By Day, Week, Month And Season

Because you don’t want to miss a thing.

The whole thing about chores is that they’re really not very fun. And when we say fun, we mean like in the traditional way. Some people really enjoy chores. They get a thrill from organizing. The satisfaction of having streak-free stainless steel appliances and completely transparent windows is enough to get them through the week. But most people find fun elsewhere. You know, going dancing or playing board games or taking a bike ride or enjoying a cocktail on a sunny patio.

Importance of having a household chore list

We’re talking to you guys, those who don’t find the cleaning to be enjoyable. We get it. But if you have a list and stick to it, no matter what you’re doing, things tend to get done. They even may get done efficiently, once you own all the proper tools and get the hang of the general order of operations. So we’re gifting you this massive cleaning guide and checklist in hope that you will embrace it, and maybe even find the joy in cleaning. If not, that’s cool (it’s a big ask).

But you’ll at least be able to bask in the freshness of your home once you’ve begrudgingly completed all (or most) of these tasks.

So brace yourself, friends. Here is our ultimate household chores list, divided up by weekly, monthly and seasonal chores—and further split up by room, for your cleaning pleasure. You received ten million gold stars on your chore tracker calendar if you get through the entire thing. (Plus you’ll gain the peace of mind that you live in the most spotless house on the block, and maybe even in the entire neighborhood!)

Daily cleaning schedule + checklist

Living areas

  • Pick up your stuff.

    • How many pairs of shoes do you have occupying corners and lurking beneath tables?
    • What’s up with all those cords? Are you actively using them to charge anything? Designate them a drawer or basket (anywhere but that dreadful tangled nest on the floor).
    • Why all the water glasses? Try to use the same one all week, we dare you. Bring the rest into the kitchen, wash them and put them away.
    • Laundry. Do it, and actually put it away. The putting it away is the hard part.
    • Organize unruly piles of accumulated mail and papers.
    • Put away (most of) your kid’s and pet’s toys at the end of each day. They likely won’t stay organized long, but enjoy that brief, blissful moment while they are.
  • Mind your couch.

    • Shake out, fluff and/or refold blankets and pillows regularly, especially if you took a recent couch nap, had company over or your pet’s been spending long hours on them.
    • Hit the couch, pillows and blankets with some Febreze Fabric spray to freshen up the scene.
  • Un-smudge the electronics.
    • Are there fingerprints all over your television, iPad, laptop screen and remote control? Give them a gentle wipe down with a microfiber rag and some DIY window cleaner. (*Never spray cleaning solution directly onto your electronics!)
  • Manage pet hair + dander.
    • Staying on top of cleaning up after your pet is crucial to having a reasonably clean home. Hit their beds and favorite dwellings with a handheld vacuum or vacuum hose attachment often.
    • If you’ve got carpet or rugs and also pets, you should run a quick vacuum over it every day (or at least every other day!).

Kitchen

  • Wash all of your dishes.
    • It’s really easy to just toss the dishes in the sink and walk away, but you don’t want to wake up tomorrow morning to yesterday’s dishes. That’s just a bad habit.
    • We recommend washing your dishes as you go, or at least loading them in the dishwasher and running it at the end of every day, if not after each meal. Dawn Platinum Powerwash Dish Spray is great for staying on top of dishes—just spray, wipe, and rinse—done!
  • Wipe down your countertops.
    • We like to keep a diluted white vinegar spray or a multipurpose surface cleaner under the kitchen sink for wiping down everything from countertops and cabinets to stainless steel appliances and stovetops.
    • Don’t let crumbs sit and sauces congeal—be proactive. Otherwise you end up with sticky, stubborn stains and potentially curious, opportunistic ants.
  • Clean your stovetop and knobs.
    • Stovetop grease splatters often have impressive range, so be sure to hit the backsplash, cabinets and countertops surrounding your stove post-meal, as well.
    • We give you permission to clean the burners less often (see our weekly cleaning schedule + checklist), unless you get them majorly filthy and they could present a fire hazard for your next meal (or at the very least, a smoky situation that will leave your house a stinky mess).
  • Wipe out any exploded items from the microwave.
    • It’s tempting to just close the microwave door and walk away, but stop right there. If your microwave looks like a murder scene, give it a wipe before the mess has time to sit and harden. You’ll be glad you did.
  • Wash out pet food bowls regularly.
    • Do their dishes, just like you’d do your own.
  • If you see sticky, greasy fingerprints on stainless steel items and appliances, hit them with a spritz of your diluted white vinegar, and buff them clean with a microfiber rag.

