Article: Take a quick look around for any obvious trash, like wrappers, old food, tissues, or cut off clothing tags, and toss it into a garbage bag. While you’re at it, empty any wastebaskets in your room and put in new bags. Since you’re doing a quick cleanup, stick with really obvious garbage. Don’t worry about sorting through stuff like old papers and deciding which to keep or toss. Gather up your dirty clothes and throw them in a basket or hamper. Don’t worry about sorting your clothes—just get them off the floor for now. Make sure to separate out any clean clothes so they won’t have to be washed again.  If you have a lot of clean clothes lying around, take a few minutes to fold them and put them in your dresser or hang them up in your closet. If you don’t have time for that, bundle them up neatly and put them in a basket so you can put them away later. If it’s time to change your bedsheets, strip your bed and toss those into your hamper, too. Next, look around for stuff like books, papers, toys, electronics, or any other things that belong in your room but aren’t in the right places. Gather up these items and quickly put them away.  Put books back on the shelves or put them in a tidy pile on your desk, dresser, or nightstand if you’re still using them. If there are toys around, put them in boxes or bins.  If there are small items around that you use every day, like your watch or a favorite lip balm, try putting a small decorative dish or basket on your dresser or nightstand where you can keep them all together. Chances are that a few things have gotten into your room from other parts of the house. Quickly gather up any strays—like plates and cups from the kitchen or that screwdriver you used when you changed the batteries in your clock—and bring them back to wherever they came from. If you’re really in a hurry to finish cleaning your room, put everything in a box and set it outside your bedroom door so you can put it away later.

Gather up trash and put it in a garbage bag. Pick up any laundry that’s scattered around. Put your things back where they belong. Carry out any items that belong in other rooms.
