Deep cleaning is a great opportunity not only to dust off the shelves but also to re-evaluate what we live surrounded by. Tidying up your surroundings helps you feel calmer, more productive, and even improves your overall well-being. However, it’s important to have a clear plan in place to achieve lasting results. Effective tidying up is not just about brooms and rubbish bags, it’s a process that involves sorting, making choices, and forming new habits. In these situations, item storage is particularly useful for freeing up space without having to discard important items that are not currently in use.
Preparation Phase: Set a Goal
If the deep cleaning is to be more than a short-term burst of enthusiasm but also an effective change, it’s important to set the goal in advance. What do you want to achieve? More free space? Visual peace? A clearer arrangement of objects?
The tidying process is more effective when the whole family is involved – it’s beneficial to agree on common rules and responsibilities. It’s also recommended to draw up a simple, realistic action plan. For example, dedicate one day to just one room or even one cupboard – overwork is often the main reason why deep cleaning is left incomplete.
Separation and Sorting: What to Keep, What to Throw Away
This is the most important stage – it determines how long your efforts will remain visible. One tried and tested method is to evaluate each item by asking: Do I need this item right now? Does it give me value, joy, or is it just taking up space?
Divide objects into three groups:
- needed and used,
- maybe needed, but not now,
- no longer needed (can be donated, recycled or thrown away).
For the second group, item storage becomes the ideal solution. Items such as seasonal clothing, sports equipment, or less frequently used furniture can be safely stored in a storage unit and returned to the home when needed.
Keeping Things Tidy: A Place for Every Item
Every item in your home should have a designated place to go, so that clutter doesn’t return after a few weeks. This is especially important in the kitchen, bathroom or children’s room, where the number of items can grow quickly. Use boxes, a labelling system, and transparent bins – these help you to find things quickly and avoid chaos. If there are still too many items, it’s worth evaluating whether they all need to stay in the house. Storage helps you keep things tidy for longer – SPACE24 storage can become an extension of your home.

Our home environment has a big impact on our well-being. Clutter is often stressful, distracting, and makes it hard to relax. By contrast, a clean, uncluttered space makes it easier to concentrate, encourages creativity and provides psychological relief.
