🧽 What’s in My Cleaning Caddy
The simple tools I actually use — and nothing extra.
When it comes to keeping your home clean, convenience matters. Having a grab-and-go cleaning caddy means less fuss, more focus, and a lot less time wasted searching for the right tool.
At The Everyday Edit, I keep things minimal, practical, and pretty. Here’s a peek inside my go-to cleaning caddy — everything I need to tackle a tidy-up in under 10 minutes.
🪣 First, the Caddy Itself
Wipeable, lightweight, and neutral.
I use a plastic or metal caddy with sections — easy to carry room to room and simple to rinse out when needed.
🧼 What’s Inside:
1. All-Purpose Spray
A gentle, non-toxic cleaner I can use on counters, shelves, and most surfaces. I keep it in a reusable amber spray bottle for a minimal look.
2. Glass + Mirror Cleaner
For a streak-free shine on mirrors and windows. A vinegar-based formula works wonders.
3. Disinfecting Wipes or Spray
For high-touch areas like doorknobs, light switches, and bathroom handles — quick and effective.
4. Microfiber Cloths (x3)
Color-coded: one for kitchen, one for bathroom, one for general dusting. These are reusable and leave no lint behind.
5. Magic Eraser Sponge
Perfect for scuffs on walls, marks on baseboards, or grime on doors.
6. Scrub Brush or Old Toothbrush
For grout, faucet edges, or stubborn sink spots.
7. Feather Duster or Mini Swiffer
Great for a quick sweep of baseboards, blinds, or high shelves.
8. Rubber Gloves
I keep a clean pair tucked in — especially useful for bathroom days.
9. Small Trash Bags
Easy to swap liners as I go from room to room.
✨ Optional but Nice to Have:
Room spray or essential oil roller
Furniture polish cloth
A stain remover pen
Final Thoughts
A good cleaning caddy isn’t about having everything — it’s about having the right things.
With just a handful of essentials, you can make tidying your space feel smoother, lighter, and even a little more satisfying.
