The holidays are just around the corner. You’ve got decorations ready, gifts to wrap, and maybe even family or friends coming to stay. But before the fun begins, there’s one task you might be dreading: decluttering.
Trust us it’s worth doing now. Clearing out the clutter not only makes your home feel more spacious and welcoming, it also gives you peace of mind so you can enjoy the season without stress. Whether you’re prepping the guest room or trying to make space for your kids’ new mountain of toys, a little holiday decluttering goes a long way.
Let’s break it down, room by room, with helpful tips and a little advice from your local junk removal pros at Quick Help Junk Removal.
Why Decluttering Before the Holidays Is a Game-Changer
Create a Welcoming Space for Guests
Having friends or family over? You don’t want them dodging piles of laundry or stepping around storage boxes just to get to the bathroom. Decluttering helps make guest rooms, hallways, and bathrooms functional again. Fresh sheets and a clutter-free room = instant five-star guest experience.
Make Room for New Gifts (and Old Traditions)
Between gift exchanges, holiday shopping, and surprise presents, your home is about to get fuller. Now’s the perfect time to go through toys, clothes, gadgets, and decorations and let go of what you no longer use. That way, when new gifts arrive, there’s already space waiting.
Less Clutter = Less Stress
Let’s be honest: clutter is overwhelming. And during the holidays, you’ve already got enough on your plate. Creating a clean, open space makes it easier to decorate, entertain, and relax. No more rushing to clean when guests drop by.
Where to Start: Holiday Decluttering Room-by-Room
The Entryway & Living Room
Sort shoes and coats you no longer wear.
Clear out that pile of mail, keys, or random clutter that collects by the door.
Rearrange furniture to improve flow especially if you’re putting up a Christmas tree or menorah display.
Guest Bedroom (or Wherever They’re Sleeping)
Declutter nightstands, closets, and drawers.
Toss or donate old bedding and unused furniture.
Create open space for your guests’ belongings don’t make them live out of a suitcase in the hallway.
The Kitchen and Pantry
Toss expired or unused food items.
Donate excess canned goods to a local food bank.
Reorganize your cabinets to make holiday cooking a breeze.
Kids’ Rooms and Play Areas
Broken toys? Toss ‘me.
Outgrown clothes? Donate them.
Involve your kids in the process it’s a great opportunity to teach generosity.
Garage, Basement, or Attic
These areas often hold forgotten decorations, damaged items, or boxes you haven’t opened in years.
Do a deep clean now so you don’t dread going down there for holiday bins.
Decluttering Tips to Make It Easy
Set a Timer and Keep It Simple
Don’t try to do the whole house in one go. Set a timer for 30 minutes and tackle one area at a time. Small wins add up fast.
Use the “One In, One Out” Rule
Expecting 10 new toys? That’s 10 old ones that can go. For every new gift, make space by removing one older item.
Label a Few Boxes: Keep, Donate, Trash
Sorting becomes way easier with a plan. Label bins or bags and move quickly through your stuff.
