Survey #204 Response from Darlene

← Go back

March 2, 2024

PronounsShe/her
How would you rank paper clutter among the categories of stuff that you have difficulty managing?Paper is #2.
For which of the following types of paper clutter would you like to get help and/or advice? (Check all that apply.)
  • Bills
  • Financial paper other than bills†
  • Receipts
  • Mailing-list mail*
  • Medical
Please complete any of the following statements:
  • “I struggle with paper clutter because ___.”
  • “I would have an easier time managing paper if only ___.”
  • “The accumulation of paper in my home makes me feel ___.”
I would have an easier time managing paper if I could get my health insurance company to stop sending so much. Also if I knew clearly whether certain types of financial records (like taxes, for instance) NEEDED to be kept in their paper form, or if electronic copies are ok. And how long I should keep any of them
Tell us about your most treasured paper item.I no longer treasure paper records. I much prefer keeping just about everything electronically. That said, if I treasure anything, it would be my passport.
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s).How long do I need to keep ordinary monthly financial receipts and similar stuff? Is it okay to shred them after 30 days if they're not needed for warranty proof? And how about my old check registers? When can I get rid of those?
Future topics

What do/can you do with old pillows and cushions you can't use yourself? Does anyone recycle these?
