66 things you should get rid of during the next cleaning

Clothes, shoes and accessories

1. Hopelessly spoiled things. Stained shirts, stretched T-shirts and moth-eaten sweaters have no place in your closet. Why keep something that you are unlikely to wear again?

2. Clothes that don't fit your size. The reason, I think, is understandable.

3. Old shoes. If she can be made divine, do it. Vapors that cannot be recovered are sent to the trash heap.

4. Shabby underwear. When the bra is no longer able to support the breast properly, it is time to replace it with a new one. It's embarrassing to talk about torn panties - go to their trash can, that's all.

5. Stockings and tights with puffs or holes. Yes, yes, they can still be sewn up and put on under jeans or trousers. Either sew it up at last, or get rid of obviously useless things.

6. Leaky socks. Here is the same thing as in the previous paragraph: it is up to you to sew it up or throw it away, so long as the socks do not continue to lie idle.

7. Jewelry that has lost its former appearance. With jewelry, everything is clear: a broken lock, a torn chain, or a loose rhinestone are quite good reasons to throw away your bracelet or necklace. Jewelry should not be scattered, it is better to give them to be repaired.

8. Old party dresses. Do you think the chances are good that you will someday wear the outfit you shone in at your high school prom? If the dress is in good condition, try selling it. If not - well, even with such things one must be able to say goodbye.

9. Shabby bags. And wallets there too. Agree, the chance that one day you decide to go out with a worn-out bag is zero.

10. Old swimwear and swimming trunks. Say goodbye without regret to all the stretched and faded specimens.

11. Spare buttons for clothes you no longer wear. After all, what will you do with a set of completely different buttons?

Cosmetics and personal care

12. Old cosmetics. First, since you haven’t used it before, it’s unlikely that these eyeshadows, lip gloss, or foundation will ever come in handy. Secondly, cosmetics have a shelf life. When it comes to an end, it's time to say goodbye to the product.

13. Dried nail polish. Even if you dilute it with a special liquid, it still cannot be compared with a fresh one. Throw it away without agony.

14. Samples of toilet water. Why save them if you don't like the scent?

15. Samples of cosmetics. Either use it, or throw it away, there is no third option.

16. Old toiletries. A bald toothbrush and a cracked soap dish are not something that should be carefully preserved for many years.

17. Stretched hair ties. Here is good news for connoisseurs of rubber bands-telephone wires: bathe the rubber bands in boiling water, they will be as good as new.

18. Hairpins-invisible. Shake the box with cosmetics or the box where you store the jewelry, you will surely find several hairpins there. Since you do not use them, then there is no point in storing such.

19. Almost out of stock cosmetics and household chemicals. There is a little bit of money left on the bottom, it seems it's time to throw it out, but the toad is strangling. Give the toad a decent fight and send almost empty bottles and jars to the trash can.

Food and kitchen utensils

20. Spoiled food. Will you eat them? So no one will, so feel free to send the old-timers of your refrigerator to the trash can.

21. Old spices and seasonings. Like other products, they have an expiration date. When it comes to an end, it's time for the spices to leave your kitchen cabinet.

22. Unnecessary circles. Throw away those that are cracked and chipped, and take the whole ones that you for some reason do not use to work. There they will definitely come in handy.

23. Old scouring pads. By the way, they should be changed regularly, and this should be done before the sponge starts to smell.

24. Pots and pans with scratched non-stick coating. What's the point of this coating, when only one name remains from it?

25. Empty cans and jars. Why store them at all is unclear. Apparently, in the hope that someday all this will come in handy. Let's be honest, did it come in handy at least once? If not, goodbye, jars!

26. Kitchen utensils you don't use. Give absolutely new to friends, throw out the used one.

27. Food containers you don't use. And at the same time those that have lost their former appearance - the lid is cracked, for example.

28. Assorted dishes. Once upon a time there was a couple of tea, then the cup broke, and the saucer survived - or vice versa. It seems okay, but using such dishes is not very pleasant. So it's time to send her to rest.

29. Broken kitchen utensils. And again: you can use them, but not very pleasant. So why store it?

Housing

unnecessary things: everything for the house

30. Old towels with stains or holes. These are downright unpleasant to dry off, so throw them away without hesitation.

31. Well-worn bedding. If it just faded, it’s all right, but torn sheets and duvet covers are a direct road to the landfill.

