Spring cleaning is the perfect opportunity to make changes in your home and end the year on a fresh note. It is time for you to go through your house and make it easier to keep clean, decluttered, and organized. Decluttering your home can be a difficult task, and you might not feel up to taking on the challenge. If so, these 10 Spring cleaning tips will make it easier to declutter your home.

1. Cleanout The Pantry

Empty your pantry and throw away all the old food that is past its expiration date. Make it a point to keep the fresh food such as fruit, vegetables, and meat and take away the rest. Clear out those no longer usable things.

2. Clear Your Basement

You will be surprised by the amount of junk that your basement has. Clear out the useless items such as old toys, old furniture, clothes, and other things. If there is something that you don't use anymore, you can put them up for a yard sale. You can turn some of your clutter into extra cash while making your basement a comfortable living space.

3. Declutter Your Bathroom Cabinets

Go through your bathroom cabinets and throw away all the expired medication, old cosmetics, broken mugs, brushes, and other things that have been piling up on you. Be sure to clean your bathroom as well. Nothing is more tempting than a clean and fresh bathroom.

4. Tidy Up The Attic

Most of the time, the attic is used to store things that you don't use but are too good to throw away. Tend to every part of your attic and throw away all the junk that has not been used in a year or more. It is time for you to go through your attic, clean it out, and make it a suitable living space for anyone who comes to visit.

5. Empty The Closets

Sort out the clothes into categories of things you need to keep and items that are not necessary to keep with you. Donate the clothes that you no longer use or items that have been in use for a long time. After a good cleaning, you can organize the items in the closet to make it easier to find things that you need.

6. Declutter The Kids Room

Keep the room of your kids tidy. Declutter their stuff, dump out their toys and clothes, and organize everything so that it will be easy for them to find. You can sell some of the toys they no longer use, like their barbie dolls or transformers g1 toys. You will keep their rooms clean and make some money out of it.

7. Donate What You Don't Need

See if you can donate the old and unused items in your house. You will be surprised to see how much you have accumulated over the years. Don't just pile everything up in the attic or basement and expect it to disappear. Sort through everything and make use of what you can.

8. Declutter Your Garage

It is time to clean out your garage. You will also be surprised to see what has been neglected for years on end. Clean out your junk drawer, toss anything that you have not used in a long time, and take care of any mechanical issues in the garage. It would be best to sort out all the things so you will know what to discard and what to keep in your garage.

9. Freshen Up Your Fridge

Clear out the refrigerator of all expired items and uneaten food. Throw away any old food that has been sitting in your fridge for a long time. It will make it easier for you to organize what is left in your fridge and keep everything fresh.

10. Clean Your Cleaning Supplies

It may sound strange, but your cleaning supply can accumulate to a lot of stuff and can be a source of clutter if you don't clean it at least three times a year. Clean the storage room in your basement, and clean out the kitchen cupboards. It will make it easy to organize your new and fresh cleaning supplies.
