Schools are almost back.👩🎓👨🎓Here is some top tips to declutter.
With a clear storage plan, going back to school can be stress-free.
Here is a 4-step checklist to declutter your kids' belongings for the new school year, with Kangaroo Self Storage handling the extras.
1. Clothes that no longer fit.🩳👕👖🥻
Go through your children's clothes and remove everything they have outgrown. These are perfect for storage, either to pass down to younger siblings or to donate later.
2. Old school projects.📝✂🧶
While some are keepsakes, others are not. Keep the truly special pieces and store them with Kangaroo. The rest can be recycled or digitized by taking a picture.
3. Toys they have aged out of.🤿🪀📕🪆
Children’s interests change quickly. Sort their toys and move anything they have outgrown into storage. Removing unused toys from the bedroom creates space and reduces daily clutter.
4. Bulkier, seasonal gear.
The start of a new school year often overlaps with changing seasons. Store heavy winter coats, boots, and sports equipment like ski gear now, making room in your wardrobes for school uniforms.
