One day many years ago, I rolled up into carpool with a car that looked like a trash heap. When the teacher opened the door to let my kids out, their stuff was falling out of the car. It was so embarrassing. I declared that would never happen again. Ever. I took charge and decluttered the car. We hope that you enjoy these tips on How to Declutter Your Car.
Now that the holidays have come and gone, it is time to clean up all of the clutter that we have gathered during the past couple of busy months. Not just the clutter in your home though. Your vehicle can easily absorb lots of clutter, when you have a lot on your plate. The leftover fast food wrappers, empty beverage cups, and used tissues often times end up scattered throughout your entire car. Here are some great tips to help you get your car in shape.
Obviously, not everything that you will clear from your car is trash. You will probably find coins in the cup holders and on the floor, clothes that you have been meaning to take in. You might even discover some books that you forgot were in the pouch behind your seat. Who knows what else you will come across? Be sure that you have something to put all of your belongings in, so that you can easily take everything inside. In fact, this portable, collapsible trunk organizer is a life saver and never leaves my car. Anything that doesn't have a place, goes in there until I remove it from the car. Keeps everything so much more organized.
When decluttering or cleaning your car, the focus is generally on things that you can see. The dashboard, the seats, and the floor are the first spots you will find yourself clearing off. But just because you cannot see it, does not mean it is not there, or that it is not clutter. Think about your glovebox, or center console, for examples. How often do you throw receipts, tissues, or fast food napkins in either place?
When it comes to decluttering your vehicle, something you can do to keep it sweet and simple is keeping a garbage bag or even a grocery bag (great idea for recycling) in your car. Pull out the grocery bag and throw away all your trash. It’s amazing how quickly trash can accumulate in a vehicle. This is a quick and easy way to declutter your vehicle. In fact, I keep 5-6 grocery bags in my car at all times.
Getting rid of the clutter in your vehicle will make you feel better. There is nothing worse than trying to work around the junk in your vehicle. Do the decluttering thing at least once a week. We hope that you are inspired by these tips on How to Declutter Your Car.

Great tips! Clutter and mess give me major anxiety and I hate it. I believe, every time you leave the car, grab the trash that’s in it. Clean space, clean mind. If that makes any sense, lol!
Oh man, my car is scary right now. I really need to clean it out. I need to get an organizer for sure. Plus a trash bag.
I like a nice clean car but sadly being the family car, it is usually a big mess. I like the idea of the segmented tote storage box!

The trunk crate looks awesome. My friend hung a shoe rack on in the back of her car and it had all the pockets she needed to organize.
Would love to have one of those in my truck. I am always searching for things that rolled away or fell somewhere.
My kids make the hands-down worst messes in the cars. From them trying to draw on my foggy windows, to them leaving trash all over.
I need one of those. That would be so helpful. My trunk seems to always be a mess.
I need to get some of these things. Our car is a complete mess right now.
Decluttering the car is one chore I truly dread but the results are always worth it. I need to be better about keeping a trash bag handy!
Did you write this for me?? You should see what my car looks like right now!
The inside of my car is always a mess! My wife complains about that all the time to me. This would come in handy!
This is such a great idea to use for the car. I hate when everything flies everywhere in the back seat. Great way to keep it all organized.
I hate when our car gets messy. I thought I was the only one who kept a car-sized garbage can in the car. haha I do really need a truck organizer though, especially one that holds groceries.
OMG, I so need this in my life. That trunk basket would be perfect, with kids, there is so much clutter! Thanks for the tips too!
