As you live longer, you will have more and more things in your home. Spaces are becoming more and more compact, and homes become more and more cluttered due to reduced storage functions. In order to improve the quality of life, it is highly recommended to "slim down" at home.
As a person who has come over, I would like to advise everyone that no matter how much space there is at home, it is best not to save these 6 things. Otherwise, no matter how good things are, they will eventually become garbage. These 6 things are found in almost every family.
1. All kinds of shopping bags
When you go out shopping, shopping, or grocery shopping, there are always a variety of shopping bags of goods. These bags are quite sturdy, and if they are not soiled or damaged, they can be left for later use.
However, there are not many things that need to be packed at home, which is a drop in the bucket compared to the frequency of shopping and grocery shopping. Over time, colorful plastic bags can be seen everywhere in the house, just like colorful flags fluttering.
At first, I was thinking of saving and protecting the environment, but I didn't expect that there were more and more bags, and my family became a "big plastic bag maker". Even if it is used as a garbage bag, it will not be used up.
Don't keep all the bags at home, throw away everything that is too thin, too small, and a little dirty. Also, prepare a box or large bag for plastic bags to avoid clutter at home.
Second, the drink bottle after drinking
Nowadays, many beverage bottles are designed with beautiful shapes. Sometimes when you see a beautiful drink bottle, you are reluctant to throw it away. I think it's okay to put it at home as a vase or to hold something.
As a result, the house is filled with all kinds of drink bottles. It looks really beautiful, but if you accidentally knock one down, it will be like dominoes, scattered in a large area, and you have to clean it up for a long time.
Moreover, it will only take up space, making the already small home even more stretched. It is also easy to fall dust, breeding bacteria and viruses, and it is troublesome to clean. Slowly, it became a sanitary blind spot in the home.
3. Old clothes that will not be worn again
When the seasons change, people buy more or less new clothes. When it comes to organizing your wardrobe, there will always be some old clothes that you are reluctant to throw away and will not wear again. I thought in my heart: maybe I want to wear it at some point, and it's not broken, it's a pity to throw it away.
These old clothes, even if they are kept in the closet for several years, are probably not touched again. If you put it in the wardrobe to occupy a place, it is easy to breed bacteria after a long time.
For these old clothes that will not be worn again, you should be ruthless to "break away" and make room for new clothes. If you feel that it is a pity to throw it away, you can give it away or donate it.
4. Expired food
Go to the supermarket and see biscuits, candy for discounts, or food that you have ordered for a full reduction, and buy it and stock it up. As a result, I got tired of eating some of them, or I hid them and forgot to eat them, so I put them in the corner to collect dust.
When we clean up, or pick it up and eat it on a whim, we find out that the food has expired.
It's all things that I paid for, and watching them turn into garbage, my intestines are about to turn green.
5. Magazines and newspapers
Although e-books are very popular now, there are still many people who prefer traditional paper books, such as magazines and newspapers. When I see a magazine or newspaper that I am interested in, I will buy it and take it home and read it again when I have time. After reading it, I just threw it aside, and I won't look at it again.
Looking at the mountains of magazines and newspapers, it is really very space-consuming at home, and it is easy to accumulate dust and breed bacteria. Adding to the trouble of cleaning is a headache to look at.
These magazines and newspapers can be packaged and sold at recycling stations. Emptying the area also avoids dust accumulation and bacterial growth.
6. Waste electronic products
Electronic products are updated too quickly, even if the old mobile phone and old computer have not been broken, it will become very stuck, which will seriously affect the use effect.
Old mobile phones, old computers and other electronic products that are no longer in use, because they are not damaged, are put in the drawer to eat dust. However, if the appliance is not used for a long time, it will slowly deteriorate and become garbage.
Instead of eating dust in a drawer, it is better to sell it as second-hand goods or give it away while it is still usable.
Summary at the end of the article
The above 6 household items will become garbage at home if they are not done well. We must learn to give up and "slim down" for our families from time to time. Let the home return to cleanliness and freshness, and improve the quality of life.
