Day 12: Declutter Your Car’s Glove Box

Step 1: Grab a bag and get into your car. Empty your glove box onto the seat beside you.

Step 2: Only return to your glove box items you need and use, for example:

  • Car log book
  • Pen and notebook
  • Sunscreen
  • Sunglasses
  • Current street directories
  • Relevant maps
  • Wet wipes
  • First aid items.

Step 3: Toss into the bag:

  • Yucky tissues
  • Random receipts and post-its
  • Ancient maps and street directories
  • Food remnants
  • Anything you don’t need or use.

Step 4: Throw your bag into the trash.

And you’re done!

    Actually did this some days earlier – needed to find the window sticker to prove the paint color – hubby and I had an argument – I won. So I pulled out all the old registrations, oil change receipts, and proof of insurance forms for the 9 years since we bought it. Kind of beat ya to the punch on this one.
