Hello.
I don't keep things that I don't need or use anymore. I am ruthless about either selling them or donating them to charity shops. Anything utterly useless gets taken to the dump if it's big, or simply put in the bin if it's small.
DH and I have a routine for chores and we try to stick to it. I have certain days when I do certain things - for example today is Friday, so I empty all the waste paper baskets in the house, and clean the bathroom really thoroughly. I clean the sink every day, of course, but I deep clean the bathroom once a week.
DH does all the floors, daily. So he mops the kitchen and bathroom floors, and hoovers all the carpets every day.
I do all the washing because I'm better at it. He does all the gardening because he's better at that. He also takes the big bins out.
I shop online and he either collects it, or it's delivered.
I dust and polish every Saturday throughout the house, and we change the bed between us then, too.
I never need to tidy up because nothing is ever untidy.
When the children were small we tidied up their toys once they'd gone to bed.
I make sure that the sitting room is ready for occupation the next day before I go to bed. I plump up the cushions and take any mugs and plates through.
I never leave washing up till the morning. DH does all the washing up after dinner (I cook) but anything we use during the evening gets washed up before I go to bed.
Your best bet is to do a thorough, ruthless declutter before you try to implement a routine.
