Cleaning as a blind person is not hard but can take more strategy. Sometimes it can seem as if you’ve cleaned an entire room but, there is a lot of dust left over. With a good set of tasks, all dust and dirt can be gotten rid of.
The best place to start is to dust all things. This could include shelves, tables, and even door frames. This will make it so that all the dust in your room wiill end up on the floor.
Now that all dusting has been done, you can get a broom and sweep all that has fallen to the floor. The best way is to start by sweeping under all things and then dumping the dustpan into the trash. You may then use a grid pattern to sweep the middle of the floor.
To do the grid pattern with sweeping, start in one corner of the room. You will then sweep all the way to the corner across the room. If furniture is in the way, sweep it in from of that so you may proceed.
After you’ve gotten to the other wall, sweep the dust pile a little to the side. This will then be swept back to the original wall you started at. Doingthis makes it so that all of the dust and dirt you’ve collect stays in one place while being moved.
As soon as you’ve swept the entire floor, you can grab your dust pan to get it all. Get low to the floor with the pan in your non dominant hand and the broom in your dominant. You will then sweep all the dirt ahead of you into the pan. To do this in the best way, sweep it in towards the pan like a V shape.
The last thing with this method is to reach your hand out and feel the floor. This is done so that you can verify if all the dust and dirt has been collected. If there is more, just repeat the step where you sweep it into the dustpan. Once it’s all in the pan, carry it with care to the trash so it doesn’t turn over and dump it into the trash.
With this method, you will be able to sweep you entire floor despite your blindness. This simple way makes things both clean and actually simple. Your house floor will look spotless to all of your visitors.
