There is no better time to declutter your office space than now.
Your office needs to allow for creativity and productivity, but a messy or unorganised room can be detrimental to both. However, with a little bit of time and energy, your cluttered office can become an open and organised space for you to work, play video games or store important documents.
In our latest article, Premier Self Storage Burton has created a simple guide to organising your cluttered office space, including how you can properly store your large furniture items.
1. Separate the Space into Sections
Organising a cluttered office can feel like an overwhelming task, so break the space down into sections and take it one area at a time. If you find yourself part-organising your filing cabinet before drifting to move your computer desk (again), approaching the room in sections can also make it easier to track your progress and quickly see results.
2. Have Methods of Disposal at Hand
De-cluttering an office is guaranteed to create waste, and lots of it. Those bank statements from over a decade ago will take up valuable space in your filing cabinet, so make sure you have a paper shredder at hand to safely dispose of personal documents. We recommend buying enough black bin bags and recyclable bags, as well as using a paper shredder to clear the space efficiently.
3. Create Clear Pathways
Let’s be honest, it is going to look a lot worse before it gets better. Old documents strewn across the floor and piles of random cables can quickly demotivate you, and create a space that feels overwhelming. As you are working in sections to declutter your office space, make sure to always keep a clear path through the centre of the room – otherwise, you will be drowning in poly wallets and binders before lunchtime.
4. Invest in New Storage
This may sound obvious, but new storage can be vital for keeping your office organised long-term. From better cable management to larger filing cabinets, a few additions can prevent your space from becoming cluttered again after you invest time and energy into cleaning the room. Additionally, new storage can be a great motivator, so treat yourself to a couple of stylish, modern items.
5. Store Your Items with Premier Self Storage
A simple way to declutter your office is to remove the large furniture items first – but where will you store them while you put your photo albums into chronological order? Premier Self Storage offers short-term contracts and compact units, perfect for a room-worth of furniture. So, if you have a cluttered office that needs organising, make the task easier for yourself and remove the large furniture items that may get in your way.
