So … you think you are the only one in the street with a house full of clutter and hoarding.
Do you think you need some extreme cleaning?.
You visit Julia’s house and it is clean, white, pristine, everything in its place, no extreme clutter, damn it, even the rubbish bins are hidden, the fridge is all in order and there is a guest towel and flannel in the bathroom.
Your House Is Normal
Don’t panic … you are not alone. Your house is actually quite normal.
You know you just need to put in a couple of good days to get it back in order.
You can try one room at a time maybe.
Who has time, who can be bothered. Working full time my little house can get trashy very quickly.
Mental and Physical Health
Someone dear to me used to get his shed in such a pickle you couldn’t walk through the door.
He could just see clutter city, I would unload it and as soon as it was started he could see the end and help me finish it.
Looking at the problem seemed insurmountable to him, he could not work out how to get to the end result.
There are also other factors to consider such as physical health and mental health.
Not all of us are equipped with body and mind to keep things in order, this can be spasmodic or long term.
The Covid Delivery Effect
One thing that Covid has done to the Australian household is get them using internet shopping and internet food delivery in record numbers.
Where do all the bags go that stuff comes in, so many Uber delivery bags filled with McDonalds bags filled with empty wrappers. And so it goes.
We order so much online now. Huge amounts of home deliveries have caused a clutter epidemic.
Clutter Is Quite Normal
There is even a Clutter Scale we work with.
I use it when we are completing extreme cleaning it helps manage quoting.
We look for?
- Depth
- Compactness
- Odor
- Time frame for build up
You will notice in the Clutter Scale the first few pictures look quite normal, some people would say “the place is a bit of a mess”.
We have included a couple of pictures of absolutely normal clutter jobs.
Our beautiful clients of ours needed help, one particularly mentioned wanting the dignity of living in a clean home again.
