Before I begin this blog I just want to ask how many of you get bombarded with paperwork?
I don't know why, but even though I have opted to go paper free, I still get bogged down with paper.
So what I have done is put it all into a divided file system or I put it into a box folder.
I will then start sorting it out into category, Finance, health and wellbeing, coupons, to be shredded or household, etc
Then I will sort it out again, separating different statements and companies.
I was at one point scanning them all and saving them all on my computer but doing it that way, means the memory gets used up.
I keep those that are 5 years old, any earlier than that gets disposed of and shredded.
All things like old bank statements, council tax bills etc should be shredded because of identity fraud.
I would invest in a filing cabinet system, because it is important to keep all paper work together filed should need to go through it.
So I hope you have found this blog to be useful and I will blog again next week.
Many thanks for reading,
Carrie X