Bedroom

  • Make your bed like an adult.
    • Are your sheets clean? When’s the last time you washed your duvet? Your pillow cases? Fluff those decorative pillows.
  • Mind your bedside table.
    • Again with the water glasses! Limit yourself to just one, and bring the rest into the kitchen to clean.
    • If it’s dusty, dust it. You’re breathing all that stuff into your lungs while you sleep.
  • You’ve probably got a laundry situation somewhere in here. Whether it’s dirty clothes on the floor or cleanish clothes you intend to wear again in the near future, tend to it, and don’t let it grow out of control. You’ve got dressers and closets for a reason.

Bathroom

  • Be sure to always run the exhaust fan when showering or taking a bath, then let it run for about 30 minutes afterward to eliminate lingering humidity that could cause future mold or mildew to develop.
  • Wipe any toothpaste splatter from the sink basin or faucet hardware.
  • Spot treat countertop stains from makeup, lotion, hair products or toothpaste.
  • Is the toilet paper roll empty? Change it.
  • Don’t let dirty clothes (especially sweaty gym clothes) sit in piles on the bathroom floor, adding potential humidity to the room.
  • Use a Swiffer Dry Mop to get rid of loose dust bunnies and hair balls on your bathroom floor.

Weekly cleaning schedule + checklist

Living areas

  • Sweep, mop + dust.
    • Uh oh, is that too much work? If you do these things regularly and often, it’ll be a breeze. Pick one day of the week to do these chores, and stick to it.
    • We like to use Swiffer 2-in-1 Dry + Wet Mop to streamline this scenario. The dry mop collects and traps dust, hair and debris from the floor, then the wet mop pad allows you to easily mop without having to mess with a bucket. You can just dispose of both the dry and wet mop pads when you’re done.
    • Use a Swiffer Duster to hit your walls, blinds, electronics, shelves, baseboards and doors. Its dust-lock adhesive material actually grabs debris, instead of just moving it around or sending it airborne.
    • There’s even a Swiffer Dusters Heavy Duty Super Extender model for reaching ceiling fan blades, light fixtures, hard-to-reach corners and the tops of bookcases.
  • Vacuum your couch.
    • Got pets? Definitely do this weekly. Be sure to get beneath the pillows, in the crevices and zippers, plus the arms and sides.
    • Hit the couch, pillows and blankets with some Febreze Fabric spray to freshen up the scene.
  • Launder your pet’s bed.
    • You can also wash their toys with white vinegar to neutralize dog-breath smells.
  • Dust (that’s right!), and water your plants.
    • Careful not to let standing water settle in the bases of your plants’ pots.
  • Organize and wipe down your coffee and end tables.
    • Hooray for decluttering! Untangle cords, sort mail and toss unnecessary stuff.

