Free Printable Cleaning Schedule

This post may contain affiliate links or sponsored content, read our Disclosure Policy.

When the doorbell rings, what’s the first thought that pops into your head? If it has something to with the fact that your home is definitely not ready for visitors, this printable cleaning schedule is for you. Trust me, this customizable free printable cleaning checklist will have you rolling out the welcome mat! 🙂

This comprehensive free printable cleaning schedule will ensure your home is always ready for visitors.

Okay, look, I know it has to be done, but cleaning is definitely not my favorite thing. The broom and I are never going to be BFFs. The thought of a new sponge and the citrus scent of cleaners is never going to have me leaping from bed, bright eyed and eager. Sorry, it’s just not going to happen.

However, that said, I do enjoy a tidy home. To help me overcome my procrastination and jam-packed schedule, I rely on, you guessed it, a printable! 😉 More specifically, a free printable cleaning schedule.

This printable weekly cleaning schedule breaks up household chores over the course of six days, which makes them seem less like a marathon and much more manageable. Instead of spending hours dashing around the house trying to do it all at once, there are just a few things to do each day! If you’re ready to whip your home into shape, download your copy of the free printable cleaning schedule now!

Tired of feeling overwhelmed about housework? Use this printable cleaning checklist bundle to get into control of your cleaning.

Bonus: Get a customizable free printable cleaning schedule

Bonus: This printable cleaning log is actually a twofer. When you download the file you’ll get a PDF version of the free printable cleaning checklist and a customizable Word file. Use the Word file if you want to shift the cleaning schedule around to fit your life.

For example, I really (really) hate cleaning bathrooms, so I used the customizable version of the printable weekly cleaning schedule and moved bathrooms to earlier in the week. You can do the same with your most hated chores. Or if Saturdays are super busy you could move those cleaning tasks to Sunday. Whatever works best for you!

Below you’ll find a detailed look at the printable cleaning schedule as well as pro tips and items that might make a task easier.

Psst! To quickly jump to a day of the week, click a link below:

Printable Cleaning Schedule: Every Day Tasks

Unfortunately, some cleaning tasks have to be done each day. For many of these tasks you may want to invest in a nice pair of rubber gloves, otherwise your hands will pay the price!

clean living room record on free printable cleaning schedule

Room: Misc.

Here’s what the free printable cleaning schedule template has down for your daily to-do list:

  • Wash dishes or unload/load the dishwasher.
  • Wipe bathroom counters and sink down.
  • Wipe down the kitchen counters, sink and table.
  • Make beds.
  • Do a quick pick up (ex. children’s toys). 
  • Open and sort mail. Don’t just put it on your kitchen table or counter!
  • Do laundry. Make sure to keep this one on your printable cleaning log; doing a load a day will prevent clothing avalanches from occurring! It can also prevent your closet or laundry room from taking on a funky odor.
  • Take out the garbage and recycling. 
  • Sweep and mop the kitchen floor. 

Pro tip: Keep “sweep and mop the kitchen floor” at the end of the “every day” portion of your free printable cleaning checklist. Sweeping and mopping the kitchen at the end of the day ensures you don’t leave crumbs lying around that can attract bugs. Yuck!

Printable Cleaning Schedule: Monday

Happy Monday! Start your week off on the right foot by getting some cleaning out of the way. My printable cleaning log has me tackling my favorite (sarcasm) chore bright and early Monday morning.

cleaning bathroom sink record on printable cleaning log

Room: Bathrooms

Weekly:

  • Clean counters, sinks, and mirrors.
  • Clean toilets. 
  • Wipe down tubs/showers. 
  • Sweep and mop floors. 
  • Wash bath mats.

Pro tip: If you haven’t replaced your bath mat since oh, I don’t know, college consider buying a new bath mat. 😉

Bi-weekly:

  • Task: Clean out drawers and cabinets.

Pro tip: If there’s something you don’t need or that has expired get rid of it! If your drawers seem like a bottomless pit look for drawer organizers to neaten things up.

Printable Cleaning Schedule: Tuesday

Stick to Tuesday’s free printable cleaning schedule and your kitchen and dining room will be clean enough to eat off of … wait…

Room: Kitchen and Dining Room

Weekly:

  • Clean stove (cooktop). 
  • Clean small appliances, such as your toaster.
  • Wipe out the microwave. 
  • Wipe out the fridge. This is also a good opportunity to wipe down the outside of the fridge—especially if you have a stainless steel fridge. Where do all those fingerprints come from?
  • Wipe down the cabinets. 
  • Dust. You can use an old t-shirt for this but sometimes a duster is nice.

Pro Tip: Cleaning your small appliances includes cleaning your coffee maker! Have a Keurig? Here’s how to descale a Keurig.

Bi-weekly:

  • Clean cycle the dishwasher.
  • Deep clean the fridge and freezer. 
  • Organize cupboards and pantry.

Pro Tip: When you do the deep clean of your fridge and freezer, make an inventory of what food you have on hand and stick it to the front of the fridge. Trust me, it’ll come in handy the next time one of your kids or your spouse declares there’s nothing to eat! Using a printable meal planner is also a good idea.

