Clutter can creep up fast, turning our homes from peaceful retreats into chaotic spaces that leave us feeling stressed and cramped. Everyone dreams of a home that feels open and inviting, but finding the time – and space – to make that transformation can feel impossible.
The good news? A quick refresh doesn’t have to mean getting rid of things you love. By using smart self-storage solutions, like the flexible and convenient options from Moor Room, you can instantly reclaim room in your home without parting with your essentials.
Here’s how a few simple steps and strategic storage can create the spacious, calming home you’ve been craving.
Tip 1: Focus on the Hot Zones
Kick clutter out of the kitchen and living room before it makes itself too cosy!
Start with the Living Room and Kitchen: These are the heart of the home, the spaces you and your guests use most, so clearing clutter here will create an immediate feeling of openness.
Use Sorting Bins for Fast Decisions: Separate items into ‘keep’, ‘store’ and ‘ditch’ to avoid clutter coming back. Need help in deciding which is which? Read more about the benefits of ditching it, or storing it.
Store Bulky or Rarely Used Items: Things like extra furniture, seasonal items, or memorabilia can be moved to a storage unit to instantly free up space.
Tip 2: From Closet Chaos to Calm and in Control
If your closet’s starting to look like a black hole, it’s time for a rescue mission.
Rotate Seasonal Clothes: Winter is done! So store those bulky winter clothes and other off-season garments to free up closet space and make current-season items easily accessible.
Garage Reboot: Holiday decorations can fill your garage up quite quickly. Move rarely used items like tools, sports gear and decorations into a Moor Room storage unit to reclaim this valuable space. Need a hand to figure out the perfect unit size? Try our Space Calculator!
Use It for What It’s Meant For: Get back that car space or turn your garage into a home gym or workshop by offloading the overflow.
Tip 3: Create a Secret “Stash Spot”
Every home could use a secret ‘clutter treasure chest’ – perfect for keeping things out of sight and out of mind!
Your Secret Storage Nook: Choose a hidden corner or closet as your mini storage station, perfect for things you need nearby but out of sight.
Use Storage Containers Wisely: Stackable bins and organisers make it easy to keep your stash spot neat without the mess. Out of boxes or bubble wrap? Head to the Moor Store and make organising your space even easier.
The Self-Storage Solution: Send larger items like keepsakes or oversized decor to us at any of our five locations, so you can enjoy all the perks of a tidy, cosy home.
