Tip 1: Separate into Three Groups
- ——
- To Keep
- To Sell
- To Donate
For the ones you’ll keep:
- Start packing them into storage bins so they’ll be more organized. By doing so, it still gives you access to them while making your room feel bigger and more spacious
- If they still make your home feel cluttered, have them stored for a while in a storage unit.
Tip 2: Empty out your Closets
Start putting away clothes you don’t need and pack them up. If you’re selling your home, store necessary clothes in a suitcase for easier access, while putting away the rest in packing boxes.
Tip 3: Clear your countertops
To make your kitchen and bathroom look neat and tidy, clear the countertops! For bathrooms, store hygiene products in smaller storage boxes like Tupperware, etc. so it will be more accessible for you to use.
Remember!
One can tell how well cared for a home is by its tidy walls, pantry, garage, and yard. So make sure to stay organized while keeping your home in top shape!