Kitchen

  • Sweep + mop.
    • Kitchen floors can get grimy fast, but they’re usually the easiest to clean.
  • Wipe down the exterior of your cabinets.
    • We like to keep a diluted white vinegar spray under the kitchen sink for wiping down everything from countertops and cabinets to stainless steel appliances and stovetops.
    • Don’t let grease smears sit and sauces congeal. Be proactive!
  • Clean your stove burners.
    • Yes, it’s time to address those crusty, burnt bits lingering beneath the burners. You’ll be glad you did next time you go to cook a meal and the stove is pleasantly smoke-free.
  • Clean out and organize your pantry and fridge.
    • Toss anything questionable, expired or stinky.
  • Wipe out your kitchen sink with some white vinegar and baking soda.
  • Assess your dishwasher and garbage disposal. Does everything smell okay?
    • If your dishwasher smells funky, run it on an empty cycle with some Cascade Dishwasher Cleaner or a bowl of white vinegar.
    • If your garbage disposal smells funky, toss some ice cubes into it, and run it to clean the blades. Then throw in some citrus peels, and turn it on to freshen up any odors.
  • Wipe down the exterior of your stainless steel appliances, like the microwave, dishwasher, fridge and oven door and handles.
    • Hit them with a spritz of diluted white vinegar, and buff off any greasy fingerprints with a microfiber rag.
  • Take out the trash and recycling (and compost, if applicable).

Bedroom

  • Wash your sheets, pillow cases and duvet.
  • Spot clean your mattress, if necessary.
    • Moisture can accumulate on your mattress while you’re sleeping, whether it’s sweat or otherwise. Let the mattress air out while you’re washing the sheets.
      • You can make an assortment of DIY mattress cleaning solutions with isopropyl alcohol, baking soda or hydrogen peroxide to spot treat stains with a spray bottle.
      • Always let the mattress air dry completely before putting sheets back on.
  • Dust your dressers, shelves, windowsills and bedside tables.
  • Sweep + mop.
  • Mind the laundry.
    • If it’s out of hand (again), take care of it. And actually put it away. We see you.

Bathroom

  • Launder your towels and bath mats. Replace them with fresh linens.
  • Sweep + mop.
  • Clean out your sink and countertops. Don’t forget to wipe down the faucet and handles, too.
  • Wipe down your mirrors.
    • We’ve got a great recipe for a DIY glass cleaning solution.
  • Clean your shower, including the faucet, hardware, walls and/or doors, plus the curtain and liner. A little white vinegar goes a long way.
    • If your shower drain is clogged, tend to that ASAP. No store-bought drain declogger on hand? All you’ve got to do is pour some boiling water down the drain, followed by some white vinegar and baking soda, then some more boiling water.
  • Take out the trash.
  • Scrub your toilet bowl. Maybe even hit the outside of the toilet, including the flusher, any attachments and the back. Then sanitize the entire area with a ready-made cleaner, like Microban 24.

Monthly cleaning schedule + checklist

Living areas

  • Dust everything from top to bottom.
    • Use a Swiffer Duster to hit your walls, blinds, electronics, shelves, baseboards and doors. Its dust-lock adhesive material actually grabs debris, instead of just moving it around or sending it airborne.

If you ask any busy Momma out there, she’d probably say that the number one biggest contributor of stress in her life is keeping up with the cleaning.

When you single-handedly clean an entire house that four or more people live in (including two preteen daughters that drop their shoes literal inches in front of the shoe rack but not on the rack), it’s rough.

I get it. And I despise cleaning, too. Especially when I feel like the house is just going to be dirty again in two days. Definitely seems like a waste of time.

But one of the things that I find to be part of that time not-so-well spent is the hassle of figuring out what to clean first or what needs to be done in each room… but that’s where a Household Chores Checklist can help!

Why You Need a Household Chores List

You may be wondering how a list of household chores can help you? Like you need another list, right?!

But actually having a printed checklist of chores has a number of benefits like these:

  • A household chore list helps you plan your time. I find it easiest to plan my productive time when I have a complete list of all of the things that I need to get done (cleaning or otherwise). And I use that list to set my intentions for each day.
  • Use your list of chores to quickly assign tasks to your family. You can easily pick off a chore from the list and delegate to your kids when you need some help around the house.
  • Having a printed chore list means you have one less thing to remember. Much like a brain dump can help you get all of your to-do’s and important things to remember out of your head and on to paper, a chores list can help you not forget things that you need to get done around the house.

