Corey Clauden-Cross • November 1, 2024

Let’s be real—cleaning isn’t everyone’s favorite activity. But what if we told you there are easy, time-saving hacks that can make the process faster, more efficient, and even a little fun? At The Cleaning Tech, we believe in working smarter, not harder. That’s why we’ve rounded up seven genius cleaning hacks that will help you tackle dirt, grime, and clutter like a pro!

1. Use Lemon & Baking Soda to Freshen Your Sink πŸ‹βœ¨


Got a funky-smelling sink? Cut a lemon in half, sprinkle baking soda in the drain, and scrub with the lemon. This natural combo eliminates odors, lifts grime, and leaves your sink smelling fresh!


2. Remove Stubborn Microwave Stains with Steam 🌫️πŸ”₯


Scrubbing a dirty microwave is the worst—but this hack makes it effortless!

βœ” Fill a microwave-safe bowl with water, lemon slices, and a splash of vinegar.

βœ” Microwave for 3-5 minutes until it steams up.

βœ” Let it sit for a minute, then simply wipe away stains with a cloth—no scrubbing needed!


3. The Pillowcase Trick for Dust-Free Ceiling Fans πŸŒ€πŸ›οΈ


Ceiling fan blades collect dust like crazy, but instead of making a mess, try this:

βœ” Slip an old pillowcase over a fan blade.

βœ” Gently pull the dust into the pillowcase, trapping it instead of letting it fall.

βœ” Toss the pillowcase into the wash when you’re done—no dust storm required!


4. Sparkling Shower Doors with a Dryer Sheet πŸšΏπŸ’¦


Hard water stains and soap scum on your glass shower? A dryer sheet is your secret weapon!

βœ” Wet a dryer sheet and rub it over the glass.

βœ” Watch the grime dissolve, leaving a streak-free shine!

βœ” Bonus: It works on chrome fixtures, too!


5. Revive Your Mattress with Baking Soda & Essential Oils πŸ›οΈπŸŒΏ


Mattresses absorb sweat, odors, and dust mites—yikes! Freshen yours up with this easy hack:

βœ” Mix baking soda with a few drops of your favorite essential oil (lavender is great for relaxation!).

βœ” Sprinkle it all over the mattress, let it sit for 30 minutes, then vacuum it up.

βœ” Your bed will smell fresh and feel brand new!


6. Get Rid of Pet Hair with a Rubber Glove 🐢🐱


Struggling with pet hair all over your furniture? No fancy gadgets needed!

βœ” Put on a rubber glove and run your hand over upholstery—the hair clings to it like magic!

βœ” Rinse off the glove and repeat as needed for a fur-free couch.


7. Make Your Own DIY All-Purpose Cleaner 🌿🧼


Ditch the chemical-laden store-bought cleaners! Try this easy, all-natural DIY cleaner:

βœ” Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle.

βœ” Add 10 drops of tea tree or lemon essential oil for extra disinfecting power.

βœ” Use it to clean countertops, sinks, appliances, and more!
