This one is really a no-brainer. Clear plastic will allow you to see inside the container more easily saving you precious time when quickly trying to retrieve an item from storage.

Tips:

• Label these containers! Even though they are see-through, it will speed up item retrieval.
• Buy containers that 'nest' together. Try our Guide to Plastic Storage Containers for more information. 

Maximize Use of Prime Real Estate

"This is defined by the space in between your knees and your shoulders" says Lisa Zaslow of Gotham Organizers. In other words, the easiest places to reach. Out of sight out of mind, so keep your most frequently used items in your prime real estate.

Tips:

• Think about what you reach for most often. Those go in your prime real estate storage spaces.
• "Out of sight, out of mind," reminds Zaslow. If you want something to remain part of your life, store it where you see it often.

Go Vertical

Most people think in terms of left to right, but don't discount that space above your head and at your feet. These are a great places to store out-of-season, holiday, or little-used and worn items.

Tips:

• Do invest in a sturdy step ladder to allow you to reach this area.
• Don't store anything too heavy up above--not boxes full of books or large appliances!
• Don't store anything you use regularly above your eye-line. Remember: Out of sight equals out of mind.

Choose the Right Products

Triple measure your storage spaces before buying bins, trays or racks. There's nothing more frustrating than getting home and having to shove a container into a closet to make it fit. Storage products should fit your stuff, your stuff shouldn't have to fit whatever you buy on a whim. Plan ahead.

Tips:

• Carry a note card with the measurements of your closets in your wallet. (see more tips like this in Household Organizing Tips)
• Once again, try to use products that nest together. They will stack more easily.
• Make sure they are clear and labeled.

I always thought label makers were for the organization freaks amongst us, but now that I have my own, I'm slightly obsessed with mylabel maker. It's endlessly useful and gives home organization a very polished and professional look. Plus, it saves me from having to decipher my terrible handwriting!

Tip:

• Start with broad to begin ("socks"), then adjust to more narrow labels ("black socks") as you see fit. Read more on how to do this inOrganizing Principles: Keep it Simple.

