Keeping your toilet clean doesn’t have to take all day or be a stressful chore. With the right steps, you can give your toilet a proper deep clean in just a few minutes especially on weekends when you have a little extra time.
This quick routine is simple, effective, and helps your bathroom stay fresh all week.
Here’s a quick weekend toilet cleaning routine you should try:
1. Gather Your Cleaning Tools:
Before you start, get everything you need. This saves time and makes the process smooth. You’ll need:
- Toilet brush
- Disinfectant or toilet cleaner
- Baking soda and vinegar (optional for natural cleaning)
- Gloves
- Cleaning cloth or paper towels
- Disinfectant spray or wipes
2. Pour in the Toilet Cleaner:
Lift the toilet lid and pour your toilet cleaner around the inside rim of the bowl. Make sure it runs down the sides. Let it sit for a few minutes while you clean other parts of the toilet.
3. Wipe the Exterior:
Use a disinfectant spray or wipes to clean the outside of the toilet starting from the top (the tank and handle) and working your way down. Don’t forget the sides and the base. These areas often collect dust and urine splashes.
4. Scrub the Bowl:
After the cleaner has sat for a few minutes, use your toilet brush to scrub the inside of the bowl. Pay extra attention to under the rim and any stains. Flush once you’re done scrubbing.
5. Clean the Toilet Seat and Lid:
Wipe down the seat, both on top and underneath, and also the lid. These parts get touched the most, so it’s important to disinfect them properly.
6. Deodorize:
For a fresh finish, drop a toilet cleaning tablet in the tank or sprinkle some baking soda in the bowl. You can also place a toilet deodorizer nearby.
This quick weekend cleaning routine helps prevent buildup, keeps germs away, and makes your toilet look and smell clean throughout the week. It doesn’t require fancy tools or too much time just consistency.
CONCLUSION:
Make it a habit to clean your toilet every weekend. It keeps your bathroom hygienic and reduces the effort needed during deep cleaning sessions.
