As we are on the subject of giving things away, now is a good time to sort out some of the junk that is lying about. A friend of mine adopts a four-box policy, which seems to work well in their house. The four categories for the boxes are
Cardboard, bottles, plastics etc -for the recycling centre
Give Away/Sell – for the charity shops or advertise in the local paper, Freecycle, when it’s set up (or e-bay)
Storage – things that you will need regularly.
Put away –things that you don’t want but do not like to get rid of (make this the smallest
category as things aren’t really any use stuck in a damp shed or attic).
