From a broad perspective, getting (physically) organized is really about cleaning, re-organizing and donating and/or discarding.
Take your garage, for instance. You need to take everything out, clean the garage and organize everything onto shelves, into storage boxes or hanging from racks. Any non-essentials are either tossed or dropped off at a nonprofit.
It might sound exhausting but there are actually some pretty amazing resources in Thornton that can make this task—and others like it—much easier and more efficient!
For example, there are local organizers and handyman who can help you make the most of your space and determine which storage makes the most sense for your needs. There are also nonprofits that will pick up your donations right in front of your house! And don’t forget about the local retail shops that sell some amazing gadgets and gizmos to give you more space and less clutter, like ceiling-mounted storage racks, rotating carousel organizers for shoes and purses, and slat-wall panels with hooks and hanging bins!
Don’t let your resolution to get organized get off the rails before you even leave the station! The following Thornton businesses can help you get on track for Get Organized Month.
