Questions to Prepare for a Move or Downsize

When moving, you can understand your new space by asking all the right questions. It will become easier to make decisions about what to keep and what to donate! Your new space should represent you but also feel like a fresh start. Be sure to keep the following things in mind when moving: 

How many bedrooms will you have? 

If you currently have three bedrooms that act as your room, a guest room, and an office but your new space will only leave you with two bedrooms, you should consider what room you would like to downsize. If you would rather keep your office and not the guest bedroom, then it becomes the perfect opportunity to get rid of the bulky guest bedroom furniture that you’ll no longer need. Furniture and mattress removal just happens to be our specialty.

What is the square footage? 

Optimizing your space is important when moving. If your new space is smaller than your current one, it may benefit you to keep your shelving and storage for your books or knick-knacks. Additionally, you might want to consider swapping out your large sectional, 8 person dining room table, or other large furniture for smaller items that suit both you and your space better. 

Is there any built-in storage?

When looking at your next new space, be mindful of the storage that comes with it. If you have limited kitchen storage but a large bedroom closet, consider what types of items you’ll need to trim down. Storage will become a key factor in downsizing 

Do you have any extra space? 

Having a garage, shed, attic, or any additional space will play an important part when deciding what will go and what will stay. If you currently have a garage that you keep all your outdoor stuff in, but no garage in your new place, you might consider sifting through equipment to determine if you’ve used it recently or if you’ll use it soon in the future. 


Top 7 Downsizing & Decluttering Tips 

1. Create a timeline

A helpful way to stay on task and organized is to create a timeline of when you would like to be done and important milestones that may guide you on your way. Mark when you want certain areas of the house to be decluttered and when you would like the stuff you no longer need either donated or thrown away. For example, if you choose to downsize your closet in one month, here’s how you can set timely goals for each week.

Week 1:

    • Sort through all outside spaces (garage, shed, etc)
    • Try on all clothes and donate 25%
    • Create your 3 piles of keep, throw away and donate

Week 2:

    • Get rid of duplicates in kitchen (spatulas, ladles, etc)
    • Eliminate old and stained sheets, pillow cases, and expired products
    • Schedule an appointment with The Junkluggers to remove bulky items, donations, and furniture

Week 3:

    • Throw away or scan old paperwork, school projects, and other paper items
    • Pack items for new house

Week 4:

    • Removal of bulky items, donations, furniture
    • Moving day

2. What to keep, what to toss

If you’re having trouble looking through things and throwing them away, do the 6 and 3 rule. If you haven’t used the item in the last 6 months and won't use it in the next 3 months, discard it or donate it. This excludes seasonal things such as a lawnmower or winter jackets, unless you’re moving into a place that does not have a yard or winter! Have sorting boxes or piles that designate what will be donated, what will be thrown away, and then pack the rest of what you’re choosing to keep.

3. Go through expired products

Expired products in the bathroom, kitchen, or hallway closet will always take up unwanted space in your new home! Sort through lotions, cleaning products, spices, facial products, and other items. You must remember you cannot donate these products if they are expired or open, and it’s best to responsibly dispose of them.

4. Start in lesser-used places

Don’t forget about spaces that you don’t see or use every day! Your garage, attic, and storage shed can accumulate things quickly and be forgotten just as fast. If you have storage bins of sporting goods that haven’t been used in years, it’s time to donate.

Pro Tip: Momentos from old school projects might be hard to get rid of but a good rule of thumb to keep in mind is to only save one or two things from each collection or year.

5. Sort through furniture and large items

We all have that piece of furniture that is rarely used and takes up space. Is it an entryway table that collects old mail and paperwork? A hutch that holds nothing more than a vase? You may even consider getting rid of the guest bed that has only been used once or twice. Whatever it may be, finding the pieces of furniture that you don’t use or will no longer need is a great way to freshen your space and declutter your home.

6. Refresh your kitchen space

The kitchen can be one of the most difficult areas to declutter as you can almost always find a reason to keep something. However, this can also be a golden area to get rid of the most stuff. If you only use 2 pots but have 4 in your cabinet space, or have a bread pan sitting in the corner that has never been used, these are an example of items to donate. Think about what you use daily and what is rarely used.

