Help! How do I get rid of unwanted junk? We don’t like to call it junk; we call it clutter. Most of the items our clients have are still good; they just aren’t serving them anymore and are cluttering their space. Before you call CLUTTER B GONE and we haul away all your clutter, here is the process for getting rid of your clutter.
#1
Prioritization: Focus on decluttering the areas or items that have the most significant impact on your life and well-being. Start with what matters most.
#2
One-in, One-out Rule: For every new item you bring into your space, consider getting rid of one similar item. This helps prevents new clutter from accumulating.
#3
Declutter Regularly: Making decluttering a routine, not a one-time event. Regularly assess your belongings and remove items that no longer serve a purpose.
#4
Sorting System: Use a sorting system with categories like Keep, Donate/Sell, and Discard. This simplifies the decision-making process.
#5
Emotional Attachment: Recognize that emotional attachment to items can cloud your judgement. Ask yourself if an item truly adds value to your life.
#6
Minimalism: Embrace the concept of minimalism, which promotes owning only what you need and cherish. Less can often lead to a happier clutter-free life.
#7
Storeage Solutions: Invest in storage solutions like bins, shelves, and organizers to maintain an organized space.
