Packing and moving unnecessary clutter you accumulated over the years only to throw it away once you get to your new place doesn’t make sense. Add to that equation the cost of a moving company, and it will be clear that it’s time to declutter!
And think about it — moving to an entirely new place should give you a fresh start. Maybe you also want to add a sprinkle of fresh decor. Holding onto old items you haven’t used for ages doesn’t do you any good. Plus, decluttering will also bring you down memory lane before leaping into a big transition period.