7. Closet Declutter

Depending on who you are, your closet might be jam-packed with clothes, shoes, belts, and other accessories that have only been worn once or twice. When downsizing your closet think about the items of clothing and accessories that stand out to you. The 6 and 3 rule can also apply here. If you haven’t worn it in 6 months and don’t plan to wear it in the next 3 months (excluding weather-specific items) then it’s time to donate.


Downsizing Tips For Seniors

There will come a time in your life where, as you grow older, you may inevitably have to downsize for a myriad of reasons that may happen slowly or all at once. With The Junkluggers, you won’t have to lift a finger in disposing of unwanted items, hauling things off, or donating your possessions.

      • Start with small rooms and items

You will find it helpful to start in smaller areas of your home that hold fewer momentos attached to it such as the hallway closet or the office. Spaces like attics or garages that hold old projects, decorations, and other things can be difficult to sort through. 

      • Eliminate rooms you won’t have in your new home

If you find yourself moving into a one-bedroom home, getting rid of the excess belongings in the guest bedrooms and office will help you adjust quickly to your new space. Go through tools and landscaping items you may not need or won’t have storage for. If you can, visit where you will be living to help you visualize what you can and cannot keep. 

      • Preserve Your Collections

The hardest part about moving into a smaller space may be reducing years worth of collections and other hobby items. To downsize these things, pick out a few pieces that are your favorite and keep only a few from the entire collection. If you find that you will have to donate all of these items, take photos of them first and print them out. You can then place these in a photo album to display in your new home. 

      • Allow time for memory lane

Start early in your process of decluttering and downsizing. Getting rid of your possession is hard and you’ll likely be going through many different things that have memories attached. Allow yourself to experience memory lane and reminisce about those times. 


Advantages of Downsizing Your Home

Now that you’ve decluttered your home, you can sit back and relax! Cleaning will become easier with minimal things to dust and spray down. You’ll feel the weight off your shoulders of having to maintain a large home with many things to sort and keep track of. 

Allowing yourself to keep up with a lifestyle of minimal things that you may not need will help you refrain from buying excess things. Be mindful of your new space and enjoy the benefits of a decluttered and downsized home.

Hacks to organizing your home aren’t always straightforward and simple but the rewards to downsizing can make all the difference in your space. Remember that you aren’t alone in this process and Junkluggers is here to help. We’ll offer a stress-free experience to take away what you want to get rid of.