How to Use a Household Chores List

It’s one thing to have a cute and colorful list of household chores hanging on your fridge… But it’s another thing to actually put it to good use to help you stay on top of your home cleaning and upkeep.

Here are some ideas for how to use the printable list of chores that I’ve got for you at the end of this post:

Laminate the list of household chores to hang on your fridge.

This is my favorite way to use the printable chores list down below. Having my list of chores hanging front and center on the fridge is a great way to keep your daily, weekly, and monthly cleaning jobs top of mind… every time you open the fridge you’ll be reminded to complete your chores for the day.

Just laminate the printable list of chores (this is the laminator that I have and LOVE!) and use a dry erase marker to check things off the list as you complete them. Doesn’t get much easier than that!

Print one copy of the chores list for each week.

If you don’t have a laminator or if you prefer having a fresh chore list for each week, you can also print off multiple copies of the printable cleaning list. Then, you can hang the list on a clipboard in your family command center or on the fridge. Just use a pen to mark out the jobs that are done, and get a fresh household chores list at the beginning of the following week.

Add the printable household chores checklist to your planner.

If you like to organize your whole life with a paper planner, then why not include your chores list in there also? You can add specific chores to different days of the week in your weekly planner to help keep up with your cleaning list.

Or, just print out the giant list of chores at the end of this post and add it to your planner as is for when you have some extra time and feel like being productive.

Use the list of chores to get help around the house.

Sometimes I feel too busy to even think about delegating chores and other household tasks to my kids and husband… As a full-time working Mom, I know that I need the help keeping up with housework, but thinking of jobs for my kids to do or actually vocalizing what specific chores I need help with is just ONE. MORE. THING. on my to-do list.

Maybe you can relate?

But having a list of chores at the ready can take one thing off your plate… Even if it’s as simple as cleaning out the dishwasher.

When you’re starting to feel overwhelmed, simply tell your kids to each pick one chore from the chore list and get it done. This allows them to choose how they want to be helpful, and it also helps to alleviate your workload. Win win!

Daily Household Chores List

List of Household Chores – Separated by Room

Instead of focusing on what chores need to be done daily, weekly, and monthly, you may find it easier to separate your list of chores by room instead. This is sometimes referred to as “zone cleaning” and it can help the gigantic task of keeping your entire house clean feel not so daunting, because it allows you to focus on only one room at a time.

If this Zone Cleaning system seems more your style, then here’s a household chores list separated by rooms or “zones” to help you get started:

Bathroom Chores List

The bathrooms can be one of the most daunting places to clean in any house… for me personally, I would rather go to the dentist than have to clean the shower.

And since these rooms can be overwhelming to clean, I’ve devoted an entire blog post to daily, weekly, and deep cleaning jobs for the bathroom! And be sure to grab these cute free printable cleaning checklists too:

Be sure to hop over to that bathroom cleaning post for more ideas, but here are some general cleaning jobs for the bathroom “zone”:

  • Wipe down bathroom counter and faucets
  • Rinse toothpaste and other debris from the sinks
  • Put dirty clothes in the hamper
  • Put away out of place items
  • Empty and clean the trash can
  • Clean sinks and vanity top
  • Windex mirror
  • Clean toilet
  • Wash towels, washcloths, and bath rug if needed
  • Sweep/mop bathroom floors
  • Hang bath mat to dry
  • Check toilet paper and hand soap supply
  • Clean shower/tub
  • Spot clean splatters on cabinets
  • Wash/spot clean shower curtain or glass

Laundry Room Chores List

Good news… the laundry room is one of the smaller rooms in the house, so there’s not as many household chores to do in this area of the home (at least that’s how it is in my house). Here are some common chores for the laundry room:

  • Wipe down outside of washer and dryer
  • Sweep/mop/vacuum floors
  • Put away any clean clothes
  • Run a cleaning cycle on the washing machine
  • Check stock of supplies (detergent, dryer sheets, etc.)
  • Clean or dust baseboards, door, and trim
  • Dust or wipe down any countertops or shelves
  • General decluttering
