[ITEM 4] QUESTION: Deep cleaning: how to distribute tasks by room?

Answer

Evenly distributing tasks by room during deep cleaning helps avoid chaos and wasted time. When you enter an apartment with the intention of cleaning everything at once, there is a high risk of scattering your efforts and failing to finish any single area. To prevent this, you need to adhere to a strategic approach to distributing the workload between rooms.

The famous eighty-twenty rule works great in space organization, according to which a small portion of effort yields the greatest result. First, solve two or three main problems in the apartment that cause you the most discomfort, whether it is a neglected storage system, dim lighting due to dusty lamp shades, or ingrained dirt in high-traffic areas.

After eliminating the main pain points, you can move on to a sequential work-through of the rooms using the following principle.

Start with living rooms, where cleaning goes the fastest due to a minimum of wet areas.
Move on to the kitchen, which requires more time to fight grease and disinfect work surfaces.
Finish the process with the bathrooms and hallway, where maximum street dirt and microbes accumulate.

This method guarantees that even if you unexpectedly run out of time or energy, the most important and noticeable areas of the house will already be impeccably clean, ensuring overall visual order and coziness.
