Reduce Your Paper Output

Often the biggest contributor to office clutter and chaos is paper.  What should you do with it all?  Where does it come from, anyway?  Aside from engaging the help of a wonderful professional office organizer (!) to assist you with your paper struggles, there are ways that you can decrease your own paper output.  Decreasing paper output not only helps you, but you'll also be doing others a huge favor by producing less paper clutter for them.

Quick paper reducing suggestions:

• Think before you print!
• Send copies of documents to fewer people.
• Reduce the number of office forms.
• Call to reply to someone if a letter/memo is not necessary.
• Email (although too many emails is another big issue for folks...think before you email, too).
• If you must write and send on paper, keep it brief.

Going "paperless" is not an option for everybody, but most people can find small ways to use less paper and reduce their struggle with having too much of it.  Less paper...less stress!
