Paper Management Tips

Pea Organizing Services
  • Staple papers together instead of using paper clips.


  • Immediately tear articles out of magazines you want to keep rather than keeping the magazines or read magazines online and save them as computer files.

  • Archive your filing system annually.

  • Keep important documents in a fire safe box or safe deposit box and keep copies of them in your home files.

  • Write a throw out date on papers as you file them.

  • Go through your mail each day so you can immediately dispose of the junk and put your bills in a separate space.

  • Schedule a regular time to pay your bills, read articles, and file your papers.

  • Cancel magazine subscriptions you do not have time for or share them with friends and neighbors.

  • Pay bills automatically or online to save paper.

  • Reduce credit cards to one for personal use and one for business use.

  • Ask your bank to keep your processed checks rather than sending them to you.

  • Do NOT stack papers, which causes them to get lost or spread out on your desk and table tops.

  • Respond to invitations and offers as they arrive and immediately put them on your calendar.

  • Create one defined space for photos and scrap booking items until you can organize them.

  • Do not keep negatives, bad photos or duplicate photos
