It’s a problem that shouldn’t be a problem, but many of us struggle with it – having too much stuff. The fact that you’re reading this means you’re probably looking into disposing of some junk, and in doing so, you may have realised how much unnecessary items there are in your home. If you’re a hoarder, or you’re trying to clean up a hoarder’s home, that’s a whole other story, but for the everyday Sydney resident with too many things, we’ve put together a few tips to try and simplify your life.
As seen in the War on Waste, fast fashion is a huge waste problem here in Sydney and across Australia. For many people it is a habit to wear some clothing items only a few times before throwing them away! Ideally clothes should be made to last and worn until they’re worn out; however, in today’s society this is rarely going to happen! Fortunately there are many second hand clothing shops that mean your clothes can go to a new home and not go to waste. If having too many clothes is a problem you struggle with, here’s a few tips that might help:
Hang all your clothes up back to front. When you’ve used an item, put it back in the right way around. After 3 months (or whatever time period you decide) an item is still facing the wrong way, send it to the op shop!
Set yourself a challenge – you can set the goal yourself, but some people have aimed to discard one item of clothing every day (they must have had a lot of clothes!). Make sure the goal is reasonable, otherwise you’ll pull out before you’ve managed to do much wardrobe decluttering.
Fill a garbage bag for charity. Set yourself a goal of filling a bag of clothes to give away, the size of the bag based on how many clothes you have. Doing this will force you to think about which clothing items are most important to you, and which items you can live without.

Fortunately there are many second hand clothing shops that mean your clothes can go to a new home and not go to waste. If having too many clothes is a problem you struggle with, here’s a few tips that might help:
Similar to the clothing challenge, aim to discard of one item every day. This obviously doesn’t include milk cartons and general garbage, it is for items that you’re holding on to that are creating clutter.
Give yourself 5 minutes every day for decluttering. It may include putting things aside to throw away, but it may just be putting things in their spot. It’s not uncommon for items to be left in a prominent, ‘in the way’, location despite them being used only occasionally. Hopefully you have some organised cupboard space to put belongings that are taking up useful space. If you can’t manage to set aside 5 minutes every day, schedule a time, such as a weekend, to have a big cleanup.
If there is a particular room or storage space that is excessively cluttered, get yourself some large boxes. Try to split these belongings evenly between items to throw away, items to donate to charity, and items to keep. Simply discard of the junk items and take the charity box down to your closest op shop.
Invest in a good filing system. If you don’t have one already, buy yourself a quality filing cabinet that you can store papers and other small items for easy finding. To do things right, it’s not only an investment of money, but a large investment of time to get things right from the start. Once you get in the habit of storing things properly, your office space will look so much tidier!
Take a box, and put everything from a shelf into it. Work out an organised system, and only place items back on the shelf that you know will get used. If unsure, leave in the box, and if after 3 months the items haven’t been taken out, throw them away!
Set a place for new items. Whether it’s a newspaper, mail, or any other new items, set a single place for them to go. If you don’t, they’ll get placed in all areas around the room and it will start to look cluttered again!
Hopefully some of the above ideas will inspire you to have a clean-up. As the saying goes, ‘One man’s trash is another man’s treasure’, ideally most of your items will be able to find new homes if you take them to a charity store.
