Has your garage parking space been taken over by everything else you own? With the constant flow of items in and out and the semi-hidden nature of this storage space, garages are notoriously difficult to keep organized. if you don\u2019t have any room to park a car inside, or if it&#8217;s just gotten a little too messy, it\u2019s time to think about <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cleaning out the garage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we\u2019ll provide a step-by-step guide to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">organizing your garage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s going to take some time, work, and patience, but you can do it.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> So, roll up your sleeves and get ready to show your garage who&#8217;s boss!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1: Empty Your Garage<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be extremely difficult to perform a spring <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clean-out of your garage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> when you can\u2019t see or access everything in the space, so your first action item should be to remove everything and bring it into the light.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, we mean everything. Empty the contents of your garage on the driveway or lawn. (We recommend putting down tarps to keep everything clean and dry.) To make this task easier, concentrate on one side at a time. If you are short on time, you can tackle each side on a separate day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2: Sort Your Items<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleaning out your garage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a great opportunity to ask yourself whether each item you own still serves you (or \u201csparks joy\u201d if you\u2019re a Marie Kondo fan). We suggest performing two separate rounds of sorting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the first round, assess every single item and place it into one of the following categories:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give away\/sell<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trash<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unsure<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Really ask yourself if you still need the item. If not, put it in the &#8220;give away&#8221; or &#8220;trash&#8221; pile based on whether it can be useful to someone else. At the end of the sorting, check back in with your &#8220;unsure&#8221; pile and make a final decision. If you still aren\u2019t sure, we recommend giving the item away.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the second round of sorting, focus only on your \u201ckeep\u201d pile. Now, you want to\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">group like items together so you can store them together when you put them back in the garage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some common categories include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lawn care<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Decorations<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sports equipment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Books<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kids&#8217; toys<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Painting equipment<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3: Donate, Sell, or Toss Unused Items<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s time to say goodbye to the items that no longer belong in your life. For some, this step is the most cathartic. Donate or sell items that can make someone else\u2019s life a little brighter. Here\u2019s a list of <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.priceselfstorage.com\/blog\/7-charities-accepting-gently-used-goods\">seven charities that accept gently used goods<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for things that are broken, too worn out, or simply not valuable, now is the time to toss them. Make sure to dispose of items properly (you may need to take electronics and hazardous chemicals to special locations). If something holds sentimental value but is taking up too much physical space in your life, take a picture so you can always remember it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 4: Invest in Garage Storage Tools<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you know exactly what\u2019s going back into your garage, consider how to use your space as productively as possible. Remember, you need to store your remaining items <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fit your vehicle into the garage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The way to do this is to invest in tried-and-true storage organization tools like:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storage containers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shelving and storage racks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cabinets.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pegboards.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storage Containers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storage containers are great for packing up things like seasonal clothing, books, holiday decorations, and other small- to medium-sized items. They allow you to store similar things together and can stack conveniently against walls or on shelves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We recommend using sturdy plastic containers with sealed lids. Cardboard boxes can work, but they tend to break down over time and can\u2019t protect against moisture. Always label your containers on multiple sides so you know exactly what they contain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shelving and Storage Racks<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Optimize your vertical space by installing shelves against the walls of your garage or buying storage racks. Many shelving units allow you to move shelves up or down so you can store larger boxes together on one shelf and smaller containers on another.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cabinets<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Garage cabinets offer many of the same benefits of shelving with a few extra features. Many come with adjustable shelves, allowing you to personalize your storage. They may also come with wheels, which can be very helpful if you have a large garage or like to move things around.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pegboards\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than keeping all your tools rattling around in drawers or cabinets, hang them on a pegboard so you can clearly see every tool in your collection. You can also use pegboards to hang things like wrench and screwdriver sets, hammers, saws, paintbrushes, drills, and levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can even add shelves and buckets to your pegboard to store things that don\u2019t hang as well.

If so, consider renting a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">garage storage unit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They&#8217;re great for storing the things you love but don\u2019t use very often, such as holiday decorations, seasonal clothing, family memorabilia, or season-specific sports equipment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rent a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Garage Storage Unit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> With Price Self Storage<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We hope this guide has inspired you as you tackle <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cleaning out the garage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

Has your garage parking space been taken over by everything else you own? Take a quick look in the dictionary and you\u2019ll see that a garage was meant to be, \u201can indoor space in which to park a motor vehicle\u201d. As long as we\u2019re talking definitions, did you know that the word garage comes from the Norse word for protection? The garage was meant to be a place to store and protect your car. Without a car, most of us wouldn\u2019t be able to go to work, pick up our kids at school, or accomplish any number of other things that fill our daily to-do list. On top of that, cars are not cheap; on the contrary, they represent a major expenditure for most people. So how can you protect your car? Well, there are a lot of things you can do to protect it and keep it running and looking it\u2019s very best; washing it, waxing it, changing the oil regularly, and installing an alarm to name just a few. One of the easiest ways to protect your car, however, is by simply parking it safely within your garage when you\u2019re done using it.\r\n\r\nWell, what if I don\u2019t have room to park a car in my garage you ask?.. With the constant flow of items in and out and the semi-hidden nature of this storage space, Garages are notoriously difficult to keep organized. If your garage has taken on a life of it\u2019s own, if you don\u2019t have any room to park a car inside, or if its just gotten a little too messy, it might be time to clean out and organize your garage. So, roll up your sleeves and get ready to show your garage whose boss!\r\n\r\n<h3>Step 1: Empty Your Garage<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Empty the contents of your garage to the driveway or lawn. Make sure to take note of what you take out of the garage.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>The task is easier if you concentrate on one side at a time. If you are short on time, you can tackle each side on a separate day.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Separate everything into categories such as type and frequency of use.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Think about where it makes sense to place each category.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>If you run into unnecessary items that have sentimental value you can always put it in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.priceselfstorage.com\/\">storage<\/a>.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Step 2: Cleaning<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>When the garage is empty, start cleaning by sweeping the floor.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>You can also use a pressure washer to clean the floor, especially if there are any oil stains.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>You may want to paint your garage floor with a special sealant coating to keep the floors clean and protected.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Step 3: Planning And Organizing<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Before you start putting everything back, take a minute to plan out and map each space in the garage. This will help you to determine how to use the space most effectively. Don\u2019t forget to leave room for your car!<strong><\/strong><\/li>\r\n\t<li>Buy or build shelving to store large items (Try this do-it-yourself shelving project at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diynetwork.com\/how-to\/building-an-overhead-garage-storage-shelf\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">www.diynetwork.com<\/a>).<strong><\/strong><\/li>\r\n\t<li>Purchase storage bins to store smaller items. You can store the bins on shelves or stack them on top of each other. Make sure to label the bins so you will know what\u2019s inside them.<strong><\/strong><\/li>\r\n\t<li>Make sure to maximize vertical storage space by hanging bicycles, larger camping items (such as canoes), or lumber overhead.<strong><\/strong><\/li>\r\n\t<li>Wall hangers are inexpensive and are perfect for storing tools such as rakes, shovels, and garden tools. <strong><\/strong><\/li>\r\n\t<li>A workbench and tool drawer work well for storing your tools and provide a place to work on your household projects.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nThese tips should come in handy when you are ready to clean and organize your garage. Just remember, of course, to leave a place for your car in there. A place that is safe and protected from the elements by four solid walls and a roof.
