9 Household organization tips
May 7, 2024 Category: News

Summer is just around the corner, and with it comes the excitement of vacation planning. However, before you can truly unwind and enjoy your time off, review these 9 home organization tips and to ensure all remains secure on the home front.

Home Organization Tips

1. Create a Pre-Departure Checklist Start with a comprehensive checklist. Prioritize tasks that need to be done weeks in advance, such as renewing passports or visas, and those that can wait until the day before you leave, like packing your bags and double-checking travel arrangements.

2. Secure Your Home Secure you’re home while you’re away. Consider installing timers on your lights to give the appearance that someone is home. Notify a trusted neighbor or consider hiring a home watch service like Annapolis Home Concierge to keep an eye on things.

3. Manage Your Mail and Deliveries Put your mail on hold through the USPS website or arrange to have it collected regularly. Do the same for any regular deliveries or subscriptions you might have.

4. Hire a Professional Organizer Hire a professional local organizer like Systems by Susie to declutter and organize your home. This not only helps you find peace of mind but also makes coming home to an organized space much more pleasant.

5. Prepare Your Devices Fully charge your electronic devices and back up important documents like your itinerary to the cloud so you can access them even if your devices run out of battery or get lost.

6. Packing Smart Start packing at least a week in advance. Use a packing list to keep track of essential items. A few pro packing tips to consider; roll your clothes to save space and pack a separate carry-on bag with essentials just in case your luggage gets lost.

7. Prep Your Fridge and Pantry Avoid coming home to a science experiment in your fridge. Clear out perishables that will go bad before you return. Turn off any appliances that won’t be in use while you’re away to save on energy bills.

8. Set Up Automated Systems Automate what you can in your home, such as setting programmable thermostats to an energy-efficient temperature or scheduling your sprinkler system to water your garden.

9. Leave Emergency Contact Information Provide a list of emergency contacts to a trusted neighbor or family member. Include your own info, hotel details, and contacts like your home watch service.

Conclusion

With these proactive steps, you’ll have an organized home and also able to relax and enjoy your summer vacation worry-free. Need help with this list? Contact Annapolis Home Concierge and let them handle the home front while you’re away.
