How to make a post party clean-up easier?
Proper planning before a party will make your life so much easier when you start cleaning it later on. Preparation is crucial as it directly impacts the amount of mess you’ll be dealing with after the guests are gone. Here’s what you can do to make a post party clean-up easier:
- Keep trash cans and dirty dishes trays where all guests can easily reach them. If you’re using recyclables, don’t forget to place separate bins for disposing of those. Make sure your dishwasher is empty and ready to load before the party begins. This way you can clean up a bit throughout the evening and be done with dirty dishes before the last guest is out.
- Cover every table with a cloth. Tablecloths are perfect for parties because they protect surfaces from spills, food bits or smears, and you can get them in different, fun designs. They’re easy to clean too: simply shake out the tablecloth and wash it afterward. Bonus tip: do the same with upholstery
- Keep an emergency cleaning kit close at hand. Being prepared for mishaps with food and drinks will prevent bigger disasters. The sooner you address the spillage or stain, the better chance you have at getting rid of it.Â
- If you own a white carpet, consider temporarily moving it to another room. As far away as possible from red wine and other potentially problematic drinks or foods you’re serving at the party. Same goes for other sensitive items that are hard to clean.
How do you clean up after a party fast?
As we’ve already established, a solid pre-party organization and prep will help immensely when you get to post-party cleaning. Speed things up even more by following these tips:Â
- To clean up quickly and efficiently, involve your whole family in the process. The best way to go about it is to sit down and agree on a cleaning schedule everyone is comfortable with.Â
- Washing the dishes should be quick, especially if you cleaned on the go during the party and loaded the dishwasher. All that’s left to do is push the button and let it clean. When it comes to stubborn stains, rinse the dishes with a mixture of warm water and white vinegar for best results.
- Apply a non-gel toothpaste to eliminate water rings. This quick cleaning trick is super useful for when people forget to use coasters.
- Be careful when you clean broken glass. After sweeping the majority of the shards with a brush and dustpan, you can trap the challenging tiny ones in bread slices, wrap those into newspaper and throw them away.
