Home Sweet Home Office

I have strived to have a paperless office for the past several years – often coming close but of course there are always going to be papers that have to stay in tact.

There are several ways to cut down on paper clutter.

• Scan receipts and other papers into your computer turning them into digital files
• Open mail and pitch the envelope along with any frivolous inserts
• File important papers in file boxes or a filing cabinet
• Sign up for digital statements

You cannot stop with simply Scanning papers. Those scanned images have to be saved in some way. I suggest turning them into PDF files. A PDF file will keep the document in proportion and can be printed to a hardcopy very easily if needed.
