Keeping Your Place Clean is Important in a Big City with a Busy Job and Social Life

City dwellers with busy professional and social lives face unique challenges when it comes to maintaining a clean and organized home. They are often held to a high standard - higher than most, in fact - when it comes to the state of their homes. They experience unexpected visitors and host social events that require a professional presentation.

Keeping a clean home can both further your career and assist in effective networking. Furthermore, keeping a clean home has numerous health, wellness, and social benefits:

• It relieves stress. Sitting among work that needs to be done evidenced by an untidy home results in increased stress, anxiety, and dread. Enjoying an organized and tidy home is relaxing and enjoyable.
• It lends to easy processes. Getting dressed, preparing meals, and packing for weekend trips is much easier and quicker when your home is organized and your items are easy to find.
• It provides allergy and asthma relief. Many people suffering from seasonal allergies find relief from stuffiness, shortness of breath, itchy eyes, sneezing, headaches, and sinus drainage in a clean home.
• It prevents illness. Cleaning your home with disinfects can prevent exposure to harmful bacteria present in the air and on surfaces in your home, such as those that cause the flu, colds, or food poisoning.
• It keeps your environment safe. Slips, trips, and falls are more likely in a cluttered home and escaping during a fire can be difficult when your home is not tidy. Furthermore, the risk of damage from fire increases in an untidy cluttered home.
• It keeps the pests away. Bugs and pests like mice thrive on crumbs and sugary spills. A clean home provides little for pests to feed on, which prevents them from making your home theirs.
• It keeps you active. The act of cleaning your home is physically engaging and good for your health.
• It promotes a healthy diet. Those with a clean home are more likely to prepare meals than to run through the drive through.

However, keeping your home clean and tidy requires a significant time commitment that busy professionals don't always have. Washing dishes, making the bed, washing and folding clothes, cleaning floors, and washing windows take a significant amount of time and effort. A truly clean home is not accomplished during free time on the weekend; it's the result of a dedication of time and effort on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.

Many busy professionals hire a maid service to take care of their routine cleaning needs. One benefit to hiring a maid service is that the client chooses what they would like done and what they prefer to do themselves. A maid service can do several things. They can perform routine cleaning on a weekly, monthly or another basis, or they can perform deep cleaning on a quarterly, annual, or another basis. They can also perform a move in or move out cleaning in an empty condo or home.

Routine cleaning keeps your home in optimal shape for entertaining and unexpected visitors. It provides daily peace of mind without added stress and time commitment. A few of the routine tasks a maid service can take off your to-do list without compromising your busy schedule include:

• Mopping floors
• Vacuuming floors
• Washing windows
• Dusting surfaces, ceiling fans, etc.
• Disinfecting the kitchen
• Bathroom cleaning
• General organization
• General cleaning

Deep cleaning provides relief from your quarterly or annual cleaning projects, such as washing windows and walls, closet organization, cupboard and refrigerator cleaning, and more. Quarterly and annual deep cleaning promote a healthy environment by removing allergens, mold, harmful bacteria, and other pathogens.

Move in and move out cleaning are beneficial for a new home or condo owners who want to ensure the home is thoroughly cleaned before moving their belongings in or out. Professionals who put in long hours and network after hours often struggle to find adequate time for the cleaning that is required before and after the sale or purchase of a home in the small time frame allowed. A cleaning service can assist with this process in the time frame requested.

In conclusion, keeping a clean and organized home makes your morning routine easier, meaning you arrive to work feeling organized and prepared for your day without unexpected delays. It promotes a healthy lifestyle, which means you can maintain your attendance at work with fewer missed days and can maintain your professional appearance with a healthy diet and low level of stress. A clean and tidy home provides a positive first impression for prospective clients, networking contacts, and peers and provides motivation to entertain, enriching personal relationships. Finally, a maid or cleaning service can provide the time commitment professionals often lack and clean to your specifications, enhancing your personal style and minimizing clutter and dust.
