ADMIN: Spring Cleaning Week 2 Living and Family Rooms     

Posted by: "TacomaAreaFreecycle-owner@yahoogroups.com" TacomaAreaFreecycle-owner@yahoogroups.com

Mon Mar 8, 2010 5:01 pm (PST)



As we continue the Month long Spring Cleaning Challenge, we come to week 2:
Living and Family Rooms

This week's challenge - Look for surfaces you can clear. Try the OHIO method and the 10 Second Rule to move that stuff on out.

OHIO - Only Handle It Once. If it's in your hands it goes to its final destination, not to an intermediate pile.

10 Second Test - Once an object is in your hands you have 10 seconds to answer the following:

1. When was the last time you used it? Can't remember... get rid of it.
2. Have you used it since the last time you gave it the 10 second test? If not, it's time it went.
3. Does its value justify the space it takes up? Nope - then get rid of it.
4. Will you have a use for it in the next month? Again, if not, it needs to go.
5. Why is it here? or What the heck is it? Don't know? It goes.

No matter how many questions, if you can't decide within 10 seconds if the object should stay, it's an automatic purge.

And not just Table tops, think floor space. Maybe you should just get rid of that old chair instead of moving it? There's probably a Freecycle member who'll actually remove it for you. Time to replace that area rug? What can you find to offer?

There are members waiting in the wings to pick up your stuff. Let us have it... we can take it.

Post your living room and family room offers to Tacoma Area Freecycle!

Graco convertible crib, goes from crib to toddler bed. It had a recall on it a few years ago. We double-checked the crib and it was fine. Has the crib mattress, although I think there is one small tear in it. My son took only the occasional nap in the crib, so it was very lightly used!

Thanks!
