Clearing your home of paper

Collect together all your newspapers, magazines, journals, brochures, leaflets, catalogues, junk mail, flyers and menus.

Put any newspapers, magazines or journals that you’ve read in your domestic recycling.

Ask yourself if you will actually read the ones you haven’t read; if you have subscriptions to these publications you might think about cancelling them.

Put any brochures, leaflets, catalogues, junk mail, flyers and menus that you don’t need to refer to again in your domestic recycling.

Decide where you will keep your magazines, etc. in the future, e.g. magazine rack, basket, drawer, coffee table. Keep menus in the kitchen in a drawer.

Enjoy catching up with your reading.
