Sometimes we find ourselves facing a big mess. A child's room, a garage or a closet that gives the impression it has recently experienced a particularly violent tornado. As we gaze at the toys, pieces of toys, books, dolls, clothes, sports equipment, trash etc. strewn about the space, we ask ourselves where do we start? That question stops most of us dead in our tracks. Actually, there is a definite place to begin, no matter what kind of mess you have.
First, get a big trash bag.
Storage Toy Boxes
Second begin by picking up only one kind of item. For example in a child's room - begin by picking up all of one kind of toy (doll clothes, action figures, Legos etc.) Put all of that kind of item away where it belongs. If you have no place for it, put it all in one pile, a plastic bin or a big plastic bag. If you find objects damaged beyond repair - throw them away. If you come across trash while collecting any of the items - throw it away.
Move on to the next item and continue until all categories of items are put away or everything is sorted by type. If your space is limited you may have to put your sorted items in the hall, another room or in the case of the garage the driveway. You can also get one of those clear plastic over the door shoe holders and hang it on the door of the room you are working on. You put small items into these pockets and this will help prevent them from getting lost.
If you have no storage space for your sorted items you'll have to create some. Since you have already gone through the cleaning up process it should be easier to do.
This method works for closets, files, garages - really any space that has gotten messy and out of control. If your big mess is strictly files and papers purchase a large pack of inexpensive file folders. You can sort your paperwork into these manila files and store them temporarily in those paper file boxes.
