How do I start to declutter my house?
Organisation Routine:
Building a routine is an extremely effective way to help make your home organisation feel more natural.
Whether you need organisation tips for work, organisation tips for school or just organisation tips for your bedroom, a routine is the best tool to use.
Why an Organisational Routine is helpful:
- You can set out what exactly you need to do.
- Work out how much time you need to do it.
- This dedicated time allows you to focus on organising and decluttering your home.
Once you have set a routine, you will only become more efficient the more you follow it. Helping you save time over the long term. In the short term, you will find that scheduling will help you to focus more effectively on tasks, and even leave you with some extra free time.
Label Making:
Label making is one of the best ways to organise your home and save time. We’ve all had the trouble of frantically looking for a specific item. Label-makers helps to cut this stress. By setting out where everything is, you can find what you’re after even quicker and spend additional time on more important matters.
It helps keep your home organised too. Rather than putting all your stuff to the side and letting it pile up, you can give it a dedicated space and neatly sort it all out. Sticker label makers are also great because if you want to move anything around, simply unpeel the label and place it somewhere else!
Chargers:
We have messy wires and chargers, it’s nearly inevitable at this point. We do recommend sorting your chargers, removing any old chargers you don’t need and making everything neat with a cable organiser. But we are also going to suggest another method also.
How do I keep my charger cables tidy?
If you are working on your phone or want your phone on you while sorting your home, maybe consider taking a portable charger with you too. With this, you won’t need to worry if your phone battery goes low and you won’t have to slow down while working.
Looking for a new charger? We have several available now in our mobile accessories range.
Schedule as much as you can:
It can be easy to get distracted by all the tasks that you may have but scheduling as much as you can is a top tip when it comes to making your life easier. Consider what you need to do and when along with how much time and schedule your time effectively so that you won’t get distracted. Choosing a time to organise and declutter is one thing, but balancing it with work, your social life and time to relax is something else. Scheduling helps to bring an effective balance for all of them.
Draw Organisers:
Are drawer organizers worth it?
Storage organisation hacks are great for keeping everything in one place. And draw organisers are neat little tools that help you to sort your storage space more efficiently. A super quick and easy way to reduce clutter and keep lots of different items in their own dedicated space. They are a big help in making sure all your little things don’t get lost or forgotten about and are relatively cheap.
Organise Vertically:
A common tip when it comes to organising and decluttering. By organising vertically, you are going to save a lot of space compared to horizontally organising. Make the most of your shelves and surfaces by carefully stacking what you can.
Dedicated Shelves and Cupboards:
It can be tempting to put everything together to save time while organising. But in the long term, this is just going to cause more chaos as it becomes harder to track what is where. We’ve mentioned already using dividers, but dedicating shelves, cupboards or other storage to alike items is key. Make sure to put similar items together and make the most of dividers and labels to make the most of it.
Wall Mounts:
Struggling to find space around the house? Then it’s time to think about using your other surfaces to use. Wall mounts are a perfect tool in this matter. When you haven’t got space on your shelves or in your cupboards, then investing in some wall mounts is an easy way to get more storage space. And there are a lot of different mounts you can get, including wall mounts for your kitchen appliances, electronics, accessories, and a lot more.
Replace Old Electronics:
One thing you may want to consider when decluttering is what you don’t need anymore. This could be anything. Like getting rid of old tech, clothes and other appliances that no longer have a use. And with rising energy costs, it is important to consider what electrics in your home are no longer efficient and are proving costly. In this case, you will want to replace the old with something smarter.
Replacing your old tech with new and smarter models is not only a good way to conserve energy, but also a massive help in staying organised. Smart home electronics are a good example of this. Rather than your old lightbulbs, why not consider setting up a smart lighting system that you can control completely from your phone. The same applies to smart thermostats, speakers and more. You can schedule what time you want everything on, easily control everything rather than rushing around and easily organise your home.
We also have collections of smart home devices now. Including smart lighting and smart doorbells.
Robotic Vacuums:
Is it worth getting a robot vacuum?
Delegating is a top way of being efficient. Organising and decluttering your home can be a real chore, and vacuuming is one of the most time-consuming activities. And that is a lot of time you can be spending doing something else. How do I reduce the amount of time I spend hoovering? It’s simple, delegate through a robotic vacuum.
Robot vacuums can be easily activated through an app. Simply put it down in the room you want to tidy up, and it will do it. Leaving you with plenty of time to do something else.
