The lead-up to Christmas is the perfect time to organise an office declutter in preparation for a fresh New Year.

Setting up a declutter campaign at any time of the year is a brilliant opportunity to get creative with your reuse project.

It’s a great way to boost engagement during one of the busiest times of the year.

Here’s everything you need to set up a declutter campaign and take a look at our top tips on delivering a reuse campaign at Christmas.

Once you have your declutter plan in place one of the first actions is to tell everybody about it.

Simply send your members a message encouraging them to reuse. This is a super easy action you can take with good impact.

Here is a template announcement you can use and amend as you see fit. 

The festive season is the perfect time to declutter your office space ready for a fresh and productive New Year.

You’ll get a feeling of enormous wellbeing with a clean and tidy area. This will translate to better productivity and success for the New Year.

While you declutter stop make sure you gift any unwanted or extra items to colleagues who want them.

Don’t just put them in the bin!

Warp It makes this easy. It gives you the chance to sort out your working environment and ensure items you no longer want are rehomed and reused.

As well as making easy to gift surplus items to colleagues, Warp It will also help you rehome items to partner organisations or charities.

So, if you have an item that's taking up space you no longer need, put it on Warp It.

Why deliver a reuse message at Christmas?

As Christmas approaches staff tend to get excited and often look for distractions. Clearing their space is a great way to do something a bit different with a productive outcome.

It’s a logical move to declutter space at Christmas ready for return to work in the New Year and new start in January.

Marketing statistics show it takes an average of six points of contact to make a sale.

This means your staff need to see a piece of content about how good your reuse system is six times before they take part. So a declutter campaign in the lead-up to Christmas is another opportunity.

Most people don’t want to exchange gifts with co-workers because it can be awkward, so gifting surplus assets is super easy and fun way around this. At Christmas people often feel more generous so emphasise the charitable giving aspects of your reuse program.
