Spring cleaning is something that many of us look forward to in life. Keeping our houses spick and span is more than just a a once a year job though. If you struggle, you can download apps which will help you to get organised. The majority of us have our phones in our pockets all the time and they are a great helping hand to have. Let's have a look at the best decluttering apps for spring cleaning season and beyond!
Adobe Scan
Lots of us have drawers full of paperwork. Reams and reams of paper that we think we might need and hence don't want to get rid of. If this sounds like you, Adobe Scan is a great decluttering app to download to your phone. It creates a PDF of whatever document you scan. This means that the paperwork can quickly become digital so you can file it away on a hard drive, without having to invest in a brand new filing cabinet in the corner of the living room. The app automatically recognises text, making the process easier. You can even highlight and edit the PDF and share it via Adobe Acrobat Reader should you wish. If you come across a drawer full of business cards, scan these via the app and you can add the information to your contact list. Create some space by digitising your paperwork!
Clean My House
If you're wanting to have a proper scheduler on hand, Clean My House is the app for you. You can set it up to give you reminders of what you need to do from day to day, including but not limited to your cleaning schedule. It also allows you to add errands and other tasks, be it one offs or repeated ones. It's such an easy app to use and it will help you get on top of your chores.

Byebye: Declutter
Next up on our list of decluttering apps is the inventory and management system that is Byebye. It comes with it's own social network and allows you to compare your inventory with what other people have. It lets you figure out if you really need what you have. Create categories and add your items. You'll then be able to have a perfect picture of what you own, before deciding what to keep. Other members of the community will provide support on your decluttering journey and the app will also track your purchase patterns. Highlighting overspending habits and letting you know what you're not using certain things. It's very clever, maybe slightly too complicated for some people but well worth a look.
Facebook Marketplace
As part of the Facebook app, you can utilise Facebook Marketplace. This is a fee free platform that lets you list your unwanted items. You can decide on the price you want for these goods and people in the local area will collect and pay cash in hand if they want them. Just because you don't want it, doesn't mean it doesn't have value. One person's trash is another person's treasure, as the saying goes! You can make some money whilst you declutter!
