If you and your family have to stay at home until the pandemic subsides and you are all finding it a little bit crowded and challenging, these tips could help.
Get a waste removal business to collect any superfluous clutter that's currently occupying space in your home
There are certain areas of a home where superfluous clutter always seems to accumulate; areas like a spare room, a loft, a garden shed or a conservatory often end up being clutter 'hot spots'. If you have a few areas like this in your home, and your family members do not want to hold onto most of the clutter that is sitting in these spots, then you should use the downtime that the pandemic has given you to remove this stuff from your home.
This will give your family a little bit of extra space in which to relax or work, which could, in turn, prevent the bickering that tends to occur in families as a result of living in close quarters for long periods and because of introverted relatives not having any quiet areas where they can have a moment to themselves.
Whilst normally, you could do this simply by chucking all clutter into your car and taking it to the tip, this might not be an option if you and your family are trying to avoid leaving the house in order to avoid getting sick. The best alternative is to get a waste removal business to pick it up and let them handle its disposal for you. You can leave it outside on your property and they can then collect it. This can be done without you having to have any physical interaction with the driver of the rubbish truck.
Come up with a plan for the freed-up space and implement it as soon as the clutter is gone
It is important not to dawdle when it comes to deciding how to use the space that becomes free after you de-clutter it. Instead, you and your family members should quickly come up with a plan for how you'll use it (for example, you might want to turn it into a home theatre or a reading room) and implement that plan as soon as the waste disposal business has taken away the clutter.
The reason for this is as follows; if you're the type of family who tends to accumulate clutter without even realising it, then this room won't be left clutter-free for very long. As such, if you wait a while to decide what to do with this space, the clutter might build up before you can redecorate and start using it, and you will not only end up in the same situation that you're in now (i.e. feeling frustrated by being stuck in a crowded house) but will also have to repeat the above-mentioned process again before you can actually utilise this room.
