Garage clean-out tips. Why? Because your garage is overflowing with stuff that you put there because you didn't want to deal with it at the time you took it out of the house. The piles are deep and high and completely unorganized, so much so, you can't remember where you put what. Buried might be otherwise useful items, but it's so messy, you can't possibly tell.
About DIY Garage Clean-Out
The good news is, this won't be a difficult task. However, the bad news is it will take quite a bit of time and be a lot of work. Why most people get discouraged is because they don't know where to start. One clever trick is to do something you'll probably dread, and, that's to empty it out entirely.
As we all know, the garage becomes the home for everything we don't want to keep in the house. To maintain this constant flow of fluctuating items, good organization is a must. Whatever the size, the garage should be swept out monthly and thoroughly cleaned once a year to maintain order. --DIY Network
Once totally empty, you'll have no choice but to finish and you'll find it very easy to part with things you no longer want. That's the conundrum with going section by section--if you do, it's much easier to justify keeping things you don't use simply to avoid having to rid yourself of them for the extra space.
