Of all the rooms in our home, none generally see as much usage as the kitchen. It is not only where we cook our meals and often eat them, but often a place where we entertain guests and spend time with our families.
All of this use can often leave the kitchen in quite a mess. Keeping it clean is very important, but not always the easiest. But thankfully, there are some effective hacks that can help your kitchen stay spotless each and every day, and this article is going to take a closer look at a few of them.
Don’t Forget About the Sink and Drains

One area that many people forget to clean in their kitchen is the sink and drains. We may simply ignore it altogether, or simply run some water in it every now and then and believe it’s clean. But over time, these can become filthy and not only look bad, but potentially damage your plumbing and fill your kitchen with an awful smell.
Food, oil, debris, and various other things are often put in your sink and down your drain, and can easily lead to clogs and other issues. To prevent this, make an effort to bring in a drain cleaning service every now and then. In between these visits, there are things you can do as well, such as pouring near-boiling water down your drain weekly, or using a drain cleaner once in a while.
Wipe Down Handles/Knobs and Other High-Touch Surfaces
We might clean the counter, cabinet doors, and various other surfaces, but when is the last time you have actually cleaned the cabinet handles or knobs? These are often an afterthought, despite how many times they are touched and interacted with on a daily basis.
The ways to clean cabinet knobs and pulls can depend on how they look and what sort of material they are, but is often as simple as wiping them down with a cleaner, or removing them and soaking/cleaning them in a sink. Any way you can get them clean works, and you should do this relatively often as they are touched dozens of times each and every day.
Watch for Development of Clutter
One major cause of mess in a kitchen is clutter. It begins by leaving one or two things out, and soon enough all of your table and counter space is full of items. This can be anything from dishes, to containers, to appliances, to food packages, and anything in between.
This clutter can really make your space look like a mess, even if it is relatively clean. You need to be on the lookout for the starting stages of clutter, and nip it before it becomes a problem. This is often as easy as spending a minute or two putting things away each and every day, to not allow a mess to pile up. Even if you have a small kitchen, it is possible to declutter it with a little bit of time and effort.
In conclusion, we hope that this article has been able to help you ensure your kitchen is spotless, each and every day.