Managing Parkinson's Symptoms at Home

Managing Parkinsons Symptoms at HomeThis article is part of The Parkinsons Care Compass, an educational series from At Your Home Caregiving of Texas. Managing Parkinsons symptoms at home takes preparation, compassion, and the right support and we are honored to guide families every step of the way.Managing Parkinsons disease at home requires a careful balance of patience, knowledge, and proactive strategies. Parkinsons affects not only mobility but also speech, mood, memory, and overall daily living activities. As symptoms progress, the home environment and caregiving approach must evolve to meet new challenges and ensure that the individuals dignity, comfort, and independence are preserved.At Your Home Caregiving of Texas specializes in providing customized home caregiving solutions that empower families to manage Parkinsons symptoms effectively while preserving the quality of life for their loved ones.The Importance of a Symptom Management PlanParkinsons symptoms are highly individual no two people experience the disease in exactly the same way. Creating a personalized symptom management plan is essential to addressing the patients physical, cognitive, and emotional needs.A well-rounded plan typically addresses: Mobility and fall prevention Medication management Cognitive and emotional changes Speech and swallowing difficulties Nutrition and hydration Daily routines and activities for mental and physical engagement At Your Home Caregiving of Texas helps families design care plans that respond to their loved ones unique symptoms, preferences, and goals.Mobility Challenges and Fall PreventionMobility issues are among the most recognizable symptoms of Parkinsons disease. Slowed movements (bradykinesia), stiffness, and balance problems increase the risk of falls and injuries.Strategies for Safer Mobility: Home Modifications: Remove trip hazards (like loose rugs), install grab bars in bathrooms, and ensure adequate lighting throughout the home. Use of Assistive Devices: Canes, walkers, and specially designed furniture can aid in safe movement. Clear Walking Paths: Maintain wide, unobstructed paths through frequently used areas like bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens. Encouraging Movement Techniques: Techniques like "freezing" drills and cueing strategies (using rhythmic music or counting steps) can help when patients feel stuck or rigid. At Your Home Caregiving of Texas caregivers are trained in fall prevention and can assist clients safely with standing, walking, and transferring from beds or chairs.Medication Management at HomeStrict adherence to medication schedules is critical in Parkinsons care. Medications like levodopa/carbidopa must be taken precisely to control motor symptoms and prevent sudden worsening.Medication Management Tips: Use pill organizers clearly labelled with times of day. Set alarms or use medication reminder apps. Keep a written medication schedule visible for caregivers and family members. Monitor for side effects like dizziness, hallucinations, or sudden involuntary movements (dyskinesias). Our professional caregivers ensure that medication regimens are followed accurately, reducing the risk of complications and hospitalizations.Addressing Cognitive and Emotional ChangesCognitive changes such as memory loss, slowed thinking, and difficulty concentrating are common in Parkinsons, especially as the disease progresses. Emotional changes, including depression and anxiety, may also develop.Support Strategies: Cognitive Engagement: Activities like puzzles, reading, and conversation help keep the mind active. Routine and Structure: A consistent daily routine minimizes confusion and frustration. Patience and Understanding: Allow extra time for decision-making and avoid rushing tasks. Mental Health Support: Professional counselling and medication management can help address depression and anxiety. At Your Home Caregiving of Texas, we prioritize emotional support alongside physical care, creating a nurturing environment for both the patient and their family.Managing Speech and Swallowing DifficultiesSpeech difficulties (dysarthria) and swallowing problems (dysphagia) are common but manageable aspects of Parkinsons.Tips for Speech Challenges: Encourage slow, deliberate speech. Use voice exercises, sometimes under the guidance of a speech therapist. Practice reading aloud or singing to strengthen vocal muscles. Tips for Swallowing Challenges: Consult a speech-language pathologist for swallowing assessments. Offer smaller, more frequent meals. Use thickened liquids if needed to prevent choking. Monitor for signs of aspiration, such as coughing during meals. Our caregivers are trained to notice changes in speech and swallowing and can assist with appropriate interventions to maintain safety and nutrition.Nutrition, Hydration, and ExerciseProper nutrition and hydration are vital for maintaining strength, energy, and medication effectiveness. Constipation, a common non-motor symptom of Parkinsons, can often be alleviated through diet.Key Nutrition Strategies: Focus on fiber-rich foods (vegetables, fruits, whole grains). Maintain hydration offer water throughout the day. Time protein intake carefully, as large amounts of protein can interfere with medication absorption (consult with a physician or dietitian). Incorporate antioxidant-rich foods to support brain health. The Role of ExerciseExercise is one of the most powerful non-medication tools for managing Parkinsons symptoms. Regular movement improves: Balance and gait Flexibility and strength Mood and cognitive function Simple exercises like walking, gentle stretching, yoga, and chair exercises can make a significant difference. Specialized programs like Parkinsons-specific boxing or dance classes can also offer tremendous benefits.At Your Home Caregiving of Texas, our caregivers incorporate gentle movement and stretching routines into the daily care plan, promoting physical vitality and emotional well-being.Creating an Emotionally Supportive Home EnvironmentBeyond managing symptoms, creating a positive and emotionally supportive home environment is essential.Key Elements: Respect and Dignity: Involve the patient in decision-making whenever possible. Companionship: Regular conversation, laughter, and shared activities prevent isolation. Patience and Flexibility: Parkinsons symptoms can vary from day to day caregivers must adapt with grace and understanding. Empowerment: Focus on what the patient can do, not what they cant. Celebrating small victories boosts confidence. Families often find it overwhelming to balance these emotional needs with the physical demands of caregiving. Thats where trusted professional caregivers make a tremendous difference.How At Your Home Caregiving of Texas Supports In-Home Parkinsons CareOur specialized Parkinsons care services are designed to ease the burden on families while maximizing the comfort and independence of the individual living with the disease.Our Parkinsons Home Care Includes: Assistance with personal care, mobility, and safety Medication management and reminders Nutrition support and meal preparation Exercise encouragement and participation Cognitive stimulation activities Emotional support and companionship Home safety evaluations and fall prevention Coordination with therapists, physicians, and family members Every care plan is customized, compassionate, and flexible evolving as the patients needs change over time.Final ThoughtsManaging Parkinsons symptoms at home is both an art and a science.
