Decluttering can have several benefits, including:

By removing unnecessary items from your living space, it can make it easier to find what you need and give you less stuff to store, so you can keep your home more organized.

Clutter can contribute to feelings of anxiety and depression. Decluttering can help improve your mood and overall well-being.

Select a room to use for your assessment. In this example, we’ll use a living room.

You will learn about using categorization. Make a decision about every item in that messy corner, then make your way around the room. Typical categories are: keep, donate, get rid of, curb side recycle (and maybe sell).

Alphabetical sorting: Items could be sorted alphabetically by name, making it easy to find specific items.

Categorical sorting: Items could be sorted by category, such as by type of item (clothing, electronics, etc.), by room or area of the house, or by frequency of use.

Custom sorting: Users could create their own sorting rules, such as sorting items by color, size, or personal preference.

Sorting by date: Users could sort items by the date they were acquired, used, or last accessed.

Priority sorting: Items could be sorted by priority, such as high-priority items that need to be easily accessible, or low-priority items that can be stored out of the way.

Sorting by frequency of use: Users could sort items by how frequently they are used, with the most frequently used items being stored in the most accessible locations.

Smart sorting: Sorting could be automated using machine learning algorithms that learn the user's preferences over time and suggest optimal sorting methods based on those preferences.
