Tips to Automate Household Chores

I can't afford to hire a housekeeper, and I work full time. I don't have other family members to share the burden of taking care of household chores. How do I keep my house in order and maintain a good quality of life? Automate! Here are some ideas and feel free to add yours.

Laundry

Hey, automation doesn't have to be by machines ;-) Pack your laundry in a bag and call the local laundry pickup and delivery service. Your clothes will come back clean, fresh and ready to wear! You can further automate by subscribing to a weekly or biweekly delivery.

No time for cooking and clean up afterwards? There's nothing more convenient than having your favorite food delivered to you! You can use an app like UberEats, or order from your favorite local restaurant or supermarket as well.

Prescriptions delivered to you

Prescriptions delivered to you

You have probably used apps that allow you to refill prescriptions and have them delivered to you. But many drugstores, like the pharmacy near me, also have online stores where you can buy home healthcare products, personal care and even household products and deliver to you as well. Check them out!

Propane delivery

Automatic propane delivery

If you use propane for heating, cooking, etc. for your home, sign up for automatic propane delivery. With automatic delivery, the supplier knows when to deliver propane to you without you having to call them. You'll never run out of fuel because you forgot to check or to call. Isn't that a life saver?

The robot vacuum can only clean the floors. You'll still need the clean the bathrooms and the kitchen, do some dusting, etc. Getting the cleaners to come every two weeks will do the trick!

Rent a Dumpster for Cleanups

Rent a Dumpster for Cleanups

De-clutter your house at least once a year to make your daily cleaning easier. Save yourself trips to the town recycling center and rent a dumpster instead. The dumpster rental company will haul your junk away for you!

Shop online for medications and household essentials

Whether it's medications, vitamins, home health products, shampoos and bathing soaps, cleaning products, stationery, or even seasonal gifts, you can save time by buying online from your local pharmacy and have the products delivered to you free. Shop local and support your own community!

Customized Medication Packaging System

Medication packaging systems helps you take the right medications, the right amount at the right time. Each sealed pill cup contains all of the patient’s non-liquid oral medications, which are color-coded and separated by the time of day for administration. Each cup is labeled with the patient’s name, the type and dose of the medication, and the precise date and time to take the medication.