Monthly:

  • Clean the oven.

Printable Cleaning Schedule: Wednesday

Happy hump day! Good news—the free printable cleaning schedule template gives you a bit of a break here so you won’t find anything too terribly strenuous.

Room: Living Room

Weekly:

  • Dust and polish.
  • Straighten shelves and cabinets. 
  • Wipe down and organize toys. 
  • Vacuum, sweep, and/or mop. 
  • Water and dust plants. 

Bi-weekly:

  • Wash pillow covers, couch covers, and blankets.
  • Clean under couches, chairs, and other furniture.
  • Dust ceiling fans and light fixtures. 

Pro tip: You can also freshen up those pillows, couches, and soft surfaces with a homemade linen spray; opt for lavender essential oil to promote relaxation in your home!

Monthly:

Printable Cleaning Schedule: Thursday

As your little one grows up, I recommend delegating this aspect of the printable weekly cleaning schedule to him or her. Tidying up is a great way for him or her to learn to respect their belongings. Consider using this free printable chore chart for kids or this printable chore chart with point tracking to help keep them organized.

Room: Bedrooms

Weekly:

Note: This free printable cleaning schedule template covers the main areas of the house, but it isn’t totally exhaustive. For example, it doesn’t include the attic or basement. You may want to add a note to your printable cleaning schedule to tidy up those areas once a quarter or so.

Want to make your printable cleaning schedule as comprehensive as possible? Get cleaning inspiration by referring to the:

This 29 page printable home cleaning checklist bundle includes everything you need to keep on top of your household chores.

And if you’re a bit of a nerd for organization (and printables!) like yours truly, consider adding a printable cleaning schedule and cleaning stickers to your routine. Both can help you keep track of what tasks were done when and what still needs to be vacuumed, dusted, polished, etc.

This printable cleaning schedule lists all the important household chores by days of the week.

Happy cleaning! 🙂

Thanks, Happy Money Saver and Decorating Files!

    I am unable to get the customizable cleaning schedule to download. Is there something wrong with the link?

  4. Shawnda says

    I couldn’t get the customizable one to download, it says something’s wrong – is it expired?
    Thanks 🙂

  5. Bree says

    The Word document version has lines that are different than the PDF. Might need to be updated to be right? For example under Saturday/Outside Work it’s all examples of inside work!

  6. Jamie says

    Is there a way to edit the schedule without word? We only have Mac computers and it won’t work for me. I figured it didn’t hurt to inquire. I love your schedule but wanted to add a few things! Thank you! 🙂

  11. Kelly says

    I can’t download the cleaning schedule it just keeps returning me to the same place 🙁 I have subscribed already. I also tried with the spring cleaning schedule and the same thing happened? Would you be able to email me both? Pref as word docs? Thanks in advance :)) koverton1980@gmail.com

  20. Brenda says

    Hi I’m having trouble downloading the customizable link. By custmomizable do you mean we could change the DAYS the chores take place?? For example I would like to complete Bathrooms on Friday.
    I can’t seem to get the list to alter at all.

  23. Nicole says

    Hi! I subscribed but can’t download the customizable cleaning sheet. Can you sent that to me? Thanks!

  24. Kelli says

    Hi Nicole, If your popup blocker is on you may not be able to see the printable. It should show up in the bottom of the screen. You can email me and I’ll make sure you get it. 🙂 Kelli

  27. Susan says

    Hello, I am in desperate need of your printable cleaning schedule download. The link does not download the file. Is it still possible to get it? Thank you ♡

  28. Kelli says

    Hi Susan, If your popup blocker is on you may not be able to see the printable. It should show up in the bottom of the screen. You can email me and I’ll make sure you get it. 🙂 Kelli

  32. Lindsay Toro says

    I put my email in twice and never received an email with the free download….I really think this is awesome and keep me on track with cleaning. Thanks!

  43. Mari says

    My husband and I have been discussing me being a stay at home wife (possibly with a part-time job that’s flexible, like an independent contractor so that I still have work experience to list) for the last few months. He’s going back to law school and once he’s done will probably earn enough to not need me to work anymore. We don’t plan on having children, so it’s something I’ve been trying to work out the tasks for to see if I can still swing a gardener since I HATE mowing the lawn.

    This is one of the best printable schedules I’ve found, though I think in reality I’m going to merge three or four together. 🙂

    Also, *I* was having trouble doing the downloadable. The link has not come to my inbox (or spambox) thus far. There was, however, a liiiittttllllleeeeee tiny link to download the customizable one that I found so all is good. 🙂

  51. Tiffany says

    Hi there,
    I absolutely love the weekly cleaning schedule! I did get that to download in a PDF file but I would love to download the word costumizable schedule. If you could email it to me that would be great! rego.tiffany@gmail.com

    Thank you in advance!

  52. Tiffany says

    I actually found the link to download the word schedule. Please, delete this comment and my original comment.

    Sorry and thank you, again!

