One of the best ways to get organized—whether it be your home, office, or car—is to remove clutter.

Rather than trash your old clothes, furniture, or appliances, why not donate them to a good cause? There are so many resources around the Seattle area for donating and recycling old goods. We’ve compiled a list of donation resources by item category, like clothing, electronics, and furniture, to save you time in the de-cluttering process.

March 16, 2012

Is looking through your home or work files like traveling back to the past? Are there forms and documents dusty with age and obsolete with time? Are you still holding onto that one receipt from that purchase back in the 80’s?

If this scenario sounds familiar, you might be holding onto some paper for too long. It’s great to keep records and maintain a good filing system for your important documents, but you actually only need to keep certain types of documents for a specific amount of time, and then you can let them go. Understanding the necessary timeline for keeping documents (and destroying documents) is pivotal to maintaining good paper management.
