Warehouse Cleanout Tips
Start with a Plan. End with a Clear Space
Cleaning out any room can be a big task, depending on what’s in it. Cleaning out a warehouse is already a monumental project given the size of the space alone. Just thinking about it can be overwhelming. Luckily there are ways to help lighten the load. Consider the following warehouse cleanout tips and call in reinforcements when needed.
Planning for Warehouse Cleanout
Before taking on any large task, it’s always a good idea to start with a plan. When planning a warehouse cleanout, start with your inventory list. Even before you begin moving things around, organize the different items on this list into three categories:
- Keep. What’s staying in the warehouse or being moved to another facility?
- Donate. What do you no longer need but someone else could still use?
- Discard. Are there any damaged or expired items that won’t do anyone any good?
Once you’ve noted which items in your inventory fits into these categories, the process should seem less daunting. Obviously, it’s helpful if these items are all stored together. If not, try to designate an area of the warehouse to separate what’s staying and what’s going. This will help when it comes time to clearing certain items out.
