The Last-Minute Hosting Checklist: 7 Quick Fixes for a Guest-Ready Home
Company’s coming... and the clock is ticking. Don’t stress, just follow this simple, smart checklist to make your space feel clean, fresh, and ready for guests. With a few fast wipes, spritzes, and resets, you can go from “chaos” to “come on in” in minutes.
Here’s how to pull it off with Puracy favorites that do the job quickly and beautifully.
1. Start with the Counters
Use: Granite Cleaner
Wipe down prep zones like kitchen islands and counters for a streak-free surface that’s ready for action. This formula works on granite, marble, quartz, and more, helping remove fingerprints, crumbs, and residue quickly.
Bonus Tip: Keep it handy to spot-treat sticky corners or coffee rings before guests notice.
2. Shine Up the Appliances
A quick polish on your fridge, oven, and dishwasher makes a huge difference. This cleaner removes smudges and fingerprints without scratching or clouding the finish, leaving a natural lavender scent behind.
Why it shines: Gives your kitchen an instant upgrade with minimal effort.
3. Speed Clean High-Touch Surfaces
Give extra attention to tables, chairs, doorknobs, light switches, and handles. This multi-surface formula cleans with plant-based ingredients and leaves behind a light, refreshing scent.
Quick tip: Focus on the areas guests are most likely to touch.
4. Reset the Guest Bathroom
Use: Everyday Surface Cleaner + Gel Hand Soap
Wipe down the sink and faucet, fold fresh towels, and check the toilet paper. Add a bottle of Puracy Gel Hand Soap for a gentle, naturally fragranced handwashing experience everyone will appreciate.
Hosting tip: Add a candle or room spray to complete the vibe.
5. Stain Patrol
Use: Stain Remover
Hosting = spills. Stay ahead of the chaos by keeping this powerhouse formula nearby. Whether it’s BBQ sauce, red wine, or mystery punch, pre-treat stains as soon as they happen so they don’t have time to set.
Smart move: Keep a clean cloth and stain remover on standby during the party.
6. Handle Carpet & Upholstery Trouble
Use: Carpet & Upholstery Shampoo
Give your living room a quick refresh. Target any dull or dingy spots on area rugs or furniture, especially around high-traffic zones.
Good to know: This plant-based formula is designed for deep cleaning but works just as well for quick touch-ups.
7. Tidy Up After Pet Guests
Hosting furry friends too? Handle accidents quickly and naturally. This enzymatic formula helps break down organic stains while deodorizing with a light, clean scent.
Fresh finish: Great for cleaning up surprise messes or refreshing litter box areas before guests arrive.
