Lets get started, room-by-room. Below are tips to tackle decluttering your home. First, create four boxes:

Box 1: Trash – Designate a box for items that trash. Any items you want to get rid of that aren’t worth donating or selling should go here. 

Box 2: Give Away – Designate a box for items that you can donate to a Salvation Army or another person. These should be items you love, but don’t have a use for it. {Don’t forgive your tax write off slip!}

Box 3: Storage – Designate a box for things that you do not want to get rid of, but don’t use everyday!

Box 4: Put Away – Designate a box for any items that need to be in it’s proper place.
