Do you want some vacuum cleaning hacks? I have 13 vacuum cleaning tips to share with you!  A few things to help you clean faster, deodorize, and take care of your vacuum cleaner.

Vacuum Cleaning Hacks

1. Clean Your Vacuum Roller

Rollers get loose hair, strings, and other things caught around them.

When you’re done cleaning a great way to remove all this is to cut the strings with scissors.

Next, pull them right off your roller.

Your vacuum is clean and ready to go.

2. Deodorize Your Carpet

Bad Odors loom on our carpet. Get rid of bad smells by using baking soda as it’s a great deodorizer. Sprinkle it onto your carpet and let it stand for 30 minutes.

Once the time has passed, vacuum as usual.

3. Easy Dusting

No need for chemicals and special clothes when it comes to dusting. Use your cleaning tools by just adding your soft brush attachment to your vacuum and sucking up all of that dust.

4. Dust & Clean Art, Wall Hangings, Pictures. Light Switches, Thermostats, Doors, and more

Use the brush attachment and vacuum off all the dust from those items.

5. Clean Baseboards without Breaking Your Back

The best way to help your back is by adding the brush attachment to your hose or better yet the long neck of your vacuum cleaner and sucking the dust right off of your baseboards.

6. Clean Lampshades

Using the brush attachment, vacuum off your lampshades to keep them dust-free.

7. Clean Insides of Glass Shades

Using the brush attachment vacuum not only dust but the bugs that sometimes fall inside those glass shades.

8. Find A Lost Item

Place a pair of tights or tight over the end of the vacuum’s hose and add a rubber band to secure it. Place your vacuum hose in the area, crease, hard-to-reach space where you lost your item. The vacuum sucks it up, and the nylon/tight hold it into place so you can grab it. This super easy technique can get you to find your small object and small items in no time.

9. Clean Your Couch and Other Hard To Reach Places

Use your crevice tool on your vacuum and easily clean under cushions, in between cracks, and get to hard-to-reach places.

10. Remove Carpet dents

Place ice cubes in the indents in the carpet where the heavy furniture used to be. As the ice melts the carpet will fluff back up.

11. Safely Clean Computers, TVs, and Other Electronics

Using the brush attachment on your vacuum, suck up dust on your keyboards, clean screens, etc.

12. Clean Your Blinds

Using the brush attachment, vacuum the dust right off those blinds.

13. Freshen Your Air While You Vacuum

Add drops of your favorite essential oil to your filter or vacuum bag. As you vacuum the air coming out will give your room a fresh scent.
