Use this garage cleanout plan as a step-by-step guide to make your task of cleaning out your garage even easier.

Your Garage Cleanout Plan

Step 1: Choose the right time. Despite your best efforts, your task of cleaning out your job will take more than a few hours. You should set aside at least a whole day, so you’ll want to take a look at the forecast. You’ll need to take everything out of your garage in order to clean it, so it’s best to postpone if rain is expected.

Step 2: Get everything out of the garage. Rather than trying to sweep around bikes and tools, the best way to approach this job is to remove everything from the garage and put it on your driveway. This leaves you with a blank slate.

Step 3: Categorize your items. With everything on easy display, separate your items into different categories: those you want to keep, those you want to throw away, ones you want to donate, and what can be sold.

Step 4: Clean Your Garage. Take advantage of the clear space in your garage and thoroughly clean it by sweeping, vacuuming, mopping, and getting rid of cobwebs.

Step 5: Establish an organization system. Make the most of your space by installing shelves, hooks, overhead storage, and whatever other systems you need in order to maximize your storage capacity. Be sure to make a plan before heading to the store to purchase more storage supplies.

Step 6: Return your “keep” items to the garage. Put everything you’re keeping into its designated space and inform the family of the new system to help keep it cleaner for longer.
