We CLEAR, You Clean

Life gets busy and we forget (or procrastinate) to do things we don’t like doing, like spring cleaning. Here at Out of Chaos, we prefer to call it Spring CLEARing. Follow our easy CLEAR process and do your spring-clearing chores before summer gets here!

The CLEAR Process

Categorize: The process of sorting and placing your household items into categories.

Limit: Reduce the items you are going to keep to make space in your home. Do you even remember you owned this? Choose between your space or your stuff.

Evaluate: Understand the benefit and value that your possessions have in your life. Is it important to have this item in your space? Is it more emotional or useful? Keep your goal in mind, when you are in doubt and struggling.

Allocate: The process in which you need to decide where to keep and store items. Allocate a room and a container to house your possessions. Commit to a consistent location so that a habit can be formed with repeated use. Choose storage solutions based on the frequency of access and volume of goods.

Remove: The disbursement of unwanted belongings. Read how to make it easier by following the 4Cs: Cash, Consign, Craigslist, or Charity. The remaining options are to recycle and/or dispose of your unwanted items.

Now that you have CLEARed your possessions Out of Chaos style, you’re ready to do some spring cleaning! (If not you, outsource and hire a cleaner as a reward!)
