The Brilliant Decluttering Technique That Frees Up Extra Storage Space
By CHRISTY RAE AMMONS
If you find it difficult to combat clutter in your home, the 21-toss method could be helpful. This technique requires you to donate or discard 21 items every day for a week.
Not every item needs to be substantial; even throwing out small things like an old water bottle or a T-shirt that no longer fits can help you get rid of 147 items in total.
If the idea of getting rid of 21 items daily feels overwhelming, starting with a smaller number can still be effective and help you free up extra storage space in your home.
To make the process more manageable, start with items you rarely use. For example, you can throw out expired food or donate unused but still good items to a local food pantry.
