Setting your Barefoot Basics Cleaner up for Success
Your Barefoot Basics Cleaner will use your cleaning products and equipment – this keeps things hygienic and means they’re using what works best for your surfaces and preferences.
Since Barefoot Basics just focuses on floors and bathrooms, here’s what to have on hand:
Equipment
- Corded or fully charged vacuum (with enough battery for your whole home)
- Mop & bucket (microfibre heads work well on most surfaces)
Cleaning products
- Floor cleaner
- Toilet cleaner
- Bathroom cleaner or multi-purpose spray
- Glass cleaner (for mirrors/shower screens)
- Paste or cream cleanser for tough grime (e.g. Jif or Gumption – note: slightly abrasive)
Supplies
- Microfibre cloths (at least 3–4)
- Scrubbing brush (for bathroom surfaces)
- Plastic gloves
- Bin bags (for bathroom bins)
Please make sure products are suitable for your surfaces, and let your Barefoot Basics Cleaner know about any delicate areas or how to use any specialised equipment or products during your walk-through.
Quick tips:
- Eco-friendly and chemical-free options are widely available at supermarkets (healthy for your home and your Barefoot Basics Cleaner)
- For mops, a microfibre head with a good bucket and wringing system helps minimise streaks (Sabco systems are available at Bunnings, Big W, and most supermarkets)
