Each of us is probably familiar with the problem of littering. Old clothes "for a summer residence", dishes with chips and cracks, magazines, discs and much more - these seemingly insignificant things can turn our apartment into a dump. In this article, we will talk about what is no longer a place in your home.
Spoiled clothes
A t-shirt with ketchup stains, ripped jeans, old worn clothes - all this should immediately go to the trash can. Some of the clothes can be distributed to those in need or used as cleaning rags.
Clothes are out of size
It is unlikely that you will again wear trousers that fit you back in your college days. Even if you ever get into them again. Quality clothing can be sold or donated. Throw away the rest without thinking.
Spoiled shoes
Send torn slippers to the landfill, as well as all shoes that need repair. Do not persuade yourself that one day you will hand over everything to be repaired - if you have not done this yet, then you no longer need your old shoes.
Shabby underwear
Wearing such underwear is not respecting yourself. It also has a shelf life, so as soon as the first holes and faded spots appear on it, that's it, it's expired.
Leaky tights and socks
If there are holes or arrows on the nylon tights, do not store them. Leave a few pairs of drawstring tights in case of cold weather - they can be worn under trousers. Leaky socks must be sewn up immediately or thrown away.
Decorations
Broken and torn jewelry, or jewelry that you haven't worn for over a year, needs to be disposed of.
All Soviet things
Old armchairs, on which the upholstery has fallen into disrepair, grandmother's chandelier, and, horror, a carpet on the wall. Long gone are the days when it, as the main value, had to be kept upright! Take all this to the dacha, or better even throw it out of sight.
Old party clothes
Wedding or prom dresses have been kept for decades. Of course, they are beautiful and expensive as a memory of the happy moments of life. But it is unlikely that after a few years you will find a reason to wear them again. Therefore, part with such things without regret. Try to sell them on the same avito, donate them, or just leave them at the entrance.
Buttons and scraps of fabric
They come with new clothes. The purpose of the piece of cloth is to test how the garment will react to cleaning agents. So if you don't plan on testing it, get rid of them immediately. Buttons can of course come in handy, but they need to be reviewed periodically - it may happen that the thing for which they were intended has long been thrown away.
Non-stick pans
As soon as the first scratch appears on them, such kitchen utensils need to be urgently disposed of - their further use is unsafe.
Pots and dishes
Pots that you haven't used for a long time only take up space in your kitchen - give, sell or donate them. Large ones are suitable for volunteer organizations that prepare food for the homeless.
Dishes with defects
Cracks, chips, broken handles - all these defects make the dishes unusable - throw them out of your home.
Linens
Review all kits for holes, old stains, or discoloration. Old laundry can be thrown away or used as cleaning rags.
Old towels
They also tend to wear out over time. Washed to holes, faded and tough, it is high time to send for scrap.
Electrical appliances
A coffee grinder that has not been removed from the closet for many years, a juicer that has never been turned on, as well as other faulty and unused equipment only take up space in your apartment. Get rid of it without regret - throw away the old equipment, sell the new one or donate it.
Cardboard packaging for electrical appliances
Throw it away when the device reaches its expiration date. This does not apply to boxes for mobile phones and laptops, as they can be sold in the future.
School textbooks and notebooks
It is unlikely that they will ever be useful to you, so return books to the library and throw your notebooks in the trash.
Postcards
Old unsigned cards, holiday invitations are an additional source of trash in the house.
Mail trash
Periodically throw away promotional printed materials, unnecessary receipts and other junk that you automatically drag home from your mailboxes. It only collects dust on your coffee table.
Cassette
Why do you need them if you don’t even have an audio or video recorder? Any music or movie has been available on the Internet for a long time.
What are these instructions about the sale of new equipment? What an urgent release from her? And a wedding dress, in general, for many is a memory forever.
I was pleased with the carpet, in Khrushchev they were hung not because of fashion, but as sound insulation. And getting rid of the carpet in the Khrushchev is stupid.
