There are many reasons you could be downsizing. Perhaps the kids have grown up and moved out and now you are an empty-nesters. Maybe you’re a college student moving into your first small dorm room. Or perhaps you are moving from the suburbs to a small city apartment. Whatever your reason, downsizing is a great opportunity to get organized with your belongings. Here are some ways you can prioritize what is important in your new space.
• Sort & Pile – go through your belongings and decide what is necessary versus what can be sold and/or donated. Chances are if you’re downsizing, you will need to get rid of some things or move them into storage
• Research storage options – find the storage facility that works best for your needs and your budget
• Invest in home storage furniture – whether you need compact shelving or under-the-bed storage, having organized but not bulky storage in your home will be crucial to making the most of your space
• Digitize – if you have an extensive library, DVD, or photo collection, look into how you can transfer it onto a computer or external hard drive. This will save you a lot of space.
There are many ways to make the most out of your new, smaller home. Get creative, and plan ahead. Sometimes less is more!
