The First Apartment Cleaning Starter Kit (What You Actually Need)

Remember standing in the cleaning aisle, completely paralyzed by 47 different floor cleaners?

I do. I spent $200 on stuff I used once and shoved under the sink. Three years later, I threw most of it away when I moved.

Here's what I wish someone had told me then.

You don't need 47 things. You need 8.

This guide shows you exactly what to buy, where to store it, and how to actually use it, all for under $200 total.

Inside this 21-page guide, you'll get:

✓ The only 8 cleaning supplies you actually need (with specific brands and prices, no guessing)

✓ Complete shopping list with real numbers ($170-$220 total, most of that is just the vacuum)

✓ What NOT to buy (save yourself from wasting money on Swiffers, specialty cleaners, and other stuff that doesn't work)

✓ Exactly where to store everything in a tiny apartment (without it taking over your space)

✓ A cleaning routine that actually works (30 minutes, twice a week, that's it)

✓ Specific solutions for when things get gross (burned stove, soap scum, toilet rings, weird sink smells)

✓ Priority timeline if you're broke and can't buy everything at once

✓ Real talk about cheap vs expensive (where to spend money and where to save it)

This isn't theory. It's what actually works.

No Instagram-worthy cleaning closets. No 47-step routines you'll never follow. Just the essentials, based on real experience and what people actually use.

Who this is for:

• Moving into your first apartment and have no idea what to buy
• Sick of wasting money on cleaning products you don't need
• Want a clean apartment without spending hours or hundreds of dollars
• Need a system that actually fits into your busy life

What makes this different:

No AI fluff. No generic advice. Just specific product names, real prices, honest mistakes I made so you don't have to, and a system that works in small spaces on a tight budget.

I've been there, paralyzed in Target, overwhelmed by options, wondering why my carpet still looks gross after vacuuming. This guide gets you past all that.

Your apartment is going to be fine. You just need the right 8 things.
