Don’t let summer clutter spill over into fall. School is starting the corner so we're be swapping out flip flops and bathing suits for backpacks and cleats.

Here’s 3 of our tried and true tips to keep the clutter to a minimum as the seasons change.

1) Did you know sunscreen expires? Check the dates before you store 5 half used tubes of sunscreen. You’re thinking you’re ahead of the game but actually they’ll expire over the winter. Save one or two for soccer season and toss or pass on the rest. Check your bug spray while you’re at it too.

2) Pick a winter storage space for the swim stuff. Gather your flip flops, beach towels, sand toys and bathing suits to store in a tote. Find a spot in your home that’s out of the way but easy to find if anything is needed before next summer. You’ll thank yourself when you aren’t randomly finding googles and single flip flops at the bottom of bags as you pack for lacrosse practice.

3) Find it before you need it. Those 40 degree mornings creep up on all of us. Make sure you know where everyone’s heavier jackets are. Don’t forget to check on sizes for your little ones who are growing like weeds. And if you really want to stay on top of your season swap, set a reminder for October to find your families snow gear.

Get these things checked off your to-do list and you’ll be ahead of the game come September.

But before you get started, send this to the friend you’ve been hanging out with all summer. She’ll love these tips too!

From our inbox this week:
a set of siblings is getting ready to put their parent’s home of 50 years on the market. Mom and Dad’s new space is MUCH smaller than the condo they’re moving into. They’re feeling overwhelmed about where to start, where to donate and dispose of the things they aren’t keeping.

Transitions are never easy.
Preparing a loved one’s house for sale is an emotional process.
It’s more than just a move: they might not be on board with the change, even if it is for the best. This brings up many emotions to navigate in addition to the physical items that are being sorted through. It’s not just stuff. It’s memories. That often means deciding what to keep and what to part with on behalf of someone else. Not to mention thinking about what will fit in their much smaller, new space.

A LOT needs to go.

Since this is a highly personal time, we know many families chose to complete this task on their own. This is one of the times when our Decluttering Guide is the perfect resource. The steps laid out in the guide will help you along on your downsizing project. They will give you a direction and strategy to follow.

Inside the guide you’ll find the five most effective ways to let things go. Along with our proven method to help you decide what to keep and what to release.

Packing for college can be stressful for both your teen and for you, the parents. The emotions involved can make the process challenging.

By creating lists and prioritizing, an organizer can help make sure that your college student has what they need and takes into account what types of clothing, bedding and comfort items they will want.

At Organizing Boston we have packed cars with nervous parents, parallel parked the U-Haul on those winding city streets and climbed countless flights of dorm stairs to support parents and teens through the college move-in experience.

Has your living room been taken over with your teen’s dorm room packing?

The boxes are piling up and the list keeps growing. You’re not sure what they need and what’s better to leave behind. You want them to have everything they need. They’re going out on their own for the first time. It’s overwhelming for both of you.

They’re leaving home and you’re watching them go, wondering how you’re going to take care of them from afar.

Let us do the heavy lifting! We will get your student’s space set up for a successful start to the semester. You can prioritize spending time with them on campus and getting them settled. This is a great option if you are coming from out of state!

You’ll have time to focus on helping your freshman feel comfortable in a new city and won’t have to worry about the logistics of getting their belongings up all those flights of stairs to their new dorm.

DM us COLLEGE to grab your spot!

Meet Bri, one of our Professional Organizers! She transformed a small spot by her front door into a powerhouse of organization.

With just one piece of furniture, she created:
▪️Shoe storage to keep entryway clutter in check
▪️A spot for her dog's leashes so they’re always ready for a walk
▪️A place for outdoor essentials so nothing gets lost in the shuffle

A well-organized entryway makes coming and going so much easier. What’s one must-have item you keep by your door? Let us know in the comments!

Your new home is a blank slate just waiting for your personal touch. But where to begin?

Here’s 3 strategies from a Professional Organizer that will make the move-in day less overwhelming.

1) Prioritize progress over perfection: transitions naturally create disruption. This can lead to your house feeling messy and disrupted routines will make you feel out of sorts. Focus on the small wins: one more box unpacked, one more closet organized. This discomfort is temporary and will make way for smoother days ahead
2) Keep your most used items front and center: unbox those essentials. A few dishes for breakfast, bedding and toiletries. These items are your first stop.
3) Call in backup where it makes sense for your family. You don’t have to do it all. Lean on your support system so you have extra hands to watch the kids, help open boxes or watch the dog.

And when all else fails, reach out to the professionals. Organizing Boston has 25+ years of taking the stress out of moving. We are able to support you every step of the way from packing to setting up your new home.

A successful move-in day starts before a single box makes it to the car. We shared our tried and true packing tips on our blog and wanted to share them here too.

First things first, start with a master packing list.

From the master list create categories for the following zones: sleep, study, storage, and hygiene. This way things like bedding and pjs (sleep) are accounted for together but separate from shower caddy and toiletries (hygiene).

Next take those zone lists and use that as your packing structure. This will streamline unpacking. While you’re at it, color code each zone with painter’s tape or colored marker as you label.

Lastly, create a “first night essentials” bag similar to if you were going on a one night trip.
