Are you a
Homeowner?Follow these five decluttering tips to protect your family and make your space more functional.
In an emergency, every second counts. Make sure hallways, staircases, and exits are free from boxes, furniture, and general clutter that could slow down an evacuation.
Old newspapers, cardboard boxes, and unused paint cans can act as fuel in a fire. Store flammable materials in a safe, dry place away from heat sources, or dispose of them responsibly.
Avoid overloading power sockets and ensure that electrical panels, outlets, and heaters aren’t blocked by furniture or piles of belongings. Good airflow around appliances can prevent overheating and reduce fire risks.
Your fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and smoke alarms should always be easy to access. If they’re buried under clutter, they won’t be helpful in an emergency. Make sure they’re clearly visible and in good working order.
As you declutter, take the opportunity to test and replace any outdated fire safety devices. If your smoke, heat, or CO alarms are more than 10 years old, upgrade to modern, interlinked models for maximum protection.
Declutter and defend against fire & CO risks because a safer home starts with an organized space.
