When's the Last Time You Parked in Your Garage?
If your answer is "I can't remember," it's time for a garage cleanout. The garage is the most common dumping ground in any home — and the most satisfying space to reclaim.
Step 1: Empty Everything
Yes, everything. Pull it all out onto the driveway. This gives you a clear view of what you actually have and forces you to make decisions about every item.
Step 2: Sort Into Categories
Group items by type:
- Tools and hardware
- Sports and outdoor gear
- Holiday decorations
- Automotive supplies
- Random household items
Step 3: Be Ruthless
For each item, ask yourself:
- When did I last use this?
- Do I have duplicates?
- Is it broken or outdated?
- Would I buy this again today?
If the answer to most of these is unfavorable, it's time to let it go.
Step 4: Clean the Space
While the garage is empty, sweep it out. This is also a good time to check for any damage, leaks, or pest issues.
Step 5: Organize What's Left
Invest in some basic organization:
- Wall-mounted hooks for tools and bikes
- Clear bins with labels for seasonal items
- A simple shelving unit for frequently used items
Step 6: Haul Away the Junk
