Basements can be a great space for entertaining, storage, and family fun, but it can become a headache if your basement is full of clutter and is disorganized. Decluttering your basement is important if you truly want to get the most from your space.

Here are some decluttering tips that can help you transform your basement into a much more inviting area of your home.

Sufficient shelf space can be a life saver. Make sure the shelving is easily accessible and very secure. Most hardware and home improvement stores have shelving that would work well in the average basement.

There are so many options for crates and bins that are stackable and accessible. They create great hiding places for things you want to store and organize, but prefer they are out of view for the benefit of better aesthetics.

Peg boards are ideal for storing tools and other small items that are relatively light. They take up minimal space, but allow you to store a significant number of items neatly.

One of the biggest challenges to decluttering is the desire to keep too much. Parting ways with old clothing, furniture, and knick-knacks can open up your space so much. Find a great local nonprofit and donate those old items that you and your family no longer use or need.

Sometimes you simply have more items in your basement than you have the the space for. Renting a climate-controlled self storage unit can give you the extra space you need, especially for items that are important to you but that you do not use often.