How to Enjoy Cleaning Your Home

1. Forget that you have to complete a certain portion of housework in any amount of time. Remove all clocks from your work area!
2. Do not focus on getting a task done. Focus on your breathing and allow your mind to "drift". Hold on to no thoughts and allow any troubling or worrisome thoughts to pass though your mind - but do not give them any energy.
3. Continue to breathe in a relaxed manner and bend as if it is the first time you have bent, allowing your muscles to stretch and being fully aware of the physical sensation of stretching your body rather than moving in awkward positions to get the job done faster.
4. Begin to focus more on the work you are actually doing. Instead of dreading the tasks that lie ahead recall pleasant memories of loved ones in the room that you are cleaning. This will make your job so much more enjoyable while you are tidying up the messes made by others who live with you.
5. Place all items into different containers for different destinations, such as kids bedrooms. bathroom, kitchen, etc. Really look at the items you find and try to recall where it came from. If it was a gift say thanks in your mind to the person who gave it!
6. Begin to dust starting from the top and working your way down.
   • Keep feet flat on the floor reaching as high as you can without going on your toes. Your may gently move onto your toes if you cannot reach an area after you have stretched to your capacity while standing flat footed. Pretend that you are a small child stretching for the first time without straining. Move as if it is the first time you have moved, focusing on feeling fully alive. You should begin to awaken muscles that may have been strained in the past and are stiff. Continue to breathe in a relaxed manner and allow the air gently in through your nose and exhale slowly out your mouth.
7. Begin on the floor.
   • Sweep or vacuum the center of the room. You will be repeating this later so just get the majority of dirt for now.
   • Move furniture to the center of the room. Do not move heavy furniture with haste! Stick your rear out as far as you can and use some butt power! So many people fail to fully use the largest muscle in the human body--the gluteus maximus! Do not forget to keep breathing! When dragging a large or heavy item lead with your rear. Do not keep you back hunched and have your shoulders back as far as possible.
   • Begin wiping wood trim with a damp rag in any corner. See how far you can bend without straining as you wipe dust from woodwork. Continue around the room until you have dusted all of the trim.
   • Sweep and damp mop or vacuum the areas normally covered by furniture. Pretend that it is the first time you have done these tasks and focus on the way you are moving. Reach only as far as you can with the broom, mop, or vacuum using your arms. Keep your torso standing straight and move your feet if you need to reach farther than your arms will allow. When bending to sweep dust into the dust pan, allow your butt as high into the air as it is able to go. Focus on feeling a stretch in your hamstrings. Allow your knees to bend slightly if this is more comfortable.
   • Move furniture back into place using the butt method with breathing relaxed. Now you can thoroughly sweep and damp mop or vacuum the center of the room using the methods previously described
8. Stand in the middle of the room, take a deep breath, and look at the work you've accomplished without ever straining or losing your breath!
9. Play your favorite music while cleaning, and try to find a favorite selection that you listen to exclusively while cleaning. This will make the cleaning more enjoyable and entertaining.
10. Light a scented candle or use aromatherapy when cleaning, and apply scented cleaners to wood and furniture, where appropriate.
11. Clean for 15 minutes every morning and another 15 minutes every night to ensure that a minimal of high standard is maintained. Cleaning regularly prevents the build-up of cleaning that becomes even more complicated and burdensome to tackle.
12. Make a list of cleaning activities in the order you anticipate doing them. Refer to the list whenever at a point of confusion over what to do next. This keeps the energy flowing and the cleaning in action.
13. Do something special to celebrate your cleaned home. Have a special dinner with music and candles for the entire family, or go and lie down and read or do some other enjoyable activity for a set period of time.
14. Sing and smile while cleaning. Practice singing your favorite song while cleaning, even if you do not know how to sing. It could brighten your spirits and make cleaning less burdensome.
15. Consider looking into Feng Shui books on how to make your home even more beautiful. Even if you have a run-down home, investing into some creative ideas might bring out a beauty in your home that makes you enjoy being under its roof. Color and decoration can add to the experience of being at home, making it like an escape.
16. Know that the messiest of person can become a tidy homemaker with the right daily discipline. You can transform your home and emotional sense of well-being by making your living environment comfortable and clean.
17. Buy storage boxes for unused items and store them away. Throw out, or better yet, donate to charity, old clothing items and goods that you no longer use or need. Compartmentalize items in your home into storage boxes and keep them out of sight.
18. Invest in scented cleaning products, air fresheners, and aromatherapy dish soaps. These make cleaning even more of an enjoyable experience.
19. Store all of your cleaning supplies together in a bucket. When you have all of your cleaning supplies together in one place, cleaning becomes a much more efficient task to undertake.
20. Buy enough dish rags so that you can replace the dish rag after each day's worth of dish washing. You can buy new dish rags or simply cut up old material into squares and store them under the sink for dish washing purposes.

The 10 easiest ways to green your home

Being earth-friendly doesn't require going solar or growing all your own food. There are plenty of easy ways to make a big difference.

When it comes to the environment, being a good global citizen starts at your doorstep. From recycling to using alternative cleaning materials, minor changes at home can add up to real benefits for the planet, not to mention your own health and happiness.

It may be a cliché, but the best way to be Earth-friendly is to cut down on what you consume and recycle whenever you can. The U.S. generates about 208 million tons of municipal solid waste a year, according to the National Institutes of Health. That's more than 4 pounds per person per day. Every little bit helps; recycling just one glass bottle saves enough electricity to light a 100-watt bulb for four hours.

Here are 10 more easy ways to green your home:

1. Green up your appliances. Getting rid of that old refrigerator in the garage could save you as much as $150 a year, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Appliance use comprises about 18% of a typical home’s total energy bill, with the fridge being one of the biggest energy hogs. If any of your appliances is more than 10 years old, the EPA suggests replacing them with energy-efficient models that bear their "Energy Star" logo. Energy Star-qualified appliances use 10%-50% less energy and water than standard models. According to the Energy Star site, if just one in 10 homes used energy-efficient appliances, it would be equivalent to planting 1.7 million new acres of trees.

Also, consider what you put in that energy-efficient refrigerator. Pesticides, transportation and packaging are all things to consider when stocking up. Buying local cuts down on the fossil fuels burned to get the food to you while organic foods are produced without potentially harmful pesticides and fertilizers.

