[edit] I. The Rules of Zone Cleaning

  • Do not pull out more than you can put back in 1 hour.
  • If you do not know how to declutter, go to How to Declutter
  • Set your timer and work for 15 minutes. That's all. It did not get junked up in one day and it won't get clean in one day either. Patience and BabySteps.

[edit] II. How to Declutter

This is a good technique using three boxes: "Give Away", "Throw Away", and "Put Away". Line the "Throw Away" box with a plastic garbage bag. With the timer set, as soon as:

  • the "Throw Away" box gets full, tie up the garbage bag and throw it out, then line the box with a new bag.
  • the "Give Away" box gets full, put it in the car, get a new box.
  • the "Put Away" box gets full, put stuff away as fast as you can.
