    How to make the air clean in a new house

    If you’re moving into a new house, it’s nice to have the air refreshed. So at the very top of this must have cleaning supplies list, is this product.

    It’s a Hepa Air Purifier that’s helpful all around the house, something you can use in 1-2 rooms a day, until all the “old air” out. 

    DIY must have cleaning supplies stock up

    You’ll especially like it if the people who lived in the house before you had pets like cats or dogs, and you’re not used to the smell. If you’re allergic to animals, using HEPA filters in a new house should help.

    After the initial cleaning, you can continue to move it around the house during the week to freshen up different rooms.

    Something to carry cleaning supplies around the house

    So this cleaning products list starts with something to carry all your new house cleaning supplies, like this Large Cleaning Caddy.

    You’ve seen it in my photos, like the one above.

    This particular caddy for holding cleaning supplies is big enough to hold a lot. From paper towel rolls, to all my microfiber cleaning cloths and sprays, I could add everything I wanted in them for my DIY cleaning kits for each floor.

    I suggest setting up one cleaning kit per floor so wherever you are, it’s easy to grab what you need to take care of a mess or get some dust.

    You never know when the urge to start dusting will hit, ya know??

    Protect your hands while cleaning items with products and germs

    So this is an inexpensive essential cleaning supply for a new house that you’ll be happy to use all the time… 

    Reusable Household Cleaning Gloves
    Ok now in my 30’s, an exciting package from Amazon is something like a pack of these household cleaning gloves. I bought them for cleaning a new house, because I left all my old cleaning supplies in a different state (didn’t make sense to move them), and started fresh cleaning kits for each floor of the house. I put two of these, one in each kit to do bathrooms and things like that, and the last pair in the pack, I put under the kitchen sink.

    A 3 pack set of these Reusable Household Cleaning Gloves is handy to have to leave one on each floor (in a cleaning supply caddy) and one by the kitchen sink.

    Now, I do like suggesting disposable gloves for this cleaning must haves guide, for some really nasty jobs, but these get a lot of use in my house. 

    They make cleaning dirty things like toilets a little easier and more bearable. 

    Supplies for cleaning bathrooms in a new house… 

    Okay, so at the top of my list of things I hate to clean, you’ll find bathroom tubs. They’re so hard and awkward to get to. 

    1. Vacuum the floors.

    I love this VacMaster Wet Dry Vacuum for this purpose, and for cleaning the grill so I can make tasty Traeger recipes.

    2. Fill tubs/sinks with hot water. 

    So I’ve found the secret to cleaning bathrooms in new houses without losing your mind is to fill the tubs / sinks with hot, soapy water for 20-30 minutes while you mop the floors. 

    I did major bathroom cleaning in a new house for move-in and it really got the floors clean, easily. Like a good deep cleaning.

    My favorite spin mop of the moment is this O-Cedar Easy Ring Spin Mop and for a solution, this Mrs. Meyers Floor Cleaner.

    3. Mop floors while wearing special foot protectors. 

    Unboxing Mop Slippers for floor cleaning supplies new house

    These microfiber Mop Slippers are LIFE!! They pretty much inspired this cleaning must haves product list because I couldn’t keep ’em to myself.

    I feel so in the mood to clean with them, and so happy not to get my feet wet or socks dirty. 

    4. Scrub with a smart tool

    Electric Power Spin Scrubber for cleaning bathrooms in new house

    Once the floors are mopped, I let the hot water out of the tubs / sinks. Then I use something like this Electric Power Spin Scrubber to lift dirt off hard to reach places. It makes cleaning tubs and high tile showers way easier. 

    5. Do a little detail cleaning work

    Last but not least, I also keep some Scotch Heavy Duty Sponges handy for tough-to scrub places like the faucets.

    More cleaning supplies that make life easier

    These items are so important in my cleaning caddy and they had to make it on this cleaning must haves list!

    Microfiber Cleaning Cloths for all over cleaning a new house
    Don’t know how I lived without these for so long before getting new supplies for cleaning a new house was on my mind! Use in place of paper towels – they are more absorbent + you wash them.

    Stash some of these Microfiber Cleaning Cloths in your cleaning kits and around the house, particularly under sinks, to make it easy to wipe up spills quickly. 

    Mrs. Meyers Multi-Surface Cleaner Spray for new home cleaning supply caddy

    Last cleaning must haves for bathrooms…

    I like the smell and efficiency of this Mrs. Meyers Multi-Surface Cleaner Spray.

    To freshen up your bedding and towels, try these Amaze Bleach Tablets for Laundry and Home Cleaning.

    Supplies for cleaning the kitchen in a new house

    Most of the items in this list can be used for cleaning kitchens as well. So maybe in the future I’ll make a new house cleaning supply list just for the kitchen/pantry, but anything on this list will do!

    Also for cleaning the kitchen, I recommend checking out my guide on how to clean black glass stove top.

    Kit with the best cleaning supplies for new house

    How to clean high ceilings

    When you have a hard to reach, high ceiling foyer, you need something like this 20′ Dusting Kit. It’s a life saver for cleaning fans and light fixtures that are difficult to reach. And baseboards, too!

    Cleaning must haves for kids, too

    This Kids Mini Broom and Pan is the cutest. It works well and feels just like an adult tool, but smaller. 

    Wishing you a fun DIY new home cleaning adventure!

    Meat thermometer recommendations

    Every home chef needs a reliable meat thermometer to cook food perfectly. 

    On Sip Bite Go, you’ll often see me using:

    1. Meater thermometer – a fancy wireless thermometer that connects to a phone app – gifted to me from a Traeger partnership.
    2. ThermoPro digital thermometer – which has a wire that connects the thermometer to a display box outside the oven/grill. 

    It’s like being psychic! The great thing about either of the thermometers above is that I don’t have to take the food out of the oven to know the temperature. 

    How to use ‘em… What I do is stick the digital thermometer in steak, pork, chicken, whatever… Then put the food in the oven, on the smoker, or grill.

    While the meat cooks, it reads the temperature so I know exactly what temp meat is as it’s cooking. Without having to take it out and check. It’s really difficult to overcook food when you know exactly what temp it is inside!

    Where to start?

    My story. Growing up, I didn’t learn to cook.

    (I was actually banned from cooking for years)

    And then in my 20’s I didn’t have to cook because my job as an event planner involved a lot of travel and it was easier to eat out. At the time, I was 100% positive that restaurant food would always taste better than cooking at home, and there was nothing I could do about it.

    Until I fell in love with a chef. He would come over and cook me delicious meals right in my own kitchen. My mind was blown.

    Since then, I’ve been on a mission to figure out easy ways to make restaurant style food at home and share it here on Sip Bite Go.

    Love to eat out and travel? I can totally relate. See my guide on where to eat in Portland, OR.

    Never in a million years did I imagine I’d ditch the 9-5 lifestyle in my late 20’s, move across the country on a whim, start a new life, start a food blog, and write a book.

    But here I am!
