Downsizing and Decluttering for 2022!

Published: January 01, 2022

Everyone has their own new year’s resolution. If yours is to declutter and downsize for 2022, UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Northwest DFW has expert tips for you. Read on to find out more.

• Separate your belongings into categories. Have three separate piles: one for items that you want to keep, one for donating and selling, and one for trashing. This will make your decluttering process much more efficient, and by laying it all out it gives you a clear catalog of everything you have. Beware, though: this sight may make you want to downsize even more!

• Storage features to consider when decluttering and downsizing. There are lots of factors to consider when storing your items – will they be damaged by the elements? How fragile are they? With UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Northwest DFW, you can’t go wrong. With our all-steel, weather-resistant, portable storage containers at your use, you’ll be able to store your most valuable and precious belongings in a clean, climate-controlled facility. We won’t hold you to a schedule, either – take your time packing your items to make sure they won’t get damaged.

• Other decluttering tips. When decluttering your home, you’re not just using our storage units for just extra space. You’re also using it for organization. If you’re using one of our smaller units, line the walls with your belongings carefully. If you’re using our larger variant, you can utilize the floor space so long as you keep enough room open for aisle navigation. And remember, avoid stacking boxes above shoulder height, and never stack heavier boxes on top of lighter ones.

With these tips at your disposal, you’re sure to get your home downsized and decluttered for the new year. And when you need that extra space, call UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Northwest DFW at (817) 396-6962 to speak with one of our moving experts and get a free quote on our services!
