Next, consider letting go of things like old makeup, outdated manuals, faded receipts, takeout menus, expired pantry food, damaged cookware, unused gym gear, broken toys, stacks of old magazines, and outdated party supplies. These items quietly pile up and take valuable space.
However, not everything should go. Keep sentimental items, quality tools, important documents, timeless clothing, and spare hardware. Also hold onto board games, meaningful books, reusable containers, high-quality kitchenware, and specialty clothing. These are practical, meaningful, or expensive to replace.
Decluttering is more than just tossing things—it’s about making space for what truly matters.
