Recycles dryer sheets
DH is due to retire in 2-3 years, so I’m giving myself that timeframe to purge my house. I’m something of a hoarder, so this will be a Herculean task.
Yep. We (mostly me - DW was still working) did this along with donating and giving away household items over a two year period after our kid moved to another state. It didn't seem to make much of a difference until after the first six months when we noticed the clutter disappearing. Along the way, we found some items we thought we lost.Every week fill the trash cans. You'll make tremendous progress if you stick with it.
I was headed in a general declutter direction but with the current pandemic have kicked it into overdrive. Filling trash bin every day, trips to Goodwill and Habitat for Humanity, digitalizing photos and certificates, distributing family memorabilia to kids, ect...
Someone’s going to have to do it. Might as well be me while we are in hunker down mode.
I need to figure out how to make this project an obsession.
Watch an episode of Hoarders, it really motivates me.
I recommend Nextdoor even before Craigslist; the people are local, and (supposedly) have to use their real names and locations. It feels a little less like the wild west of the internet.
Good point. I sold my boat through Nextdoor and it was a great experience. Craigs List can be hit or miss