2. Watch the temp. Almost half a home's energy consumption is due to heating and cooling. 

• Turn down the thermostat in cold weather and keep it higher in warm weather. Each degree below 68°F (20°C) during colder weather saves 3%-5% more heating energy, while keeping your thermostat at 78°F in warmer weather will save you energy and money. A programmable thermostat will make these temperature changes for you automatically.
• Clean your furnace's air filter monthly during heavy usage.
• Consider a new furnace. Today's furnaces are about 25% more efficient than they were in the 1980s. (And don't forget to check out furnaces carrying the Energy Star label.)
• To keep your cool in warmer weather, shade your east and west windows and delay heat-generating activities such as dishwashing until evening.
• Use ceiling fans instead of air conditioners. Light clothing in summer is typically comfortable between 72°F and 78°F. But moving air feels cooler, so a slow-moving fan easily can extend the comfort range to 82°F, according to "Consumer Guide to Home Energy Savings" by Alex Wilson.

3. Save water. The Web site "Water — Use it Wisely," created by a group of Arizona cities, lists 100 simple ways to save water. We’ll share just a few here:

• Put an aerator on all household faucets and cut your annual water consumption by 50%. 
• Install a low-flow toilet. They use only 1.6 gallons per flush, compared to 3.5 gallons per flush for pre-1994 models. If you have an older model, adjust your float valve to admit less water into the toilet's tank. 

Of course, you don't need products to save water — behavioral changes also add up quickly: using a broom instead of the garden hose to clean your driveway can save 80 gallons of water and turning the water off when you brush your teeth will save 4.5 gallons each time.

4. Clean green. Stop buying household cleaners that are potentially toxic to both you and the environment. In his book, "The Safe Shopper's Bible," David Steinman suggests reading labels for specific, eco-friendly ingredients that also perform effectively. These include grain alcohol instead of toxic butyl cellosolve, commonly found in carpet cleaner and some window cleaners as a solvent; coconut or other plant oils rather than petroleum in detergents; and plant-oil disinfectants such as eucalyptus, rosemary or sage rather than triclosan, an antifungal agent found in soaps and deodorant. Or, skip buying altogether and make your own cleaning products. Use simple ingredients such as plain soap, water, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), vinegar, washing soda (sodium carbonate), lemon juice and borax and save money at the same time. Check out these books by Annie Bertold-Bond for cleaning recipes: "Clean and Green" and "Better Basics for the Home."

5. Let there be energy-efficient light. Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs (CFLs) use 66% less energy than a standard incandescent bulb and last up to 10 times longer. Replacing a 100-watt incandescent bulb with a 32-watt CFL can save $30 in energy costs over the life of the bulb.

6. Save a tree, use less paper.  You can buy "tree-free" 100% post-consumer recycled paper for everything from greeting cards to toilet paper. Paper with a high post-consumer waste content uses less virgin pulp and keeps more waste paper out of landfills. 

Other tips:

• Remove yourself from junk mail lists. Each person will receive almost 560 pieces of junk mail this year, which adds up nationally to 4.5 million tons, according to the Native Forest Network. About 44% of all junk mail is thrown in the trash, unopened and unread, and ends up in a landfill. To stem the flow into your own home, contact the Direct Marketing Association's Mail Preference Service at P.O. Box 643, Carmel, NY 10512, or download the online form. Opt out of credit card or insurance offers at OptOutPrescreen.com or by calling 888-567-8688, a single automated phone line maintained by the major credit bureaus.
• Buy unbleached paper. Many paper products, including some made from recycled fibers, are bleached with chlorine. The bleaching process can create harmful byproducts, including dioxins, which accumulate in our air, water and soil over time.

Finally, here's a third answer to the old "paper or plastic" question: No thanks. Carry your own cloth bags to the store to avoid using store bags.

7. Want hardwood floors? Opt for bamboo. Bamboo is considered an environmentally friendly flooring material due to its high yield and the relatively fast rate at which it replenishes itself. It takes just four to six years for bamboo to mature, compared to 50-100 years for typical hardwoods. Just be sure to look for sources that use formaldehyde-free glues.

