New Series! Forgetting to Declutter: Under the Sinks
Cleaning every week may not happen for everyone. In fact, some are happy to just clean once a month.
Whatever method works for you, is what works for you. There is not “tried and true” method for how often one should clean because everyone lives differently. The difficult part comes when the places that are unseen, do not ever get cleaned.
Underneath sinks can be one of the most CLUTTERED places! I have seen pictures of underneath some sinks and wonder how dominoes is not played everyday, as bottles come crashing out the minute you try to move one.
We often think that keeping items underneath the sink is a convenient place. Well, it is until it gets so full that you don’t even know what you own anymore. That is why I feel underneath the sinks can be one of the more forgotten places to clean and declutter.
So, how do you reduce the amount of clutter underneath your sinks?
- When was the last time I used this?
- What is it used for and is it still usable?
- Do you think you will ever use it again?
- Do you have another cleaner that will work just fine?
- Does this item even belong under the sink or is there a better place for it?
This is an easy place to forget to declutter. It can be difficult to “live with less” under the sinks because you think you might use the item one day. Well, are you still waiting for that day? Don’t delay – declutter today!
