I am sleeping in a box size room where the double bed takes up most of the space of the room and I only have few shelves in my wardrobe and drawers in my locker. Other then this, there is no other storage space and there is very little space to move around but the rent is very cheap and bills are ok and the location is close to the city.

could be kicked out of galway soon. kicked out of the house for not having a clean enough, tidy or spotless room within 1-2 weeks time.
I went through it
main problems is many items, many bags and lack of space in room, including storage space. I could do with most of that stuff. I have got rid of many bags yes and more rubbish. having a job of some kind would make things alot better for me. Whenever the house is quiet enough, I would sort out my rubbish and bags and have cleared out all recycling from the kitchen bin for everyone in the house, so they don't have to worry about that.

It is very difficult to clear my room with lack of storage space and possessing many belongings such as books, clothes and natural products. Is it possible to evict someone from the house for not cleaning out or clearing out the room within 1 weeks time???

Two tenants say there is a smell coming from the room whenever they walk by but I never noticed a smell. Although a grape contained expanded and leaked a bit. I got rid of certain things which were affected and washed the rest. I said I closed the door. There is no key for my bedroom.
w.b, please.

Do a serious cleaning after you get rid of the double bed. Get a twin size mattress or Air mattress that way you have more room, purchase a lock set with doorknob and it comes with your own keys at the hardware store. After you clean really good, scrub the walls and throw out more things, get an air freshener or use bleach spray in a few spots around the room obviously not on carpet or clothing. Best thing is downsize to a smaller mattress for more room. Besides you only need a space to lay your head down at night, while your out working and busy with your own life. Just have a clean room and limit what you bring into it. Less time you spend there the less mess there will be. Pop in to spray with bleach or air freshener every now and aagain.If your really messy they can evict you on grounds of cleanliness and safety. Honestly think what would happen if there is a fire or a snake loose in the building? You need to be safe, and smart. Off you go.

It sounds like you really need to whittle down your possessions to the bare essentials, and get creative on storage. When your place is messy and stuff is scattered everywhere, it's very difficult to clean properly....and this may be contributing to the odors your neighbors are complaining of. Maybe they're overly sensitive, but more likely, you've become "nose blind".



The one thing that came to mind when you described the amount of space the bed takes up is to put blocks (or books!) under the legs to raise it. Then you can get some plastic bins with covers to slide under the bed for storage. Another trick is to make "corner hammocks" and hang them high to hold your assorted bags. Really, the biggest thing you can do to make the place look neat and be able to keep it clean is to keep junk off the floor. When things spill or food gets dropped, that's where it goes...and if you can't clean it up because of clutter, things will get ripe.

Sounds like time to do some serious spring cleaning and rid all you don't 'need'. I went from 2400ft. 2BR to 1100 ft.1br and simply had to dump half the junk. when your stuff own you, you have too much. I have a lot of clutter yet but sift the junk every month. excess cloths get donated, good electronics gets sold,( really,only need oneTV,and need isn't much)

Personal brick-a-brack gotta go if you don't use and need it.
