Pick the rooms you want to tackle and DeclutterDash breaks them into bite-size tasks packed into sprints, spread over as many days as you like. Tick tasks off as you go and watch the count of things leaving the house grow.
How a declutter sprint works
Choose a sprint length, fifteen minutes is the classic, and press Start sprint. Work on one small area only: a drawer, a shelf, a corner of the room. Pick up each item and decide straight away whether to keep it, donate it, throw it out, recycle it, sell it or put it away where it belongs, and tap the matching counter. When the timer chimes, stop, even if you are mid-drawer. DeclutterDash logs the sprint with the number of things that left the house.
Stopping on time matters. It keeps decluttering from becoming a dreaded marathon and makes it easy to start again tomorrow. Take the donate bag to the car right away so the items actually leave.
Planning a whole home
Tick the zones you want to work on and choose how many sprints you can manage each day. DeclutterDash packs the tasks for those zones into sprints that fit your timer and spreads them across days, so you can see how long the whole job will take. Tick tasks off on screen or print the checklist. With every zone selected and fifteen minute sprints, the plan comes to 38 sprints, a little over eight hours of work, which at two sprints a day takes under three weeks.
Private by design
DeclutterDash has no accounts and no server-side storage. Your plan, ticks and tallies stay in this browser and are saved in local storage on this device only.
Frequently asked questions
Why 15 minutes?
It is long enough to finish a drawer or a shelf and short enough that starting feels easy. You can choose 5 to 30 minutes.
Does the timer keep running if I close the tab?
The start time is saved, so when you come back the clock shows the right time left. The chime only plays while the page is open.
What do the tally buttons do?
They count decisions. Each sprint is logged with how many items left the house, which is surprisingly motivating.
Is DeclutterDash free?
Yes. The timer, tallies and printable plans are free with no sign-up.
Is anything stored online?
No. Your tallies, plan and ticks are saved only in this browser on this device.
