So, if you:

• Want to clean your kitchen;
• Are looking for an organised way to do it,

Then this kitchen cleaning checklist is for you!

Daily kitchen cleaning checklist

These are all activities you should perform daily to keep your kitchen in good shape. These are all activities you should perform daily to keep your kitchen in good shape. Taking care of these small tasks regularly means you’ll have less work to do the next time you get around to deep cleaning the kitchen.

There is no need to go overboard with your daily kitchen cleaning. The point here is to keep your kitchen in a functional and orderly manner so that you won’t be hindered when you’re cooking and preparing food. This is especially important in smaller kitchens, where clutter can really affect your ability to carry out simple tasks

While cooking, any appliances, containers, utensils and surfaces that you’ve used but don’t need anymore, wash them straight away! It saves up time and space immediately, so why not kill two birds with one stone? 

Weekly kitchen cleaning checklist

Next up on our kitchen cleaning checklist are the weekly tasks. You don’t have to do these tasks as often but they’re still important in order to keep your kitchen looking its best.

Monthly kitchen cleaning checklist

No kitchen cleaning checklist is complete without these monthly activities. These are the larger tasks that you only need to do once in a while. However, they are just as important to the well-being of your kitchen.

Quarterly kitchen cleaning checklist

The final stop on this kitchen cleaning checklist is the quarterly tasks. You only need to perform them a few times a year, so sit back and relax for now, but don’t forget to tackle them when the time comes!

This checklist is where some elbow grease is needed! The top example on the list is enough to make anyone shudder. Cleaning grease off an oven can be difficult but with the range of sanitizing chemicals on the market, it can be cleaned easily. Not to mention, if you haven’t got any cleaning chemicals on hand, you can use a mixture of baking soda and water. Baking soda isn’t only amazing at removing stains, but it has useful disinfectant properties. Which means it can be used in a variety of other kitchen cleaning chores. 

Make it regular

We know it can be difficult to find time to clean the kitchen, as it is often the room that requires the most effort. And as it requires effort, we always push it back. To avoid this, set yourself specific dates or make a home cleaning schedule that you can keep to. And even make a printable copy of our checklist This makes it much easier over time because it will become part of a habit. 

It helps in the long run too! The more organised and clean your kitchen is, by the time you have to do your monthly or quarterly cleans, you won’t have to put in as much effort. Don’t leave the kitchen cleaning and decluttering til the last minute! This is where it becomes the chore we all dread, plus, you might get smelly drains which will take even more time to fix.
