Cleaning Vs. Organizing

We all have had the Ah-Ha moment where we look at our house and decide that a change is needed in the organization structure of our home. Many think, how can this be? I clean every day or each week!!  Organization can be an overwhelming task without proper strategies and many people are confused on what steps to start with.  In this post we will discover the difference between cleaning and organizing.

What is Cleaning?

Cleaning involves removing dirt from a given area. Most people accomplish this through:

  • Sweeping
  • Mopping
  • Dusting or Polishing Surfaces
  • Cleaning or Scrubbing Surfaces
  • Vacuuming
  • Laundering

What is Organizing?

Organizing involves grouping and arranging similar items together, creating zones, and giving each item in your home a “home.”  Most people accomplish this through:

  • Grouping like items together etc.(placing all your shoes together)
  • Decluttering (Donating Items, Selling Items, Throwing Items Away)
  • Labeling Items
  • And most importantly, creating a system that involves the entire family

Should I Clean or Organize First?

When embarking on your organization journey (it will be a journey) many ask should I begin to first organize or should I first clean my house?

Both!!

It is important to establish and maintain a cleaning routine to include daily, weekly, and monthly habits.

This will help with the reduction of germs and bacteria which helps decrease the spread of illnesses and viruses.

Cleaning also aids in stress reduction, mental health, and discipline.

As you embark on creating organizing spaces and systems that work and benefit entire families, continue to have cleaning routines!

I would love to hear from you, do you prefer to clean or organize?
