Local PODS® Moving and Storage Offers Declutter Tips for the New Year

VENTURA, Calif. - Jan. 30, 2018 - PRLog -- As the first month of 2018 draws to a close, many residents are working to stick to their resolutions. According to Statistic Brain, only 58.4% of resolutions make it past the first month. To help their customers maintain their home resolutions, local PODS moving and storage offers ideas about how to declutter your home for the New Year.

Tip #1- Go at your own pace. The clutter wasn't created in one day so neither will the decluttering process. Going at your own pace will allow you to keep up and develop a good routine.

Tip #2- If you don't use it, donate or sell it. People often hold onto items that they do not need. Organize your belongings by sentimental value and prune the items you are unsure of. Local PODS moving and storage offers secure, climate controlled warehouses to store those sentimental items you are not ready to part with.

Tip #3-Equip yourself with the right tools to organize your home. Using clear plastic bins to store seasonal items and labels will help keep those items clean and organized.

Tip #4-Transform Rooms: Once you have spaces opened up from junk, rearrange furniture accordingly. Organize furniture, artwork, or other memorabilia in the visually appealing coordination of threes. If there's more than three, consider storing items.

PODS moving and storage methods provide cost-effective ways to declutter and store items:

Accessibility – PODS will drop off a container and store it when filled.

Storage of Clutter – On-site or off-site storage of all those large or unruly household items. Clear houses, yard, and other living spaces of personal items so the house structure shines through.

Flexible Solutions – By storing items with PODS, there's the additional benefit of swapping out items such as holiday decorations for regular everyday belongings.

"PODS wants to meet our customers' expectations and that includes their resolutions for keeping their home clutter free for the New Year," said Steve Yapp, owner of local PODS moving and storage. "We want to make the process of decluttering your home an easy and seamless experience that will help you maintain your resolutions without the feeling of being overwhelmed."
