There are few steps for you-

Get your areas sorted- The main purpose of decluttering is to give you mental satisfaction that your space looks the best therefore it is mandatory to create a rough map of your home and divide the sections so you know which thing is to be stuffed where.

Divide the work- Decluttering could be a real tedious work hence if you have your mother and father along with you, divide the work between the whole family except your grandparents who are mostly sensitive to dust because of the age factor. It can be a real hectic task so dividing the work would not create much pressure neither on you nor any of your family.

Decide things to be kept- Often there are things that we do not need anymore but we do not have time to throw that away or maybe we do not want to let that thing go away, but we need to understand obsession for anything can be bad hence practice minimalism and let all these things go away. If there is anything in your grandparent’s room as well throw that too because that way it brings bad luck.

Separate donations and trash- When you decide on what to keep and what not it is time to decide which stuff out of that you would want to donate to the needy people and what is the trash. If there are things you want to keep but it is of no use consider giving it away to donate that way you will feel happy that the object has gone to someone who might need it more than you and at the same time you would not feel obsessed about it. This habit is not only needed at the time of decluttering but also on the way of going ahead always make sure to make two bags one for the trash and one for the donations.

Consider decluttering regularly- Getting organized and clutter-free is the aim that you might have achieved but it might go away soon after you get busy in your lifestyle. But if you really want to stay healthy and pursue an organized lifestyle this is the only way to get that. Tidying up requires patience and dedication so keep in your mind to clean the mess every now and then to avoid cluttering.

Once you clean the whole place and surprise your grandparents , I'm sure they would not be disappointed at all. They need and deserve all the happiness of the world so let’s give them a safe and clean space of their own.
