De-Clutter before Holiday Decorating
The holidays are a time for family, friends, and fun. But before you can enjoy all the festive activities, there’s one not-so-fun task that needs to be taken care of first: de-cluttering and removing unused & unwanted items.
De-cluttering may not be as exciting as putting up holiday decorations or baking cookies, but it’s a significant step in preparing your home for guests. Not only will removing the “old junk” make your home look more presentable, but it will also make it more functional, comfortable, and inviting. Plus, it’ll give you more space to hang or place all those holiday decorations!
So, where do you start? Below are some helpful tips to get started with before you contact Super Junk Removal to schedule your junk removal service.
Start with the entryway: The entryway is the first thing guests see when they come to your home, so you want to ensure it’s tidy and presentable. First, remove any shoes, coats, or umbrellas that may be lying around. If you have a lot of stuff, consider getting a coat rack or storage bench to help keep things organized. Next, create a designated space for the items that no longer fit, whether you want to throw them away or donate them. Setting them aside gives you a visual of the extra space you are creating.
Move on to the living room: This is where you’ll spend most of your time entertaining guests, so you’ll want to clear out any clutter that might be taking up space. Set aside any toys, books, or magazines lying around and not being used. Old furniture creating an eye sore? Set it alongside the unwanted shoes and coats to give yourself a vision of your newfound space. The unused/unwanted furniture will make your living room appear larger and more welcoming.
Don’t forget the garage & yard: The garage seems to be a “Catch-all” for unwanted and unused items. Starting with the garage makes it easier to see the unwanted items and helps to maintain motivation when moving to the yard. Clearing out the garage will give you the space you need to bring out the Holiday decorations without the overwhelming feeling of being engulfed in “too many things.” This will also help to weed out any old or unused decorations.
Often, the yard can contain broken or weathered toys and furniture that you may have considered “repairing.” However, once the motivation has kicked in to remove all things unnecessary, these “future” projects seem a little more “pointless” and easier to replace or remove altogether.
Finally, all of your junk has been identified! Next, it’s as simple as calling Super Junk Removal, where we will take care of all the heavy lifting and disposal without another sweat off your brow. Not only will we haul away your “junk,” we will leave it cleaner than when we arrived, giving you the ultimate peace of mind!
These simple steps will help make your home more inviting and functional during the busy holiday season. Getting started in preparation for Halloween only puts you a step ahead when it comes to Thanksgiving and Christmas, which are just around the corner. Think of the endless decorating you can do with this newfound cleanliness and space. The warmth of a de-cluttered and beautifully decorated home helps bring in the Holiday spirit, not only for you but also for the friends and family who will be joining you.
These helpful tips can help you quickly de-clutter your home before the holidays. By taking some time to tidy up now, you can relax and enjoy all the fun festivities later!
