Firstly you can put aside things that you can possibly reuse. Such as papers which are used on one side, empty mineral water bottles, microwavable food containers. Then sort out the rest of your trash into paper, plastic and metallic categories and put them into different bags. The others, you can place them in another bag. This will ease waste collection centre in sorting them. \n\nFor 2nd hand clothes, you can auction it off on Yahoo! auctions or participate in flea markets at Tanglin Mall every weekend. You can also give it away along with your used furniture to the Salvation Army headquarters at Bishan central and they'll resell it to other people. By the way, they provide free transportation services if you're giving away your furniture. So worry not about spending more money to move your trash away.

I know this sounds funny, but get some fabric softeners and rub them all over you.  It helps with the static electricity of clothes, but it can also help with general static electricity.

It depends on how dirty they are.  Shirts alwas go in the laundry after about 4 hours of wearing them.  Jeans and pants should go back in the closet for atleast one more wear before being washed.  As long as they aren't dirty or have food or anything on them.  Sock... ALWAYS WASH YOUR SOCKS AFTER 1 USE! And do I really have to tell you about underwear??  Use Tide Cold water and save on your hot water bill.. It works really well.

Add moisture to the air, boil a pan of water. Plus, a dryer sheet will help with the clothes.

Yes. I even washed my husband clothes,hung them on a line in the winter until the water quit dripping from them then brought them in, put on a hanger and hung infront of a  heater so they'd be dry for him the next day for work. It's called roughing it.

use a cotton bud and when not in use push it through all the buttons and down the sides, a cheap and easy way to get rid of dust etc.

Windex works, so does rubbing alcohol. Use paper towel.

Get hand shower installed or take jug of water with you and wash with that. If any of above doesnt suit you, hire a servant to wash your bum when you finish.

Try pouring a full can of Coca-Cola in with the wash.\nIt's worked for me getting diesel fuel out of my clothing, it might work for your shirts.

For hard surfaces it is best to use a 1:100 solution of diluted bleach (1 tablespoon bleach in 1 quart water).  For soft surfaces like couches or rugs steam cleaning will probably be the best way to get rid of the MRSA and everything that can be put in the washing machine (blankets, pillows, towels, etc) and washed on the warm or hot cycle at least twice then dried in the dryer.  And try to make sure you wash everything!  Including things that you may consider already clean (like clothing in your closet and dresser) as they could have been contaminated.

I'm assuming you mean pants?  Soak them over night in a mix of water and detergent.  If they are white pants, add bleach to the mix.
