Tip 1: Separate into Three Groups

  • ——
    1. To Keep
    2. To Sell
    3. 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.

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.
