Downsizing: 10 Tips to DECLUTTER Your HOME

Welcome to Move to Chattanooga! I’m Robert C. Baker with Zach Taylor Chattanooga! In this video, we’re diving into one of the biggest challenges many homeowners face: decluttering in preparation for downsizing.
If you’ve lived in your home for years—maybe even decades—you’ve probably accumulated a lot of things. And when it’s time to downsize, sorting through it all can feel like an overwhelming task.
Leave me a comment below if you think that you’ve accumulated too much stuff!
But here’s the thing: while downsizing might seem intimidating, it can also be incredibly freeing. Today, I’ll be walking you through 10 clear, practical steps to help you declutter and prepare for a smaller, more manageable space.
Whether you’re moving to a smaller home, simplifying your lifestyle, or just getting ready for a fresh start, these tips will make the process easier and much more meaningful.
