Rubber mats don’t soak up moisture like cloth mats. They can easily be shaken out or hosed down when in a hurry. A good rubber mat will catch all dirt by completely covering your carpeted area. By protecting your carpet you vacuum less and only clean the mat. We personally recommend WeatherTech mats (not sponsored).
This is especially important when you have white or light colored seats as they tend to show stains more prominently. The protectant will give your seats a light waterproofing layer. If a spill happens it will be easier to clean and reduce the chances of it soaking into the cloth.
Simply remembering to take out cups and trash when you get out of the car will help keep your car looking clean. Once you do it a couple times it will become a good habit.
Having a microfiber, not a rag, in the car will be very helpful. They are useful for dusting off surfaces or picking up a spill, they can even be used on widows. You’ll find that they are useful for small and big clean ups.
