<\/p>\n

Have company coming over? Planning on inviting a date in? Just realized your parents are due for a visit?<\/p>\n

Or maybe you just want your apartment look better for your own <\/em>sake.<\/p>\n

No matter the reason, cleaning up your apartment in a jiffy is easier than you may think. Just do these things right now and your space will look instantly cleaner and neater:<\/p>\n

1. Start with a garbage bag.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You’ve got to have your supplies first. Start with a huge garbage bag.<\/p>\n

If your place is really a mess, you might want to wear gloves for this too. Now, go around your entire apartment and instantly throw away everything that’s garbage.<\/p>\n

2. Tackle the dishes.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Chances are, your sink is full of dirty dishes. Tackle these next.<\/p>\n

3. Put away dirty clothes.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Chances are also good that your floor and various surfaces have dirty clothes on them. Clean these up simply by putting them in the hamper.<\/p>\n

4. Straighten.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This one’s pretty straightforward. Walk around your apartment and straighten things like chairs, curtains, pillows and other furniture.<\/p>\n

5. Dust, then vacuum.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Next, dust all free services, then vacuum. When cleaning, you always need to work from top to bottom.<\/p>\n

6. <\/strong>Make your bed.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Making your bed is an instant refresh and will immediately make your space look neater.<\/p>\n

7. Really<\/em> short on time? Grab a box.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Lastly, if time is truly of the essence and you have just minutes to get your house in order, grab a large cardboard box or plastic bin and throw in everything that you can’t find a place for. Unfortunately, this will have to be dealt with later.<\/p>\n

Of course, you can’t have a neat looking apartment if the actual foundation and rooms of your building aren’t up to snuff. Still looking for a place in Flagstaff, Arizona?