32. Shabby rugs from the bathroom and hallway. Their life was not easy anyway, why prolong the suffering?

33. Old pillows. They are still not as plump and soft as they used to be.

34. Extra hangers. Leave as much as needed to hang your clothes and the rest in the trash.

35. Unnecessary flower vases. Transfer, sell or dispose of them in any other way.

36. Trinkets. The figurine of a pig, presented to you on the occasion of the coming of the year of this animal, is appropriate once every 12 years. Let the pig free, do not torture. Travel souvenirs and fridge magnets will be a great company for her.

37. Christmas decorations, which are not encouraging. A garland where several bulbs are off, a glass ball that instead of a factory fixture is held on a cleverly curved wire - do not turn the tree into an exhibition of junk.

38. Broken electronics and home appliances. If you still haven't fixed it, then you don't really need it.

39. Spare parts for furniture. Collect all those little pieces and screws that seem to multiply by fission and put them in the trash can.

Waste paper

40. Old checks and bills. Once the warranty period has expired, it means that it makes no sense to save the check. But utility bills should be kept for at least three years.

41. School and university textbooks. You are unlikely to need them. Give them to the library, so there will be at least some benefit from the books. And you can throw out the notes with a clear conscience.

42. Cards and invitations to weddings. If they are dear to you as a memory, leave them, but there is no point in keeping a stack of postcards with duty wishes for happiness and health.

43. Newspapers and magazines. Including those that you wrote out at school for foreign language lessons. You never know, suddenly you still keep them.

44. Discount cards for stores you don't go to. It is logical: if you don’t go, you don’t use cards either.

45. Discount coupons that have expired. They won't give you a discount anyway.

46. Junk from the mailbox. Wonderful product catalogs, discount flyers from your nearest store, and the like should be kept where it belongs: in the trash can.

47. Instructions for assembling furniture. It is unlikely that you regularly disassemble and reassemble a wardrobe or chest of drawers.

48. Guides. Why save up paper brochures when you can use electronic versions of guides?

49. Children's drawings. Whether it's your creations or your children's drawings, it's hard to part with it. Pull yourself together and leave only those that you like the most.

50. Duplicate photographs. In case you do not trust cloud storage and prefer to store printed images in photo albums. And with the clouds you are in vain, they are much more convenient.

51. Old diaries. Since they lie dead weight with you, throw them out already - and that's the end of it.

Various little things

52. Boxes from household appliances. The same ones that are kept by thrifty citizens on cabinets. When the warranty period ends, the boxes should be sent to the trash can.

53. Expired medicines. It is unlikely that any comments are needed here.

54. Old mobile phones. Is your nostalgia for the bygone days so strong to still keep devices that are unlikely to ever turn on?

55. Unnecessary smartphone accessories. Sooner or later, you still have to get rid of them, so why put off until later?

56. Dried flowers. Throw away sentimentality and throw away those dustbags.

57. Old stationery. Stickers, dry markers and pens, folders for papers, and so on.

58. The wires are not known from what. Everything is simple here: if you know exactly what this cable is for, and at least sometimes use it for its intended purpose, let it live. The rest should disappear from your home.

59. Old CDs and DVDs. Music that you no longer listen to, computer programs that you will hardly ever use, movies that you have watched more than once … Why do you need all this?

60. Promotional souvenirs. Let's say they handed you a T-shirt with the logo of a milk producer flaunting all over your chest. Will you wear it? No, really?

61. Gifts that you do not use. Or those that you just don't like. Give them to people who will appreciate the present.

62. Used batteries. Hand them over for recycling, for sure there is a collection point for batteries and accumulators in your city.

63. Toys for animals. Of course, those to which your pet is indifferent. It is unlikely that he will ever change his mind and decide that a mouse on wheels or a squeaking rubber chicken is his life's dream.

64. Board games lacking in detail. You can't really play them.

65. Crumpled bows and ribbons for gift wrapping. Since they have lost their former appearance, then it is not worth decorating a gift with them.

66. Small coins. However, you can not throw them away, but put them in a piggy bank. You will get a decent amount - exchange it at the bank.
