De-clutter before you move!
Are you moving soon or thinking of selling your house? Then start to declutter already! This ensures that you have to move fewer things or that the house you want to sell immediately looks more tidy! A tidy house without too many belongings provides peace of mind for you and a potential buyer!
Here are 5 tips from SoChicken to de-clutter:
- Start small and ask yourself: "what can I get rid of right now?" and take that step immediately.
- Prepare a crate, box or crate in which you can put unnecessary items while decluttering: your get rid of box. You don't have to think about what to do with those items yet. But you can put them there already.
- Later, you can sort out which things you want to sell or give away, which can go to a charity shop and which should go for recycling.
- Make de-cluttering a regular part of your day. If you throw out ballast every day, you will make rapid progress.
- Realise that letting go of stuff is not the same as letting go of memories. Take photos while you are unpacking so you can relive the memories if you want.
