Decluttering paper piles is one of those times when sorting first makes sense. It’s a big task, but once you get through it, the rest will be easy peasy, so let’s get started.
A designated workspace can make all the difference in a large project. It helps keep you from continually moving throughout your house and getting distracted.
I prefer to use cardboard boxes and find that the boxes from printer paper work really well (and I can get as many as I want from work). You can use the shallow tops and deep bottoms of the boxes.
