House Cleaning Supplies & Equipment Checklist: What You Need For Your Home

Below is a house cleaning supplies and equipment checklist, with exactly what you need for your home, plus scroll down to the very bottom for a printable cleaning supply list.

This list includes the most basic supplies, products and equipment necessary to get the job done.

It attempts to list house cleaning supplies and tools that can be used in multiple places or ways, instead of specialty housekeeping supplies that can only be used one way.

Of course, depending on what is in your home to clean all of the items listed may not be necessary, and other items that are vital to your cleaning efforts will not be listed because they are not typical.

At the bottom I also have a link to get a printable version of this cleaning supply checklist. You can place this directly into your household notebook to refresh your recollection before shopping to see if you need to replenish any cleaning supplies for your home.
