Trash bin in every room 🗑️

I have a small trash-bin in every room. Not just in the kitchen and bathroom. I have one in every single room in my home, so I can throw that paper, or whatever it might be, immediately. I even have one bin in my entrance, so that I can immediately throw the trash I had in my hand when entering and I won’t risk putting it down somewhere where it doesn’t belong while taking off my coat etc… Being easily distracted I leave a lot of clutter around me when jumping from task to task… so this way I give myself a shortcut to finishing the task ✌️🥳

I have trash bins and recycling bags in every room too. And for my boys laundry, I have laundry baskets in every room they occupy so that there’s NEVER an excuse for their laundry on the floor. And yet, every day and night I have to get on them about putting their laundry in ANY of their dirty clothes baskets. When they run to a different room to do it I’m literally 🤦🏽‍♀️. Why! Or when I lay their clothes they picked out and put it in their days of the week shelf. And they say, I don’t see my clothes. 😳 My son said last night I can’t find my pajamas. He’d JUST gotten his underwear from that pile 😳😂. I thought I was going to breakdown crying at that point. How do they not see these things? Is it like when you’re trying to kill a fly, and they go into that line of vision where you can’t see it anymore for a moment. 🤣 I NEED to put a small waste basket by where my husband puts his coats though, then maybe I won’t find trash by the backdoor all the time? I’ve put hooks there for him, different baskets for his shoes because he never put them in the ottoman I got for his shoes, I got a cloud magnet because he’d loose his keys, I even have a floating shelf there that WAS for the boys games to sit and wait for me to finish being ready in the morning. But he uses it to store his stuff from his pockets. And fine by me! Because now maybe he won’t loose everything. He can go to work, and I sit to use the bathroom and find his wallet 🤦🏽‍♀️. A family full of adhd, it’s a nuthouse 🤪.

I'm the same way. Although my living room is so close to the kitchen, I just use the kitchen trash can for the living room too. But all other rooms have a trash can: my husband's office which is a given, but our bedroom has two; one on my side of the bed and one on my husband's side haha. And of course I put one in my son's room...sometimes I have to remind him to use it though 🫠😹
