A new year calls for new beginnings. For some, it might mean working out more; for others, it might mean starting their decluttering journey. If you’re part of the latter, our new guide is just for you. At Flannery’s Handymen, we put together a list of easy ways you can start decluttering your home today. Learn more below.
How Do I Start Decluttering Today?
Start small: choose your closet, or a drawer. By starting small, you’ll be able to see your progress, which will encourage you to later take on larger projects. One popular decluttering method is the four box system: label your items as either a “keep”, “donate,” “store”, or “trash.”
What Should I Do with Large Items?
For large like old furniture or broken appliances, you should consider hiring a professional junk removal service. With a handyman service, they”ll help you load all your bulky items before taking it to a junkyard. Voila–you’ll never have to see your junk again!
How Do I Maximize My Home’s Storage Space?
You can maximize your home’s storage space by installing new shelves, closet organizers, or wall mounted cabinets. In certain instances, some homes also have unused vertical space that can be transformed into more storage with a few simple additions.
- Floating Shelves: Add storage and display space to living rooms or bedrooms without taking up floor area.
- Garage and Basement Shelving: Install sturdy, heavy duty racks to organize tools, holiday decorations, and storage bins.
- Custom Closet Systems: Maximize closet space with a mix of hanging rods, shelves, and drawers to fit your specific wardrobe needs.
I Decluttered My Home. What’s Next?
What is the final step after decluttering a room?
You’re almost done. Now that the clutter is gone, you might notice areas with scuffed paint, or a loose doorknob, or a squeaky cabinet hinge that was previously hidden. Taking care of these minor fixes will make the room feel brand-new. Once repairs are done, a thorough cleaning will remove the dust and grime stirred up during the sorting process, leaving you with a clean & healthy space to thrive in.
