Problem:

* Packaging of goods (especially electronics) that we buy often include luggage other useful only occasionally. Example: usage guide, driver CD (for computer products), warranty cards, brochures and so on product promotion.
* The limited storage space at home
* After a period of storing the goods, we tend to forget that we have

Observation:

* I just bought a USB extension cable, and realized that I already have it after loading the warehouse. Similarly, the power cable, USB hub, screws, electrical extension cord, and so on.
* Too much stuff stored useless years
* The goods are eating much larger volume than it should.

Solution:

* Dispose of objects that will never be useful:
o promotional brochure. Brochures totally useless, and when we need it, chances are no longer valid. In addition, for some products, the same information can be obtained from the Internet.
o Box packaging. Beautiful regardless of its form, the box totally useless and will only spend a lot of places. As an exception was the mobile phone package that still has to sell.
o Hint useless use. Some products have even trivial usage instructions, such as a USB drive or a USB hub.
o Hint use the print version is also available in electronic version. Instructions for using the electronic version of the volume takes far less than hard copies.
o CD driver which will not be useful. For example a driver for the USB card reader and USB mass storage device other. This year 2005, not in 1998! All operating systems already have USB mass storage driver.
o The primary legislation: Does this thing one day be used? If not, throw it out. This rule requires high discipline because sometimes we feel love to throw something after purchase.
* Dispose of packaging a CD / DVD that is included in the packaging of a product and use the album CD / DVDs to store CDs / DVDs. If there is important information contained in the packaging CD / DVDs (eg serial numbers), cut and paste that information in the album CD / DVD. Album CD / DVD has advantages:
o Eating places much less than for example the shelf CD / DVD
o More easily organized, so easy to find if needed
o Uniform, all CD / DVD has the same packaging. Unlike before, there is made of paper, some plastics, there is made of mica, and so on.
o far easier to carry.
* Having disposed of the packaging box, enter the luggage of a product into a plastic bag. Give the label on the plastic bags to facilitate searches in the future.
* Special for generic items, such as power cable, USB cable, ethernet cable, hard drive cable and so on, put them in separate plastic. This is to facilitate searches in the future.
* Insert the plastic-plastic into a box. Better airtight plastic box to reduce water seepage or damage caused by insects
