3. One in, one out rule – When new toys, books, or clothes let them take place of something old, worn out, or broken to keep from over-stuffing your home.

4. Store items where they are used –聽When you keep things where they are used聽it is much easier for everyone in the family to put them away and avoid piles.

5. Everyone pitch in – Let every member of the family have a responsibility like wiping down the counter or loading the dishwasher. Getting the simple jobs down will keep the home cleaner which will help you avoid clutter.
