Have you recently lost a loved one? Maeve shares tips on how to handle an estate clean-out with Dumpsters.com in for their post, How to Clean Out a Loved One's Home:
Take a Tour and Process Everything
“There’s a lot of pressure when cleaning out a loved one’s home, and the instinct is just to get to work. Skipping the step of pressing pause and touring a space just to see what’s there before anything is permanently touched is important.” Maeve Richmond | Founder and Coach at Maeve's Method
Start Cleaning Things Out
“Do what is easiest for you first. A list can be very overwhelming for some people, so empower yourself and think ‘What is easiest for me to tackle? Or what can I handle first?’” Maeve Richmond | Founder and Coach at Maeve's Method
Divide Up the Work
“When someone passes and there’s a relative who hasn’t been involved, they often will want to feel connected. It’s important to hear them and say that you will keep an eye out for items that they might like to have. That’s always a good place to start.” Maeve Richmond | Founder and Coach at Maeve's Method
