While there might be people that are setting health and weight loss goals left at right at the beginning of a new year, there are others who will take a different approach in their goals. Some people have decided that this will be the year when they organize their home for good. It doesn’t take long to accumulate things that you don’t need. This might be the focus of your New Year’s resolutions. Your home might be getting an overhaul as you work to organize your entire house. Mickey’s Carting is here to share some tips to help you get started.
How to Get Started Organizing Your Home
There is nothing better than the feeling of getting your home organized. Even though it feels good to get it done, getting started can seem like an overwhelming task. Here are some tips to help you get started and successfully complete your whole house organization project:
– Categorize Your Stuff: To start organizing, you have to know what things you have to work with. Go through your home, room by room and assess your belongings as you make decisions about what you want to keep and what where you want to put it. You will have some items that you will simply decide to throw away and others that you will likely decide to donate to someone else that could use them.
– Work One Room at a Time: When you think about the entire house and organizing it, you will more than likely feel overwhelmed by the idea. When you take on one room at a time, it is much more manageable. Working in smaller increments can be beneficial and help you feel accomplished as you work.
– Consider the Last Time You Used It: As you think about the items you’re working with, think about the last time you used the item. Have you used it in the last year? If not, then you might be fine getting rid of it. Seasonal items will be an exception to this rule.
– Storage Solutions: You will need to have some storage solutions in place to help you put everything in its rightful place. Consider shelving, totes, and other organizational systems that will help you get it all tucked away neatly.
– Maintenance Plan: You need to establish a maintenance plan to help you come up with a system that helps you get rid of things effectively as they start to accumulate. It will help you keep the organization you worked so hard at, in place.
