Tips for cleaning & getting rid of clutter

Cleaning and getting rid of clutter can be a daunting task. Here are some tips to help you get started:
- Start small. Break the job into smaller, manageable chunks.
- Take it one room at a time. Cleaning and decluttering one room at a time will help you stay focused.
- Set a timer. Give yourself a time limit to work on each task.
- Sort items into four piles: keep, donate, trash, and recycle.
- Make a donation box. Put your donations in a box or bag so Cousins can take them to the donation center as soon as you're finished.
- Get creative with storage. Invest in storage bins, hooks, or shelves to maximize space and keep things organized.
- Take before and after photos. Celebrate your progress and stay motivated.
- Reward yourself. After completing a task, reward yourself with a treat or activity.
- Ask for help. Cleaning and decluttering can be a lot of work. Ask Cousins to help you out.
