As millions of people continue to stay home to contain the spread of COVID-19, there’s been a surge in demand for home items, office supplies, cleaning products, and more. To help you find what you need, we find all the best household essentials and office Covid 19 supplies that you can add to your cart right now.
1. Disinfectant spray and cleaning wipes
Both disinfecting spray and wipes can help clean the surfaces of your home and kill harmful bacteria and viruses, including the coronavirus, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
2. Paper towels in Covid 19 supplies
In order to properly clean your home with disinfectant spray, you’re also going to want some paper towels lying around, per the CDC recommendations. Rather than a reusable rag or cloth, you can throw them away after wiping away any harmful bacteria.
3. Garbage bags
Households are bound to accumulate more garbage while quarantining, so it’ll be useful to have some spare garbage bags on hand in case you run out. They’ll also come in handy for any spring cleaning, downsizing, or donating you plan on doing while at home.
4. Hand soap and hand sanitizer in Covid 19 supplies
The CDC recommends:
- Washing your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds,
- Using a hand sanitizer that has at least 60% alcohol content, to help lower your risk of infection from coronavirus. While both hand sanitizer and hand soap have been flying off the shelves, plenty of options are available from the office supply chains.
5. Printer and ink cartridges
While you may be used to satisfying all your printing needs at your office or at your local FedEx, it’s best to stay at home instead at the moment and rely on your printer to do the job. You can also stock up on ink cartridges, so you don’t run out until all this blows over.
6. Pens, paper, and other office supplies
While we’re all getting used to working from home, one of the more annoying aspects is not having all the supplies you normally would at your office, like Post-its, gel pens, notepads, and all that good stuff.
