Simple, room-by-room guides to clear space without turning your weekend into a massive project.
Decluttering is the small habit of choosing what stays, what goes, and what needs a better home. Done well, it reduces visual noise and makes routines easier, because you can find what you already own.
Our approach is practical: pick one surface or one drawer, set a 15‑minute timer, and sort into Keep, Donate, Recycle, and Bin. As you reset your space, you’ll also notice a money win: fewer “I can’t find it” re-buys. That’s where 118M8 fits in. When you’re tempted to replace something, we help you pause and see the cost in hours.
