• How to Create a Home Housecleaning Kit

2
Purchase a cleaning caddy 
A caddy is the essential foundation for a
housecleaning kit, as it is used to store and
carry all of your cleaning supplies. Plastic
caddies are available in a variety of sizes from
both general merchandise retailers and specialty
stores that sell cleaning and organizing
products.  
3
Select an all-purpose cleaner for your kit 
Perhaps the most important and useful cleaning
product in a kit is an all-purpose cleaning
spray. This spray can be used for wiping down
many surfaces, including walls, countertops,
railings, vanities, tables, and other furniture.
Many of these sprays are available in all-natural
formulations with pleasing scents.
4
Add a mild abrasive cleaner to your cleaning
kit 
Abrasive cleaners are often packaged as either
powders or thick creams. This type of cleaner is
suitable for areas that tend to build up thick
grime and therefore need to be scrubbed rather
than simply wiped down. Bathtubs, bathroom tile,
toilet bowls, and utility sinks are all areas
that are best cleaned using a mild abrasive.
5
Consider adding a disinfecting product to your
cleaning kit
Cleaning products designed specifically to kill
microorganisms are available in both spray
bottles and pre-moistened wipes. This type of
cleaner is useful for cleaning bathroom surfaces
(such as toilet flush handles) and areas of your
kitchen countertop that have contacted uncooked
meat or fish.
6
Keep distilled vinegar and baking soda at hand
Vinegar and baking soda are 2 natural,
inexpensive, and versatile products for cleaning.
Vinegar can be diluted with water and used to
clean windows or kill mold and mildew. Baking
soda can be used alone as a scrub, added to other
cleaning products, or used to absorb odors. Hire
