Paper is the biggest source of clutter that invades our homes. Here are Tapioca Tidy’s top ten tips for taming the paper tiger:-

1. Consider going electronic for all utility bills and bank statements.
2. Deal daily with incoming post.
3. Create a central system for any paperwork that needs actioning or filing.
4. Recycle as soon as you have decided not to keep another take away menu.
5. Shred any identified unwanted confidential papers on a regular basis.
6. Create filing systems that are not overcomplicated and that allow easy retrieval of those all important documents.
7. Regulate any subscriptions you have.
8. Review your filed paperwork annually – you only need to keep tax return documents for 7 years and household bills are not needed.
9. Create boxes for your receipts.
10. If you are deliberating on whether you want to keep something – then its clutter and can be disposed of.
