My living room is the place where I spend time almost every evening. Although I don't watch television as much as I used to, a clean living room gives me much more enjoyment than being in a messy one.

Cleaning it is easy, although a couch and coffee table make it a bit more difficult to vacuum clean. The steps provided here is my plan to clean the living room as quickly as possible.

Identify the ideal way of working in the room

The most difficult place to clean in my living room is under the sofa. It is pretty much the most difficult place in my household, since it is very difficult to reach there with my vacuum cleaner. This is the place I start my cleaning first.

I have also some chairs which I need to move in order to vacuum clean the floor under them, so that is another tricky place where I continue after cleaning the floor under the sofa.

Declutter it first

Sometimes I need to declutter my living room a bit before I can start cleaning it and mostly it means cleaning the coffee table.

There might be magazines or remote controllers there, so I need to put them away while I clean the top of the coffee table. Otherwise no other decluttering has to be done first, before starting the actual cleaning.

Take care of the floors, baseboards and levels

I start cleaning the living room under the sofa, which is the most difficult place there. Then I clean the rest of the floor space and finally clean all the levels. Since there is a bit of level space there, it gathers most of the dust on top of it. Finally, I clean the baseboards as well, since they gather lot's of dust as well.

Most of the time I just vacuum clean my carpets, but sometimes I may need to take them out for further cleaning by carper beater.
