Everything Must Go! Decluttering Strategies for Your Next Move

Online

The pressure of an upcoming move sharpens the urgency of eliminating stuff you no longer want or need. You can purge by making careful, calm decisions, or you can do it in a panic because you’ve run out of time and energy to pack. The choice is yours! In episode #164 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, explains how to optimize planning, packing, and moving your household. We’ll also talk about how to leverage moving strategies even when you’re staying put.

We prepared a survey to learn more about our audience’s experiences related to this topic. To answer the survey, please see Survey #164: Moving Experiences, Feelings, and Challenges.

The Clutter Fairy Weekly is a live webcast designed to help you clear your clutter and make space in your home and your life for more of what you love. We meet Tuesdays at noon (U.S. Central Time) to answer your decluttering questions and to share organizing tools and techniques, success stories and “ah-hah!” moments, seasonal suggestions, and timeless tips.

Clean Slate: Starting Fresh in a New (Organized) Space [Meetup]

A Healing Collective 4231 Bellaire Boulevard, Suite T, Houston, TX, United States

Moving to a new home or office can compound your clutter problems, or it can be a chance to make a clean break with your cluttered past. The difference is in your hands! For the July meeting of the Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup Group, we’ll discuss what to keep in mind as you prepare for a move—or plan for one that's somewhere down the road—to avoid recreating your present clutter issues in a new space. We’ll talk about how to plan for new systems and habits in your future space, and we'll suggest strategies for deciding what to leave behind.

Preparing to Move Out: Decluttering Strategies for Moving…or Staying Put (Meetup)

Online

There’s nothing like the pressure of moving to help you throw away things you don't need! Whether you purge by choice or because you're too exhausted to keep packing, the demands of a move are guaranteed to reduce your pile of possessions. But even if you won't be moving any time soon, you can still use moving strategies to help you let go of excess in your life.

This will be our second “Clutter Conversation” online event. We’ll meet using the Zoom.us video-conferencing app, a free tool that allows us to share a conversation as streaming video and take questions from the audience. Up to 100 people can participate live, and as always, we’ll record the event to post on YouTube. About a week before the event, we’ll send a reminder notice to everyone who has RSVP’d to provide instructions for sharing your questions and comments live by video, audio, or chat.
