There are presents to wrap, food to cook, homes to decorate, and so much shopping!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_2483033347-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A fire place in a living room decorated for fall.\" class=\"wp-image-1136 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_2483033347-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_2483033347-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_2483033347-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_2483033347-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_2483033347-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your home is a cluttered mess to start with, adding all the holiday activity can create chaos and confusion. By decluttering, however, you\u2019ll get several benefits before (and after) your guests arrive, including:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Less stress- When your home is organized your stress levels will drop (or at least not go up).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decorating will be easier- When there\u2019s no clutter in your way it\u2019s easier to put out all your holiday decorations&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More space for your new stuff- Unless you live with Scrooge, you\u2019ll likely be getting new stuff during the holidays. Having a decluttered home will give you the space to display and store them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More space for guests- Guests need some breathing room, and a decluttered house will provide that room.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A sense of pride- Inviting family and friends into your well-organized home will make you feel good!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-first-focus-on-high-traffic-spots-in-your-home\">1. First, Focus on High-Traffic Spots in Your Home&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">High-traffic spots are the spots in your home where guests gather and clutter can be annoying and bothersome. To avoid this, start with those areas first, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Entryway<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Put away unused coats, shoes, jackets, bags, and anything else that can get in the way.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If possible, add some hooks to hang all the jackets to come.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mudroom<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Store, toss, or donate anything you don\u2019t need, use, or want.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put away detergents, dryer sheets, baskets, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Kitchen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clear clutter from all countertops so you\u2019ll have more space for all the cooking to come<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go through dry goods and toss anything over its date.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remember to buy any spices and other ingredients that you\u2019ll use most<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Living Room<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clear off books, magazines, and anything else on coffee and end tables<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean and fluff sofa cushions. (Don\u2019t forget to clean underneath the cushions!)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Store everyday decor that will be replaced by holiday decor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean, dust, and vacuum everything<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Guest Room<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Organize closets and dressers to provide extra space for guests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean all linens, especially bed sheets and towels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean up any desks and sitting areas so guests can use them<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-have-plenty-of-containers-and-boxes-ready\">2. Have Plenty of Containers and Boxes Ready<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Decluttering is, essentially, putting away, throwing away, or giving away the stuff you don\u2019t need, want, or use. To do that with less stress, you\u2019ll need containers. They can be boxes, of course, but plastic bins and strong bags also work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a lot of stuff to store, boxes or plastic bins are best for one reason: they can easily be stacked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-before-you-decorate-un-decorate\">3. Before You Decorate, Un-Decorate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Holiday decorating, for many folks, is one of the most fun and joyful events of the year. Before you start, though, it\u2019s best to take down the decor that\u2019s already there, especially inside your home. That can include things like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pictures and paintings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fake plants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Items on a fireplace mantel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Throw pillows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decorative plates and sconces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Banners<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hanging items<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-prepare-a-space-for-your-guests\">4. Prepare a Space for Your Guests<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like you, any guests staying at your place over the holidays will need their space. It doesn\u2019t have to be expansive, but should be at least sufficient.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A guestroom is best, of course, but not all of us have that luxury. A space in the living room or den works, especially if you have a hide-a-bed. A few things you should have on hand include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fresh sheets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bath and hand towels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hand soap<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A small table or desk<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A lamp<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the way, if kids are coming, you can always declutter a large closet for them to use. That way they\u2019ll have some space, too, and a place to have some holiday fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-be-sure-to-have-enough-chairs\">5. Be Sure to Have Enough Chairs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last thing you want during a holiday gathering is that some guests have to stand, especially when eating. That\u2019s why making sure you have enough chairs is important.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These can be regular kitchen chairs, folding chairs, or even bean-bag chairs for the kids. Placing extra chairs in the living room and den is also a good idea. That way, when the after-dinner sleepiness starts, everyone has a place to relax and loosen their belts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-declutter-your-fridge-and-freezer-ahead-of-time\">6. Declutter Your Fridge and Freezer Ahead of Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One last thing about the holidays you need to prepare for is all that food! If you\u2019re like most families, several members will bring their \u201cspecial\u201d holiday dishes to your gathering.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_1822608470-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A young man cleaning out his fridge.\" class=\"wp-image-1135 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_1822608470-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_1822608470-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_1822608470-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_1822608470-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/shutterstock_1822608470-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knowing this, it\u2019s best to declutter your fridge and freezer before your guests start arriving. That almost-empty ketchup bottle? Toss it. Leftovers from the last month? In the garbage or the compost pile.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The more space you have before the festivities begin, the better. You\u2019ll find items faster, have room for large serving dishes, and have better access to all those delicious leftovers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"use-nsa-storage-for-your-holiday-prep\">Use NSA Storage for Your Holiday Prep<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No matter which holidays you celebrate, having an organized and decluttered home before they begin is extremely helpful.
