Many people look forward to spring as the snow melts in Simcoe County. Many of us will be able to take advantage of the warmer weather due to the arrival of spring and warmer weather.
Spring is also when we do spring cleaning to eliminate any clutter that has built up over the winter and over time.
The garage and basement are two of the most cluttered rooms in our homes.
These steps will help you eliminate clutter in your garage this spring with Home Renovation in Simcoe.
First, work smarter and not harder.

You can sort your items much faster with our roll-off bins. A roll-off bin can be placed on your lawn and allows you to dispose of any unwanted items quickly. We have bins that will fit your needs, whether you need them for a short time or a long period. What’s the best part? The best part? We will deliver the bin, and you will fill it. Then we’ll take it away.
Step 1 – Remove All From Your Garage
To get rid of your garage clutter, you must first remove everything. Pick a place in your garage that you would like to begin and then move the items onto your driveway. You can see what you have and decide if you want it to go. This allows you to assess the space available and determine your storage options.
Step 2 – Decide What You Want To Keep
Many items found in garages are either being used or left there because there is no other place to store them. It is a good idea to divide your items into four piles: trash, keep, donate, trash, and sell.
Here are some tips to help you decide what to keep in your garage during a clean-out.
- Items you’ve used more than once during the last year
- Items that work but aren’t broken
- Items that are not easily rented/borrowed
Step 3 – Get Rid Of Unnecessary Items
Once you have identified what items you wish to keep, you can start sorting through them to determine what you can sell, donate or throw away. You can easily throw away damaged or broken items using one of our roll-off containers.
Step 4 – Clean the Space
It’s a good idea to clean out your garage after you have gone through all your belongings. This is especially important if you haven’t cleaned it in a while. Over time, dust, dirt and cobwebs can accumulate. Start by dusting your shelves and cabinets. This is the best way to clean your garage. Next, wipe any shelves and cabinets clean with a damp cloth. Finally, sweep the floor to remove any dust. To remove any dirt, clean the garage floor and let it dry.
Step 5 – Maintain an Organized Garage
The final step after all the hard work is to organize your items. It’s all about making the most of what you have. Here are some ways to achieve this.
- To make the most of the space you have, use shelving units
- To hang your tools, use a pegboard
- Wall hooks can hang larger items such as shovels and rakes.
- You can group items by category.
