How to Keep Your House Clean While Traveling

Keep Your House Clean While Traveling With Robot Vacuum

You deserve to have a break from work and enjoy being with your friends or family. Go out of town for a week, or spend some quality time with your loved ones abroad for a month. Visiting your parents on holidays or enjoying the beaches in the Caribbean is something you owe to yourself.

While you’re away, stop worrying about keeping your home clean – robot vacuums can take care of that. These devices are your best friends when it comes to cleaning your house while you’re on a trip.

Getting Ready to Go

Before you leave, make sure you do the following steps to keep your house clean for weeks.

Clean the fridge. Check what’s inside your fridge and consume all the food items that will expire while you’re away. Wipe your fridge with a damp cloth to remove any spills and crumbs.

Do the laundry. Don’t leave your laundry idle for days, or else your house will smell bad when you get back home. Aside from that, stains and oil will set into the fabrics and will stay there forever. This is bad, especially if you have sensitive skin as the deep-seated oils can trigger the rashes to come out in different parts of your body.

Tidy up the dishwasher: Wash all the dishes before you leave. Use a clean kitchen towel to dry the sink and other parts of the kitchen. Do not forget to take out the trash before you go. You don’t want to invite cockroaches to feast in your kitchen while you’re away.

Make arrangements for your pets: It’s always sad leaving your furry friends behind even when you have to. If you don’t like to hire a pet sitter, you can enroll them in a specialized facility where they can play with other pets. This way, you can stop imagining what your house looks like with those wild babies left fooling around for days.

Ask your neighbor to look after your plants: Your plants can quickly get dry if you don’t water them even for just three days. Ask your trusted neighbor to look after your plants. Give them instructions on how to care for them, especially those sensitive to sunlight or moisture.

Unplug appliances: Unplugging appliances from their sockets is one way to save money on your energy bill. It is also a good safety measure to make sure that nothing will short circuit and start a fire while no one is around. Unplug appliances, especially those that consume too much electricity such as air conditioner, heater, and thermostat.

Put subscriptions on hold: You don’t want piles of subscriptions scattered near your doorsteps, do you? In this case, you need to call your post office and request from them to put your subscription on hold. It’s also a good idea to contact the company to have a subscription to put your copies on hold. Inform them when they can start delivering again.

Make up your bed: It feels so good to lie down in a clean and comfortable bed after your trip. If this is something you will be looking forward to once you return, then you have to make your bed and change sheets and pillow covers before you go.

Tidy up: Pick up all the stuff lying around and put them in their right places. Arrange the magazines on their shelves and put the toys inside the boxes. Make the floor free from any obstacles so that the robot vacuum can move freely.

Use a Robot vacuum to Sweep the Floor

Before you go, vacuum all rooms to avoid dust build-up. Using a robot vacuum to clean the floor is fast and very convenient. All you have to do is to charge it, program it, and it’s good to go.

Another advantage of using a robot vacuum is it allows you to set its cleaning schedule. For example, using Ecovacs home app, you can schedule the robot to clean your home whenever you want, even when you’re not around. The good thing is you can track its progress while it does its work and see how clean the floor is. If you’re not satisfied with the results, you can command it to run a few more times or change the cleaning mode using the mobile app.

Remotely controlling a robot is a feature that is available for most brands of vacuum cleaners available in the market today. To use this feature, all you have to do is download the app and connect your robot to your iPhone.

If you have a problem installing the software, you need to make sure that your phone is compatible to “talk” to the robot. The app will not work correctly if your phone doesn’t meet the specs it needs. The technical requirements can be different from one model to another. For instance, iRobot WiFi requirements are different from other brands. To see if your phone is compatible with your robot, consult its user manual.

Now that you know how a robot vacuum can keep your home clean while traveling, go ahead and get one! It’s a worthy investment especially if you travel a lot.