8. Reduce plastics, reduce global warming. Each year, Americans throw away some 100 billion polyethylene plastic bags — from grocery and trash bags to those ultra-convenient sandwich bags. Unfortunately, plastics are made from petroleum — the processing and burning of which is considered one of the main contributors to global warming, according to the EPA. In addition, sending plastics to the landfill also increases greenhouse gases. Reduce, re-use and recycle your plastics for one of the best ways to combat global warming.

9. Use healthier paint. Conventional paints contain solvents, toxic metals and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can cause smog, ozone pollution and indoor air quality problems with negative health effects, according to the EPA. These unhealthy ingredients are released into the air while you’re painting, while the paint dries and even after the paints are completely dry. Opt instead for zero- or low-VOC paint, made by most major paint manufacturers today.

10. Garden green. First, use compost instead of synthetic fertilizers. Compost provides a full complement of soil organisms and the balance of nutrients needed to maintain the soil’s well-being without the chemicals of synthetic fertilizers. And healthy soil minimizes weeds and is key to producing healthy plants, which in turn can prevent many pest problems from developing to begin with.

• Use native plants as much as possible. Native plants have adapted over time to the local environment and support native animals. They also use less water and require less of your attention.
• Focus on perennials. Gardening with plants that live for more than one year means you don't have to pay for new plants every year; it also saves the resources used commercially to grow annuals.
• Stop using chemical pesticides. American households use 80 million pounds of pesticides each year, according to the EPA. These toxic chemicals escape gardens and concentrate in the environment, posing threats to animals and people, especially children. A better alternative is to try a variety of organic and physical pest control methods, such as using diatomaceous earth to kill insects, pouring boiling water on weeds or using beer to bait slugs. You can find more non-chemical pest control tips at the National Audubon Society's site.

Finally, consider using an old-fashioned push mower. The only energy expended is yours.

9 Ways to Make Your Home More Energy Efficient

The house is a system. You save money and improve performance when you take cost-effective measures that reduce building loads, and then install systems and appliances that are the right size to meet the reduced loads. In general, over-sizing worsens performance and increases costs.

The most effective strategy for improving household energy efficiency is to first target your home’s envelope—walls, attic, windows, and doors. Then improve the energy efficiency of systems, such as heating, cooling, lighting, and appliances. Finally, consider clean energy generation (solar, geothermal, and so on).

1

Make sure your walls and attic are well insulated.

Effective insulation slows the rate that heat flows out of the house in winter or into the house in summer, so less energy is required to heat or cool the house. If your house has no wall insulation, and it has more-or-less continuous wall cavities (such as conventional stud walls), blown-in insulation can greatly improve your comfort and save enough energy to be very cost-effective. (It rarely pays to blow additional insulation into already insulated walls.) If your attic is unfinished, it often pays to upgrade its insulation.

[ Find an energy auditor near you.  GreenHomeGuide has the nation's #1 directory of local green home professionals. ]

Your contractor’s expertise is more important than the insulation material you choose. Properly installed fiberglass, cellulose, and most foam insulation materials can all reduce the heat conduction of the completed wall system. The key is “properly installed.” Ideally, the contractor will use an infrared camera during or after installation to look for voids.

2

Upgrade or replace windows.

If your windows are old and leaky, it may be time to replace them with energy-efficient models or boost their efficiency with weatherstripping and storm windows. It is almost never cost-effective to replace windows just to save energy. According to EnergyStar.gov, replacing windows will save 7 to 24 percent of your heating and air-conditioning bills, but the larger savings would be associated with replacing single-glazed windows. However, if you are replacing windows for other reasons anyway, in many areas the additional cost of Energy Star–rated replacement windows is very modest, perhaps $15 per window. This upgrade would be cost-effective—and increase your comfort to boot.

3

Plant shade trees and shrubs around your house.

If your house is older, with relatively poor insulation and windows, good landscaping (particularly deciduous trees) can save energy, especially if planted on the house’s west side. In summer, the foliage blocks infrared radiation that would warm the house, while in winter the bare branches let this radiation come through. Of course, if your house has very good insulation and Energy Star or better windows, the effect is much, much smaller because the building shell itself is already blocking almost all the heat gain.

4

Replace an older furnace with a high-efficiency system.

