Top Organizing Mistakes That Make Your Pleasanton CA Home

Look Messy

It’s not easy keeping your Pleasanton luxury home clean and organized all the time, especially with family members coming in and out and dropping their items on the counter as they walk by. While you may have a clean-looking home right now, maintaining order might be difficult. Try to recognize if you keep repeating the following organizing mistakes:

You mistake “clean” for “organized”.

Having stacked piles of different items on your counter or floors may seem orderly to you, but organizing a space for such items is very helpful. Provide a designated space for items such as mail, keys, receipts, etc to help you maintain clutter-free counters all the time.

Organize a plan before you start a cleaning project

Many people clean their homes on a regular basis, but continue to stack paperwork. On your next cleaning day, stop and plan how many storage bins you might need to complete the organization project.

Buying Storage Bins

A trip to the store for organizing supplies is considered by some people as one of the perks of cleaning your home. Unfortunately, when one goes to the store to buy storage bins and boxes without planning first, then these same boxes turn out to be additional clutter. Make sure to plan the purchases ahead of time by doing a rundown of all the items in your house and deciding on a strategy on how to get everything organized.

You think an organizing product can solve your clutter.

Organizing a bookshelf or shoes in your closet is a great accomplishment. Just remember that those same items, over time, will need to continually be put back in their designated space in order to stay organized.

You do not maximize space.

While the minimalistic style of a home has gained much popularity over the years, it becomes troublesome for people who are bombarded with clutter to adopt such a style.
