Take Some Time to Get Organized

 3/24/2020

  

Many of us are stuck at home thanks to COVID-19. If you are staying home you are helping combat one of the worst pandemics the world has seen in a century. That makes you awesome, but just because you are awesome doesn’t mean you aren’t bored. When boredom strikes, why not take some time to organize?

You’ve probably been staring at the same room for a couple of weeks and don’t know where to start. That’s totally normal. We’ve got some tips to help you get organized:

 

1. Wait to clean until after you gather your clutter

Your clutter has likely collected dust. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, but it’s true. If you clean your home and then tackle your clutter, you’re just letting that dust fall all over your home. Then you have to clean your home twice, and that is not fun.

2. Organize your clutter into piles

Create two piles. One pile is for those things you still want to keep. The other is for you to donate. Don’t bother putting things in their place yet. By pre-organizing your clutter before putting things away, you’ll be able to go faster.

3. Box up the donate pile

Right now isn’t the best time to donate (mostly because of COVID-19). So box up your donate pile. When things calm down, and your favorite Goodwill attended donation center opens, just grab the donation box and bring it to us.
