Spring Clean Up

Spring Clean Up!

When the weather warms up we find ourselves wanting to start on all the projects we put off during the chilly winter months. Decluttering your house is a wonderful way to start your spring to do lists. I always like to have a plan before starting a project, so my time is spent wisely. One of my weak areas is getting rid of stuff. I find it takes the most time and I keep stuff that just ends up staying tucked away until I next year when I start decluttering all over again. That’s why it’s important to have a set of guidelines to help get rid of stuff easily.

Here is the list I use during my cleanup process:

Why did I get it? Do I even use this item anymore, does it serve a purpose other than collecting dust?

Will I ever use it again? This one can be tricky because here is where I will start wasting time going through stuff and imaging the ways I can use. But chances are if it has sat around for a year without me using it or even thinking about it then it is really time for it to go.

Is it in good working shape? We’ve all done it, a lamp or radio gets broken, so we set aside to be repaired. Time passes, and the dust collects and there it sits. If this is the case, then it is probably wise to just throw it out.

Now that you’ve gone through the list and have a huge pile of items to get rid of it’s time to call Bin There Dump That Ogden to assist with the removal. We have bins of numerous sizes to help with any size job. The smaller bins are good for clearing out the odds and ends we collect. Our bigger bins are ideal for hauling away appliances, furniture and any large bulky item. Give us a call and we’d be happy to help you decide on the bin that’s perfect for you.
