[quote=Anonymous]In addition to the great tips above, I had a big realization this fall that helped a ton: you don't have to wait till you've triaged everything to have junk guys come and take some stuff away. I had Eco City Junk (fantastic, kind, and found thanks to a DCUM rec) come and take away several large items that should have gone years ago, which cleared literal and mental space for me to tackle other things. Broken chairs I'd never get around to having repaired, spare box spring, ancient TV, old rolled up rugs I'd never useāGONE! And that left me room to look around the basement and actually see what the other stuff was, and one clear tabletop to start sorting boxes on. From there, the donating/gifting/sorting/labeling process really picked up steam, because it didn't seem like an unstartable or physically undoable project anymore.[/quote]
