Need to tidy my room!
Lol well every time I try to clean my room, I start with one area, and put all the stuff I do/don't want into piles. But I end up having nowhere to put the stuff, and kind of leave it in a bigger mess than before! My room is a HUGE mess, my bin isn't big enough so I have rubbish on the floor and on my desk. I want to tidy my room, but I just.. can't lmso ;P Help?

Want to answer more questions in the Domesticity category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Cleaning?
Keep doing the piles but when you find out you don't have enough room put it in a different pile.
Piles:
*Trash
*Charity/Sell
*Keep
*Go somewhere else
The go somewhere else pile is for items that don't belong in your room. Then just run around the house putting things away.
Hope I helped.

When you start cleaning next time, get two big garbage bags. One is for trash, and one is for stuff to be donated to charity. Don't overstuff them, when they're 3/4 full, put the trash outside or the charity bag by the door, and get another bag. Instead of putting the stuff you do want into a pile, put it where your going to keep it, or at least where your going to keep it for a while.
If you think doing the room all at once will be too overwhelming, try splitting things up into an hour or so. One day, concentrate on getting all trash you can find. The next day (or weekend), you could fill up one big trash bag of things you don't want anymore to give to charity. Then work on finding all your clothes. If they don't all fit in your closet or drawers, figure out which ones your going to get rid of. (That might need to be split up over a few sessions - one for tops, one for bottoms maybe.) I don't know what fills up your room, but you get the idea. :)
The important thing is not to make stacks. Whenever you find trash, it shouldn't go into a "trash stack" it should go into a trash bin or a trash bag. When you pick up a pencil, don't put it in a "school stuff I want to keep" stack, put it in your backpack, or your schools stuff drawer, or where ever you keep pencils.

Get a garbage can in your room. Throw out the stuff as you come across it or your mom may have to call clean sweep. My mom would take my stuff and throw it out and I would never see it again. So plan a day where nothing will happen but cleaning your room.

I would go thru all your stuff and figure what you NEED and a few wants and throw things out. Thats what i had to do-trix

OMG, I have this problem too.
I think the best thing to do is to be totally ruthless and put everything that you don't need in the bin. Organise say an hour in the next week to do this.
