Clutter-Free Home: How Do You Achieve It?

By Justine Lee


Do you feel uneasy at the thought of having someone showing at your home unexpectedly? Do you feel embarassed inviting your co-worker to come inside your home? Do you often seek rest and relaxation outside your home on Saturdays and Sundays?

If your answer to the two or three questions above is yes, then there must be something in your house that's keeping you feeling uncomfortable and at the same time preventing you to open it up to people in your circle. That thing can be called clutter.

Clutter comes in different degrees. While you may not be aware of the degree of your clutter habit, the evidence is all in the piles! Take a careful look at your storage spaces and recognize the red flags, such as the chaotic drawers, the overstuffed closets, the burgeoning basements and even the contrasting objects on the walls.

In worst situations, a cluttered home becomes a source of anxiety and stress instead of comfort and peace of mind. It can ruin your personal and professional relationships too especially when you keep submitting documents late because you cannot find them in your files.

So before that happens, you need to break certain habits. You need to stop accidental collections and let go of feeling disappointed when discarding things. Otherwise, you'd get a reality check through someone else's eyes like that horrified look your friend can't hide upon seeing the mess at your home.

Here are a few important pointers that you may find helpful when you make a decision to declutter your home. First, there is no one-size-fits-all solution for this problem. You need to look for ways that will work for you on a long-term basis. Two, you must adapt a "one area at a time" strategy because progress is more guaranteed using this strategy than doing it all at once.

Making an inventory of your varying needs is also a must. This will help you determine the things that are necessary and the things you no longer need. If after the inventory you find that you don't have enough space for your things, you can consider renting a self-storage unit.

Companies that provide storage in Singapore conduct business with residential and commercial owners. The services they provide and the self storage solutions they offer are often flexible to help you meet your distinct needs and allow you to have control over your rented Singapore storage space.