  54. Shelley says

    Hi, I requested the Word version. I just found the link, so no need to send to me now. Thanks again! Shelley

  58. Amanda says

    Thank you. I appreciate your assistance.

    Jessica

  80. Pauletta Thompson says

    I am unable to get the customizable download to work for me. May you send it to me as well?

  81. Theresa Kwasniewski says

    Kelli,
    I am not able to get the cleaning printable link to work…I am hoping that if you get a moment to email me the printable sheets, purdy please! I am looking forward to getting my home notebook started and to be able to have a guide so-to-speak of to get me off to a good start and getting organized! I need all the help that I can get, trust me on that note! Any suggestions on setting up my home notebook would also be of help….
    Thanking you in advance, Theresa

  86. Charlie says

    Hi Kelli, I can’t get the link to work. When you get a chance will you please email me the sheets?

    Thanks!

  88. Stephanie says

    Hi Kelli,

    I’m in the same boat, I can’t get it to download. Could you email me the link when you get a chance?

  94. Chrissy says

    HI there! When I click on the customizable schedule link, I get a bunch of words on top of each other. Would you mind sending it to me? It’s exactly what I need!! Thank you!

  96. Christina says

    I have subscribed and can’t get the editable version of the weekly cleaning schedule.
    Would you email the link to me, please?

  102. Kelsey says

    Hi. I would love the cleaning list. I signed up for your newsletter but was still unable to access the cleaning list that I can customize. I would love the weekly and spring cleaning checklist. Can you send them to me?

  103. Kelli says

    Hi Kelsey, After you sign up you will receive a code which you enter on the free printables page. Hope that helps! 🙂 Kelli

  104. Andrea says

    Hello! I tried to download the customizable cleaning schedule, but it’s not working for me for some reason. Do you happen to know how I could get that to work?

    Thanks so much! 🙂

  105. Kelsey says

    I used the code but when I click to download any of the free printable it takes me back to signing up for your newsletter. I don’t know why the code is not working for me.

  106. Kelli says

    Do you click “Access Printables”? After that you should be sent to the printables page and be able to click on any printable to download them.

  108. Kelsey says

    Yes, I clicked “Access Printables” and then it sends me to a page to subscribe for the newsletter (which I have already done). I have tried it three times now with the same result. I was using Crome. I just tried using Explorer and it worked! Yay! The only other question I have is that I was able to download the weekly cleaning schedule, but only the pdf version. I believe you mentioned on your website that you had a word document that you could customize, correct? Can you send that version to me? It looks like it is not available on your webpage. Or at least it wasn’t on the page with the rest of the documents you can download.

  112. Ashley Smith says

    Could you please email me the customizable page please? Having trouble getting anything to download.
    Thank You.

  118. Kim says

    Hi,

    I cannot access the download link. I have subscribed though. Please could you send me a download link to the pdf and customisable one too?

    Cheers, Kim

  120. Dani says

    Hi, I tried signing up several times but never received the confirmation email. Trying to download and print the cleaning template

  124. Laura says

    Ok, so I signed up for the daily email and accessed the printables page. But it only had the PDFs. Where would I find the word download link?

  125. Kelli says

    Hi Laura, When you click on the printable cleaning schedule image it should have both the pdf and word version. If it doesn’t let me know. Thanks! 🙂 Kelli

  126. Laura says

    Kelli,
    I’m unsure which page I’m supposed to be clicking on the image to find these options… If I click on the image at the top of this page, it just opens the low res jpg of the photo I click on. If I click on the cleaning schedule on the page with all of your printables, it just automaticly opens the PDF. :/
    Is there another place I should be looking?

  128. Lori says

    Hi, I tried signing up several times but never received the confirmation email. I am trying to download the cleaning schedule.

    Signed up for the Printable Cleaning Schedule (I really like yours) about 10 minutes ago and so far, nothing has come across my inbox. Will continue to check and will check my spam as well.

  203. mandi says

    Hello – I signed up for your email newsletter, and I received a verification email, which led me to the activation code. When I try to access the cleaning schedule, it loops me back to the email sign up :(. Can you help? Thanks!

  204. mandi says

    Well, it worked with MS Edge! I was using Chrome, so it appears the links won’t work in Chrome, but other browers are fine. Thanks!

  207. Amber says

  217. La'Tisa says

    I am already signed up for the newsletters, thus how I found this printable. But this is one link that I just cannot get to work. 🙁

  226. Carrie Peterson says

    I too would like a copy emailed to me. I am also already a subscriber but not having any luck getting it to download. I’m also getting this response when I add a comment…

  228. La'Tisa says

    What I meant is that I’ve been getting the emails for a few months so I know that’s not the issue. I don’t even have a visible link to download either version. It only gives me the option to pin in Pinterest. Could you email the editable one to me by chance?

  236. Tahara says

    Hello! I signed up and received a code but it’s still giving me an error. Are you able to email me the cleaning printable?

  240. Brittany Buchheit says

    I finally got the page that asks for the password for the printable version of the weekly chore chart. It’s very well thought out. I really like it. However, when I try to open it, it automatically tries to download as a zip file and I can’t open it. Is there a way to email it to me please?
