This month JAM Organizing presents another informative article from a guest blogger. Enjoy! It's not common to pair summer with cleaning and decluttering. Summer is for getting away, eating ice cream, and having lots of fun! Spring or the beginning of the year is the big clearout period, right? Don't discount summer as the perfect time for decluttering. It's a great season to organize your belongings and make space for new things. Read on for some excellent reasons why. You're in a Better MoodIt is not necessary to research to demonstrate that most individuals like the summer more. The combination of extended hours of daylight and bright sunlight makes for the ideal conditions for joyful moments. You will be in a great mental state, and as a result, you will make more of an effort to make good changes in your life. You can go to unique places, try new things, or even declutter when you are most willing to do the work. Also, decluttering itself reduces stress and helps relaxation, so you'll only multiply the happiness and good mood. It's a Good Time for a Garage SaleAfter decluttering, one of the main concerns is what to do with everything you've decluttered? In summer, when the weather is nice and sunny, it's the perfect time to eliminate all the clutter and conduct an exciting garage sale. Also, according to the experts at Teddy Moving and Storage, this can be an excellent opportunity to decide what things you want to keep and what you want to put in storage. Since the summer is a time of festivals and good fun, you'll want some extra cash. And a successful garage sale can provide that. A lovely summer day may be perfect for this – so set a date and start decluttering. How to Have a Successful Garage Sale A garage sale is not always easy, especially if it's your first or you haven't had one in a long time. To help make your garage sale a smashing success and to help you earn enough to buy those concert tickets you want, check out the following:
You Can Work with Items Outside.When you declutter, you may find items that are damaged or otherwise need a little refreshment. A piece of furniture may need a good clean, or an extra coat of paint or seal. You may find a rug that needs a proper scrub and some time in the sun to dry. In summer, you'll have fewer worries about working outside until the process is finished. It's easier to use your yard as a multi-purpose space. Declutter Your Garden TooDecluttering your garden can be difficult when the weather is unpredictable or unpleasant in spring, autumn, and winter. Making an effort to take care of gardening gear is challenging if a storm suddenly appears. When the weather is lovely, cleaning up the garden and eliminating the old toys, pots, and tools is much less of a chore. So, why not clear the clutter out of the garden now? That way, you'll enjoy the benefits of decluttering without worrying something will ruin it in a heartbeat. Make Life Easier for Future YouDuring the summer, we don't spend as much time inside as during other seasons. Once fall arrives, you'll want to be curled up on the couch watching the newest episodes of your favorite shows. If you start decluttering your home right now, you'll be able to maximize space and make room for all the cozy indoor activities. Prepare for the Unexpected If you need to leave on short notice and even vacate your apartment in a hurry, the more you've decluttered, the better. According to professional movers, it's better to prepare for those times in summer, when you have a little extra time on your hand, than in the busy hours of other seasons. Bottom LineFor all the reasons listed above and more, don't discount summer as the perfect time for decluttering. So, use these hot days to dive in and make your living space enjoyable. Besides being extremely healthy, it can be a fun activity for the whole family to enjoy!
