Declutter Fast – How it Started
One of my clients was in this position. She had stuff in her house that had been there for decades. It was mainly junk that she had built up herself over the years as well as inherited from various friends and relatives. The problem was that she felt totally disempowered about removing it. She thought it was going to be torture!
Declutter Fast – Removing the Pain
The first problem she had was that everything looked heavy.
So here is tip number #1 – hire someone to help! We went down to the local college and put a note up for someone to help at less than ten bucks an hour. That was nothing! You could also post an add on craigslist if you don’t have a local college.

Declutter Your Home In 5 Simple Steps – Top Tips
Below, I’ve got a few ‘Declutter Your Home Tips’ that have helped me ease some of the stress in my life…
- Go Through Your Cupboards – You’ll be amazed at what you can throw out in your cupboards. The old adage out of sight, out of mind has never been more true than what you have in your kitchen… When I cleaned mine out the first time, I had old coffee bags, coffee decanters, wine bottle tops and all kinds of other things that have long been used up!
- Clean Your Bedroom Closets – Usually, the saying says if you haven’t worn a piece of clothing throw it out (or donate it to the Salvation Army)… Me, I don’t wait any more than 3 or 4 months. I don’t have many clothes and I don’t want many. I find that if I keep my clothing selection sparse, I FEEL better. My mind is more clear. Try throwing out those garments that you haven’t worn in a while!
- Clean Out Your Bookcases – I don’t know about you, but I love books. The last time I counted, I had about 350 hardbacks, paperbacks and magazines. Some of these I wouldn’t part with if my life depended on it! Others were old college books that I should have gotten rid of eons ago… Well, those were the first ones to go!
- Go Through Your Bathroom – It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out how messy and cluttered a bathroom can get. Medicine bottles and shaving cream and contact solution… Throw away all the old bottles you have. Make sure to use up everything that’s almost out… Keep your bathroom clutter free!
- Under The Bed – This part of the declutter your home process can be quite scary. My husband and I never had a problem, but my kids did! Everything ended up under the bed. Much to my dismay, I had to declutter their rooms and under their beds, throwing a lot of stuff away and organizing the rest. It was a mess!
