking soda is a cleaning superhero! For stubborn stains on carpets or upholstery, create a paste with water and apply it to the stain. Let it sit for a few hours (or overnight for tough stains) and then vacuum or wipe away.
5. Tumble Dryer Sheets for Dusting
Used tumble dryer sheets are fantastic for dusting! They attract dust and leave a pleasant scent. Perfect for skirting boards, blinds, and those hard-to-reach places.
6. Microfibre Cloths: Your New Best Friend
Invest in a good set of microfibre cloths. They're incredibly effective at picking up dust and dirt, and they can be washed and reused, saving you money on disposable wipes.
7. Organise as You Go
A little bit of tidying throughout the day goes a long way. Put things back where they belong immediately. This prevents clutter from building up and makes cleaning much less daunting.
8. Conquer the Sink with Hot Water and Washing Up Liquid
For a quick sink clean, fill it with hot water and a squirt of washing up liquid. Let items soak while you tackle other tasks. Then, give everything a quick scrub and rinse.
9. Create a Cleaning Schedule
Divide your cleaning tasks into daily, weekly, and monthly chores. Sticking to a schedule helps you stay on top of things and prevents your home from becoming overwhelmingly messy.
10. Call in the Professionals (Occasionally!)
Let's be real, sometimes you just need a break. That's where AirFreedom Cleaning Services comes in! Treat yourself to a professional clean every now and then. We'll take care of the deep cleaning, leaving you with more time to enjoy your life.
