4 Tips for Eco-Friendly Organizing:
Simplify your life while being environmentally responsible!
by Joshua Zerkel
----------------

Getting organized can be a fantastic way to simplify and
streamline your busy life. The process of getting organized
can involve weeding through (and discarding) some of the
belongings that have been keeping you from living how you
want to live, and finding other products that can help you
live in more comfortable, effective way. Tossing some
things out while also potentially getting new things may
seem to be at odds with eco-friendly living, but there ARE
ways to be eco-friendly while getting organized. Here are
four things to keep in mind:

1. Repurpose what you have.

Before getting rid of your stuff, see if you can use what
you have in new and different ways. Turn things on their
sides, take them to different rooms, and match things up in
unusual ways. For instance, an extra bowl from the kitchen
can make a great "key-catcher" by the front door. Checkbook
boxes transform into drawer dividers, and plastic trays
that fancy chocolate comes in are great for organizing
earrings.

Another example: I have a client who is a scrapbook artist.
We used transparent plastic bins to store her supplies,
which were functional but not very attractive. Instead of
buying new bins, we used some of her extra decorative paper
to line the bins and hide the contents. Look around your
space - what can use differently?

2. Buy eco-friendly products.

You may need to buy specialized organizing products, such
as desk accessories, drawer dividers, and other things that
will help you get and stay organized. Stores such as Good
Girl Goods (goodgirlgoods.com) and the Container Store
(containerstore.com) carry many products that are made from
recycled or natural materials. Consider products that will
make it easier for you to recycle, such as sorters that can
help you separate glass, paper, compost, etc.

3. Store the right way.

Store your items in a way that will best preserve them.
First, make sure you have the right containers. If you're
storing photos or documents, choose acid-free boxes, not
plastic bins. Keep clothes in a sealed container, not in a
suitcase. Second, be conscious of the location where things
are stored. Keep issues such as moisture, light, and
temperature fluctuations in mind. A damp garage isn't the
right spot for paper, and a bookshelf in direct sunlight
will quickly fade your precious photos.

4. Discard responsibly.

After weeding through your stuff, you'll probably be left
with lots of things that need to find new homes and some
that can be recycled. When working with clients, I usually
recommend that they get rid of things in this order: sell,
donate, and recycle. Items of value can be sold on eBay
(ebay.com), Craigslist (craigslist.org), at a garage sale,
or in your local paper. Call your favorite charities and
see what items they are accepting - frequently charities
will come and pick up your donations for you, saving you
time. Items that are left over after selling or donating
can often be given away via Freecycle (freecycle.org).
Finally, the items that have no value to you or others can
be responsibly recycled.

Simplifying and organizing your life while being
environmentally responsible is possible! When embarking on
your next organizing project, keep these four tips in mind.
You'll be able to feel good about taking steps toward
living the life you want in an eco-friendly way.
