Use the four-box method.
The four-box method is an effective way to help your clutter. Just find four boxes and label them with the following categories:
- Trash: These are items that you no longer need or want. But, they’re also not worthy of donating or selling.
- Give away/sell: For the things that may have value to others, donate or sell them.
- Store: Seasonal clothing hanging in your closet when it’s 30 degrees outside.
- Keep and put away: For the things that you use regularly
