Start with the EASY wins
Decluttering can be tough work. If it was easy to get rid of things, the home organization industry wouldn’t rake in billions of dollars each year. That’s why we recommend starting your purging journey by first getting rid of larger, less-sentimental items. Think old furniture, outdated electronics and appliances, unused sporting equipment, and the like. After that, move to the rooms you use the least, like your basement, attic, and garage. When you see how much progress you can make in a short amount of time, you’ll be motivated to keep the momentum going. Added bonus? You’ll be more emotionally able to part with other possessions that have more sentimentality or value.
Seperate your rooms as Individual Projects
After your big wins, it’s time to move to other areas of your home. Go room by room, looking through every cabinet, pantry, closet, and drawer. Pull out things you no longer use, that are outdated, expired, etc. Now that you have everything out in the open, you’ll need to sort through it. To make this easier, group items into four categories or piles: donate, sell, recycle, and trash. You may even want to consider a fifth “maybe” category if you’re on the fence about any items.
If you’re having trouble deciding if something is worth keeping, ask yourself a few simple questions:
- Do I love it?
- When was the last time I used it?
- Would I miss this item if it was gone?
- Do I have something else that serves the same purpose as this item?
