5 Cleaning Tips for a Clutter-Free Home

Cleaning is essential to living in a stress free and organized home. A seasonal cleaning allows you to declutter your home and enjoy the easy and renewed attitude that comes with simply getting rid of unnecessary junk. Spring cleaning isn't only for spring. Whether it is summer, fall or if the holidays have come around, any time is a good time to start living in a tidy and stress free home. Does the task of getting rid of your belongings seem daunting at first? Follow these steps on decluttering your home and taking on junk removal to freshen up your life and space. 

Start Preparing 

1. Grab a notepad and take a look around your house. Make a list of all the rooms (e.g. garages, living rooms, basements) you would like to clean and what items you need to remove (e.g furniture removal, appliance removal, hot tub removal, debris removal, etc). Not all items need to be tossed out. Some can be donated or sold. Separate your list into two categories. One for all junk that will be removed and thrown out and the other for non cleaning tasks such as donating used clothing. 

2. Take a calendar and set aside a day or two for when you want to get started on your cleaning. Find the right people for the job to throw out your trash and haul away your junk.

3. Give yourself goals for what you would like to see finished by a certain time. Whether you are renting a dumpster or having professionals remove junk for you, pace your cleaning and give adequate time for each task depending on its size. Keep this written down on your list as you go room to room freeing up your space. 

4. Categorize your items to make sure everything goes where it needs to. Mark your boxes or items as junk to make sure it gets disposed of. Mark items as donate, sell or storage if you are looking to place them elsewhere. 

5. Now it's time to start the cleaning. Leave the heavy lifting of junk removal to professionals and let them haul heavy items out of the house for you. Focus on the smaller, more productive tasks of organizing and cleaning your other items so you can make the most of as you build your clutter free home.
