Dirty clothes will make your room look very messy if they are all over the place, so put all of them in the laundry basket or washing machine! If you have clothes drying inside your house, take them off and put them away, your home will look classier if laundry is out of view.

4. Clean the dishes. Take all the glasses and dishes from everywhere in your house to the kitchen sink, and get cleaning! Not only will this take care of the dirty dishes, but the soap will also leave a pleasant smell in the house as well – two birds with one stone!

5. Put unnecessary items into boxes or bags. If you don’t have time to put everything back to the right place, make sure to use a box or bag to store all the unnecessary items. This way, they are out of sight, and you can get back to sorting them out once you have the time.

6. Wipe down your dining tables and chairs to get rid of any dust, dirt and spots that might have settled during the day. The key to cleaning a house fast is to concentrate on your living rooms, bathrooms and kitchen. Unless you know that your guest is going to be entering your bedroom, cleaning up there can wait.

7. Stains immediately become apparent when you walk into a room. Therefore, get rid of them with a stain removal cleaner, or at least cover them up! This can be done by covering them with pillows or sofa covers, or strategically placing things; to hide the stain.
