The Right Kitchen Cleaning Order
Pros always clean the kitchen in the same order — top to bottom, left to right.
Step by Step
- Dishes — wash or load dishwasher first
- Appliances — microwave (lemon trick), oven, stovetop
- Worktops — disinfect, degrease
- Sink — baking soda + vinegar, polish the tap
- Cabinets — wipe doors and handles
- Fridge — inside monthly, discard expired food
- Floor — vacuum then wet mop
How Often?
Basic: daily. Thorough: weekly. Deep (oven, fridge): monthly.
