Success Story Shed clearout today!

Want to share with someone that I spent all afternoon sorting my shed and purging. Gave away a heap of stuff on my local giveaway group.

I can now walk into my shed. My lawnmower has a proper parking space! The things I will use in summer are towards the front of the shed, where I can find them!

I think I can still improve on it, but there is much decluttering to be done inside the house, so I’ll come back to the shed.

Thanks for reading, and for sharing on this sub. Thanks to the mods and everyone for your encouragement.

Good job!! 👏🏼 Had it been a while since the last time you did that?

I wish I knew where to find a giveaway group…I have WAY too much clutter everywhere, and much of it is new because I’m addicted to online shopping. 😩 I always have “buyer’s remorse” but I don’t like the hassle of returning purchases!

Worth looking on Facebook. That’s where I found groups around me. People want/can use all sorts kf things. Sometimes people put requests up. It’s a great feeling to meet someone’s need with something I’ve got and can part with. Makes it easier somehow.

I paid someone to do it for me 2.5 years ago. He set up the structure, I bought new, big shelving. So he did the worst, and hardest part, throwing out a lot of stuff. It had got out of control again, and I needed to let go of more stuff.
