5 Tips to Keep Your Home Tidy
1. Mail
Look through the mail immediately and throw out junk mail first.
2. Receipts
Keep receipts for credit cards for only one month, at which time you check them off the statement for accuracy. Keep them only if you write them off for business.
3. Clothes
Get rid of clothes that you have not worn in a year or two. Many people love to shop at the Salvation Army and other resale shops. You’re doing them a favor!
4. Kitchen
Go through food cupboards every one to two months. Get rid of any non-staple foods that haven’t been touched in three months or more. A basic food inventory helps keep items from piling up in the refrigerator or the pantry.
5. Statements
Keep bank statements for the most recent year filed. Box up old statements going back seven years.
