Life in New York moves fast. With long workdays, crowded commutes, and endless activities, finding time to deep clean your apartment can feel impossible. That’s why many New Yorkers rely on professional eco-friendly cleaning services — but what about the days in between?

With a few simple, natural hacks, you can keep your apartment fresh, safe, and eco-friendly until your next scheduled cleaning.

 

 

1. Refresh Surfaces with Vinegar & Water

Skip the harsh sprays. A mix of equal parts white vinegar and water makes a powerful, natural cleaner for countertops, mirrors, and windows. Add a few drops of essential oils like lemon or lavender for a fresh scent.

2. Use Baking Soda for Odors

Got funky fridge smells or musty carpets? Sprinkle baking soda, let it sit for 15–30 minutes, then vacuum or wipe it away. It’s a safe, non-toxic deodorizer that works wonders.

3. Lemon Power for Kitchens

Cut a lemon in half and use it to scrub sinks, cutting boards, and stovetops. It naturally disinfects, removes grease, and leaves a refreshing citrus scent — perfect for small NYC kitchens.

4. Steam Away Bathroom Grime

Instead of heavy chemicals, try a handheld steam cleaner for bathroom tiles, grout, and sinks. The heat kills bacteria naturally and is safe for homes with kids or pets.

5. Microfiber Magic

Invest in a few microfiber cloths. They trap dust and dirt more effectively than paper towels and can be washed and reused — making them eco-friendly and budget-friendly.
