Moving can be an overwhelming process. Now that you’ve found your new home in Pasadena, the time has come to move in and help your family settle. But it’s easy to collect clutter all over your home during the time you’ve spent there. Here are some tips on how to get rid of all that clutter.
Figure Out What Is Clutter
The first big step is to determine what is clutter and what isn’t. It’s one thing to hang onto items you’d use every day, such as kitchen gadgets and plastic containers or plastic silverware, but you should get rid of them if you haven’t had reason to use them in several months. Beyond clearing out the kitchen, you should also take the time to decide which clothes and shoes no longer fit or that you don’t want to take with you to your new home in Pasadena. If you don’t wear it anymore, you are under no obligation to keep it.
Don’t Feel Obligated
Moving is a long process, even if you have to move quickly. That’s why decluttering and removing what you don’t need is so important. Get as much help from movers and your friends and family as possible to make the whole process easier. That said, when you need to figure out what you’re keeping, don’t feel obligated to keep anything just because it was given to you by friends or family. That means you should think of some way to put it into storage or to donate it, although you can take a few minutes to reflect on why it was so special to you in the first place, as a reflection on the memories you made while you lived in your current home.
Start Over
When you are decluttering your current home, it’s so you can start over. After all, a new home should represent a fresh start. But you can donate what you don’t need, either giving it away to friends and neighbors or bringing it to charity organizations and thrift shops or second-hand stores. You’ll feel much happier in a house that doesn’t feel so weighed down with all that clutter, especially if you’ve always lived that way. When you move into your new home in Pasadena, you no longer have to – new home, new beginning!
