6 Tips For When You Are Overwhelmed with Clutter and Don't Know Where to Start



Are you ever so overwhelmed with clutter and have no idea where to start? This is such a common problem for our clients and the reason why so many of them reach out to us in the first place to help them get organized. Clutter can be a very daunting and unwelcoming thing that leads to an endless amount of unnecessary stress. That is where professional organizers come into place and help you tackle your clutter by asking the right questions, coaching you through everything and making sure everything has a home.

Below are 6 tips to help you tackle the clutter. 

  • Make a list of all the areas that make you overwhelmed and/or that you want to get organized. Making a list helps many people get their thoughts out and feel a little less stressed.  
  • Start small and slow. Organizing can take a lot of time, so try to break up large projects into smaller projects. For example, if you are starting in your master bedroom, start with a small pile you may have, then onto the dresser or a drawer within the dresser, then maybe just shirts from your closets, and so on.
  • Calendar your broken up areas to tackle. This will help you stay on task and know exactly what you need to tackle without thinking about it all the time. 
  • Start in areas that give you the most stress. Once these areas are done you will fell a lot less overwhelmed. 
  • Have an accountability partner. If you know you do not stay on task well, ask someone to be your accountability that will motivate and encourage you along the way. 
  • Enjoy your organized spaces!
