The bathroom is one of the busiest rooms in any home, and keeping it clean can feel like a never-ending task. From water spots on the sink to grime in the shower, it's easy for messes to build up. However, with a consistent cleaning schedule and the right products, you can maintain a fresh and sparkling bathroom without spending hours scrubbing.
Here's a simple manageable bathroom cleaning schedule to keep your space fresh and hygienic all the time:
Daily Bathroom Cleaning Routine (5-10 minutes)
Keeping up with daily tasks will prevent grime and dirt from building up over time.
What to do:
- Wipe Down Countertops & Sink: Spray with Nellie's All-Purpose Cleaner and wipe down with a Swedish Dishcloth to remove toothpaste splatters and water stains.
- Quick Toilet Touch-Up: Use Nellie's Toilet Bowl Cleaner to give the toilet bowl a quick scrub and wipe the seat and handle with a cloth.
- Clean Mirrors: Spray mirrors with All-Purpose Cleaner and wipe with a cloth for a spotless reflection.
- Hang Towels Properly: Ensure towels are hung up to dry to avoid mildew.
- Empty Trash (If Needed): Dispose of any trash if the bin is full.
Weekly Bathroom Cleaning Routine (20-30 Minutes)
A deep clean once a week helps maintain hygiene and tackles spots you might miss during daily clean-ups.
What to do:
- Scrub the Shower & Tub: Apply Nellie's Shower & Bath Cleaner to tackle soap scum and grime. Let it sit for a few minutes before scrubbing with a non-abrasive brush.
- Mop the Floors: Use Nellie's Floor Care for a sparkling clean floor without harsh chemicals. Focus on corners and behind the toilet.

Monthly Bathroom Cleaning Routine (30-45 Minutes)
