Waste mismanagement among Filipinos stands at 60.27% in 2014, as stated by a secondary report in nationmaster.com. Waste mismanagement problem especially exhibits its severity for residents living in a condo in the Philippines, because sanitary issues particularly show prominence in a small living space.
You can probably relate to this, especially when cleaning your condo. The crowded spaces where your furniture stands just aggravate the entire cleaning process. Getting through and scrubbing that dirt or stain on your furniture, most of the time, may feel impossible to do.
Pull yourself up by overlooking the challenges that cleaning your condo furniture poses. Patience and determination, coupled with ingenuity, will take you a lot farther than you can ever think of throughout the entire cleaning process.
Hands-On with a Hand-Held Vacuum
The couch in your condominium may feel extra smaller as you move out and about within your tiny living space. Because of this, you may have a difficult time getting the tiniest dirt out of your couch, which may pose a hazardous effect on your health.
Extend efforts in coming up with a way on how to maintain condo furniture at its optimal best, despite having to deal with hurdles along the way. Use a hand-held vacuum to scoot out the crumbs and dust bunnies out of your couch. You can actually do this in one minute once you’ve trained yourself in expertly using this vacuum.
Keep Them Shiny
Keep your stylish condo furniture, such as table tops and cabinets, clean and shiny by wiping off even the most minor fingerprints you may find on them. Use methylated spirits or glass cleaner together with a clean cloth in wiping away those visible marks.
After lots of practice on how to clean condo furniture efficiently, you may then give yourself a pat on the back for accomplishing a simple but very purposeful task, and still have time to do other stuff that matters even more to your day-to-day lifestyle.
Never Overlook Your Bed’s Appearance
Motivate yourself in cleaning your condo. Make it a habit to tidy up your bed when you wake up in the morning. This exercise will make you feel energized and ready to start your day. If you do this often, you may find yourself wanting to do more chores around the house.
Keeping furniture organized even if they are not dirty offers healthy emotional benefits. You’ll start to appreciate the way your condo looks even more. You'll feel happier to live in it if you’re able to keep stuff organized and uncluttered.
Mirroring Clear Visibility
You may choose to multitask when it comes to maintaining your condo furniture’s cleanliness. If you live in DMCI Homes but your sister or other family member lives far away, catch up with her on what’s happening by chatting with her on the phone while wiping your mirror’s smudges using a clean cloth.
If you don't manage your time well, you might find yourself getting stressed out in doing all the things you need to do. And the worst part is, you may realize this only when it’s already too late. Learn to multitask and get things done efficiently. Don’t wait for chores to pile up before taking action.
Disinfectant Solution Does Magic
Get rid of stains in your condo cookware, such as frying pans and spatulas, by soaking them in a lemon disinfectant solution. Let it sit overnight to enable the solution to absorb the grease stains. This way, you won’t have to spend most of your weekends scrubbing off the grease from your cooking tools and miss out doing many fun activities with your family.
Scratch-Free Teak Furniture
A practical way on how to maintain teak furniture, such as a wooden bench, is by keeping it scratch-free. This task can be a challenge since wooden benches are usually placed in your mini condo terrace, making it susceptible to external marks.
Don't fret. Just rub a walnut on the scratches of your outdoor wooden bench and watch in amazement as the marks disappear.
Protect Your Tiles the Right Way
Furniture such as a mini table in your bathroom’s powder room is likely going to produce marks on your floor through harsh contact. Keep your bathroom furniture from scratching the tiled floor by lifting it up instead of dragging it on the floor when cleaning.
If the mini table feels too heavy for you to lift on your own, ask for your loved one or roommate’s help. Don’t be shy to ask for assistance when it comes to maintaining the pretty look of your creatively designed bathroom tiles.
Your Guest Room Matters, Too
Make time to clean your guest room if you’ve got nothing planned for the weekend. You’ll likely need to clean it thoroughly because of accumulated dirt and mold, especially if the room hasn't been used for a long period of time.
Tiny insects use narrow spaces as hiding spots. Position the furniture in your guest room away from the wall to avoid pests, such as cockroaches and rats.
Don’t allow yourself to learn your lesson the hard way. You'll never know how negligence may affect you in the long run. Care for your condo furniture the right way to maintain not only a desirable image for your condo, but also a healthy lifestyle free from illnesses as well.
