Decluttering your home is certainly a tedious task
that takes much time and effort. The worst part of all is that even after you spend
hours going through things, you end up with a pile of clothes and objects that
you simply can't throw out. Typically you get rid of a little part of the
unnecessary staff and in the process decide to keep most of it – not the best
strategy for a streamlined home.
Now may be your time to start getting serious about
downsizing. Even though this may sound like an easy
thing to do, once you start doing the cleaning and the organisation you will
find out that it's not. Focus only on the important items and throw out
everything else you won't need in the future. Speed up the process with these
tips:
Sort through everything The decluttering
process will be faster if you designate different boxes for the things which
you plan to toss out, the things you plan to keep and one more for things which
you can donate or give away. This simple system will help you sort through your
things faster.
Toss out the old clothes The hardest
thing for some people is to part with is clothes, mainly because they are
memory holders. This can be such an issue that in the end nothing gets
downsized. Don't get distracted by putting on old dresses and other clothes –
it takes time and brings on nostalgia. Just give each piece a quick look and
make a snap decision.
Donate the baby stuff or give them to
a friend who can use them. They aren’t getting any use in a box in the attic.
Don't keep old appliances You probably got new ones because they old ones are broken.
They take up lots of space and use lots of electricity. Go on your local
municipality website for proper disposal channels.
Approach the big job of decluttering room
by room and you will find that with commitment and decisive action you can
clear the clutter and enjoy your home more.

Having a clean and decluttered home is stress reducing. My wife and I do a clean every few months. Some how we always end up with a big bag of stuff to donate. We have no idea how we accumulate so much stuff every few months but it happens every time!
good spring cleaning advice. thank you

Tossing out old clothes is actually quite funny. Not only do old clothes bring some memories, but are also a measure for your current body shape.
I`m late already with my spring cleaning so this can help me a lot :) Thank you so much :)
My house is clean at this moment but the basement is full of unnecessary stuff. :(
I used to keep a lot of stuff I was not using, but I threw away much of it in my last spring cleaning.
My wife likes to keep things we do not need. I really hate to store such things ... We always have disputes on this topic ...
thanks nice share...
