Getting rid of excess possessions reduces or eliminates storage costs
If you drive around any large metro area, you’ll notice a large number of storage units. Obviously, there is a large demand for space by people who have more possessions than will comfortably fit into their home. Many storage units cost $100 or $200 a month.
By downsizing and decluttering, you won’t have to continue paying for storage space. This simple action can easily save you a thousand dollars or more per year.
Find your bills on time so you don’t pay things late
Anyone who has ever forgotten to pay a bill because it was lost in a sea of disorganized clutter knows the frustration of paying hard-earned cash in penalties and interest because you simply have too much junk sitting around. Being disorganized is not only stressful, but it is also expensive in terms of wasted money and time spent searching for lost mail and papers.
It is truly amazing how easy it is to change this type of situation once you start clearing space and getting rid of excess junk. Important paperwork can be the easiest thing to lose in a sea of clutter.
You call to sell or donate the stuff you don’t need for cash
The most obvious way you can make money from decluttering is to sell your excess stuff. You can sell an iPhone in Canada or unused laptops and have an extra $200 dollars in your pocket in a cool 24-hour period. Garage sales are another time-tested method for selling off unwanted items to neighbors.
Another way to cash in on your extra stuff is to donate it and take a tax deduction. If your tax bracket is high enough, you can sometimes save as much money in taxes as you would selling it outright and with less hassle.
You no longer have to buy replacement items because you can’t find what you need in the clutter.
It is a rare person who hasn’t gone out to spend money on something they needed because they couldn’t find it at home. Buying duplicates is expensive. Organized people don’t have to do that.
There is no time to waste. Decluttering is a simple way to improve both your financial standing and lifestyle. There is no logical excuse for dealing with the substantial stress experienced every time you waste your time hunting for something you need and can’t find.
