Here's how you clean your apartment without making this a big burden. Read it on!

Accumulation of dust here and there on floor surfaces and pet hair on the carpets are all very common when you are living in an apartment. What people fear the most is cleaning them and maintaining a tidy apartment. When you have a clean apartment for yourself and your family, you are at peace mentally. And, on the other hand, in a clean apartment, you are free from health risks. There's less chance for the bacteria or germs to spread, which suggests that you won't fall sick often.

Having a clean apartment is everyone's dream. So, when buying an apartment, make sure you go for a spacious one. Nowadays, Colombo city apartments are too small, and when you fill-up the available space with furniture and other goods, you almost have zero space.

Apartments by TRI-ZEN are spacious enough. When you have enough space to keep your things, it's easier to clean as well.

You may name this step as 'decluttering'. There may be clothes, toys, bottle lids, dirty dishes and even paper lying around everywhere, so you need to put all these in one place before you start cleaning. If they are unwanted, you may also throw them away in the dustbin. At this point, you will realize that you have had many unnecessary stuff in your apartment, that should have been thrown away a long time ago.

What are non-floor surfaces? This may be the first question that you will get. Tables, shelves and every other flat surface come into this category, and they indeed contain a lot of dust. Remove all the books and other decorative items you've placed on these surfaces first, and then dust them with a wet rag.

If the shelves are made of wood, you will have to use a wood cleaner. Once you are done cleaning, keep the decorative items back on the surfaces.

Here you come to the point where you sweep or vacuum the floor. If your apartment has a carpeted floor, you must use a vacuum cleaner. Without a vacuum cleaner, you will not be able to get rid of all the dust and stuff that is deeply stuck in the carpet.

If you have a hardwood floor, sweep the floor using a broom and first get rid of the dust and hair you have on the floor surface. Then wipe down the floor with a cleaner (you may use a wet mop/rag for this purpose).

Deep cleaning your apartment is a chore! There is no doubt about it. It takes considerable time and effort and takes a good part of your energy as well. Before you start your cleaning session, have a plan to finish the task before a certain time.

If you have achieved your target at the end of the day, reward yourself for the job done well. Also, don't forget to listen to some good music while you clean. It'll be a relaxing experience.
