Spring gets all the credit as the season for cleaning. After being cooped up for months, the ritual makes sense. But fall cleaning can be just as important as spring cleaning. Take some time to tidy your home and your finances so you can enter winter with a fresh space and fresh mind. Here are some tips to help guide your fall cleaning below.

Ditch the Clutter

Summer can be a busy time and even if you went through your home in the spring, you might have accumulated more things you don’t need. This can also be a good time to re-evaluate summer items that you didn’t use all summer long. If you plan to just store them for another year, it might be time to get rid of them.

It’s a good idea to evaluate what you have and separate them into categories. There are the items you want to keep, those you want to sell, those you want to give away or donate and those you want to throw away.

Try doing an exchange with friends if you are looking for new-to-you items to replace the ones you are getting rid of. You could host a garage sale if you have enough stuff and you are looking to make some money. There may even be less competition for buyers than in the spring.

You could also turn to online sales sites like eBay, Craigslist, Facebook and others. For the items you’ve designated to donate, or those that don’t sell, you can look to a local church or community center, the Salvation Army or Goodwill. It turns out your fall cleaning can even help you make a profit or receive tax breaks.
