Weekly Cleaning Routines: Monthly Chore Rotation Day

Happy Saturday, friends! We have arrived at the last of our daily cleaning routines – a day dedicated to making sure no corners are left untouched. Welcome to Rotation Day, a day where we take a step back from the specific spaces we've been focusing on from Monday to Friday and dive into tasks that need to be done on a monthly basis.

Our homes are our sanctuaries, and each part plays a vital role in our comfort and happiness. But some chores do not require daily or even weekly attention. That’s where Saturday comes in. We’ve put together a list of tasks for you to rotate through each Saturday of the month. This includes things like washing windows, deep cleaning your fridge, or decluttering the garage. It's time to roll up our sleeves and give these tasks the attention they deserve, making sure our homes remain sparkling and organized in every possible way.

Here a list of chores that can be completed on a month to month basis. Depending on the circumstances, you might even be able to get away with an eight week chore rotation.  The choice is yours.  Prioritize whatever works best for you, your household and your joy factor.

  1. Clean out the refrigerator.
  2. Clean the oven and microwave
  3. Clean the dishwasher.
  4. Clean the washing machine.
  5. Clean the dryer vent.
  6. Clean the bathroom exhaust fan.
  7. Clean the shower curtains.
  8. Clean out your closet
  9. Clean out your car
  10. Clean the blinds.
  11. Vacuum under and behind furniture.
  12. Wash baseboards and walls.
  13. Sweep and mop the garage floor.
  14. Clean the gutters.
  15. Check and replace air filters.

As we rotate through these monthly chores on Saturdays, remember that cleaning is about creating a space where we love to be. By breaking down home maintenance into manageable, daily tasks and tackling a specific chore each Rotation Day, we can foster joy and comfort in our living spaces without feeling overwhelmed. So let's embrace the satisfaction of a well-kept home, one day at a time. As for Sunday...we shall rest.