If your furnace was built before 1992 and has a standing pilot, it probably wastes 35 percent of the fuel it uses, and it is probably near the end of its service life. In this case, in all but the warmest climates, ACEEE recommends early replacement with acondensing furnace with annual efficiency of at least 90 percent. This type of furnace wastes no more than 10 percent of the natural gas you buy, and may save you as much as 27 percent on your heating bill.

If your furnace was installed after 1991, it probably has an annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) rating of 80 percent, so the savings from replacement is smaller, but would be at least 11 percent if the unit is working perfectly. Your heating service technician or energy auditor may be able to help you determine the AFUE of your present system.

For houses with boilers and hot-water heat distribution (radiators, baseboard), the savings from a modern condensing boiler with outdoor reset or equivalent feedback controls can be substantially larger, since the condensing boilers allow reducing the circulating loop temperature almost all the time.

5

Improve the efficiency of your hot water system.

First, turn down the temperature of your water heater to the warm setting (120°F). Second, insulate your hot water lines so they don’t cool off as quickly between uses. Third, use low-flow fixtures for showers and baths. While storage water heater standards were raised in 2001, it was probably not enough to justify throwing out an existing water heater that is working well.

Advanced contractors are now installing “on demand” hot water circulating loops that use a small pump to accelerate delivery of hot water to remote fixtures, which works great with low-flow fixtures. These are activated when users turn on a bathroom or kitchen tap, and turn off when hot water reaches the fixture. In ACEEE’s opinion, a continuous recirculating “hotel” loop wastes enormous amounts of water-heating energy, not to mention the electricity used for pumping.

6

Replace incandescent lightbulbs with compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs).

CFLs can save three-quarters of the electricity used by incandescents. Most people don’t think about the fact that the electricity to run a lightbulb costs much more than the bulb itself. One of the new CFLs costs about two or three dollars, but it lasts 10,000 hours and uses only about 27 watts to generate as much light as a 100-watt incandescent bulb. During its life, it uses about $22 in electricity, so the total cost is about $25. A 100-watt incandescent bulb costs 50 cents, but lasts 1,000 hours so you need 10 of them ($5 to buy) to last 10,000 hours. In those 10,000 hours you will use 1,000 kilowatts of electricity, which will cost more than $80 at a national average price. So the lighting cost of the CFL is less than one-third of the cost for the incandescent. The best targets for replacement are 60- to 100-watt bulbs used several hours a day, because usage affects how long it takes to recover the investment.

7

If you buy a new refrigerator, don’t leave the old one plugged in.

Avoid the temptation to use the old fridge as a backup for party supplies and liquid refreshment. The extra storage space will cost you: figure an extra $50–150 per year in electricity to keep that older fridge running. In contrast, the new fridge, particularly if Energy Star rated, may cost only $30–60 per year to run because refrigerator efficiency has improved so much in the past three decades. Under these circumstances, think about how much refrigeration you really need. The best rule is to have only one refrigerator, and to size it to meet your real needs. That allows the luxury of ice-makers and similar conveniences with a clear conscience.

Also consider configuration. A similarly sized refrigerator with a top-mount freezer will use 20 to 25 percent less energy than a side-by-side model and often offers more usable refrigerator and freezer space.

8

Take advantage of new tax incentives to improve your home.

Federal tax incentives are available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Energy efficiency incentives for upgrades to existing homes have been extended, and are now available for 2009 and 2010. These incentives now cover up to $1,500 (from $500), based on 30 percent of the cost of the improvement. Improvements can include building-envelope improvements (windows, insulation) and heating/air-conditioning upgrades. There are also 30-percent credits, without a cap, for on-site renewables (solar photovoltaic and solar hot-water systems, small wind systems, and geothermal heat pumps).

9

Schedule an energy audit for more expert advice on your home as a whole.

Energy auditors and raters use specialized tools and skills to evaluate your home and recommend the most cost-effective measures to improve its comfort and efficiency, as well as the best sequence for doing them to take advantage of interactions. The rater can also provide independent verification of contractors’ work quality. Look for raters who are RESNET Accredited. In some regions, there are Home Performance with Energy Star programs, too. Most of these programs include low-cost home assessment and strong quality assurance practices and/or inspections.
