Until someone out there introduces a self-cleaning office, most of us will continue to tackle the less-than-thrilling task of cleaning our offices each week.

Still, you can make the weekly routine more pleasant and shave precious moments off your overall cleaning time in the process.

Vacuum carpets weekly

To suck up all the dirt and dust hidden between the fibers, you’ll need to spend about 20 seconds or so going back and forth over each area of a carpet or rug. If someone in your office has allergies or asthma, you’ll want to be meticulous about this task.

Resolve to dust the right way.

Don’t just move dust from one place to another – capture and remove it. The feather duster your staff may have used sent dust into the air, but the dust eventually settled back down where it came from. Today’s more effective tools of choice: a vacuum attachment to suck up the dirt and allergens, or simply a dampened clean cloth to which the fluffy stuff sticks.

Sanitize the toilet.

Squeeze some of the toilet-bowl cleaner around the inside of the bowl and under the rim. Use a long-handled toilet brush to swish the cleaner around the bowl, under the edge, and as far into the trap as possible. Let it sit for several minutes.

Tame soap scum.

The soapy buildup makes for unsightly baths. Spray the shower or tub and sink with a tub, tile and sink cleaner. Allow sitting for several minutes and break up the tough stuff; wipe dry with paper towels.

Change the curtain linens each week.

Send curtain linens for a spin in the hottest water safe for the fabric, add fabric safe bleach (either colorfast or chlorine).
