With the sun starting to shine and the weather warming up, you can feel spring right around the corner. Many homeowners in Park City are going to starting about their yearly spring cleaning.

One area in most homes that can always use a good spring clean is a home's garage. Let’s take a look at 3 tips that you can use this year to make cleaning your garage and keeping it clean as easy as possible.

1. Pull Everything Out

The best way to get a fresh start in your garage is to pull everything out until it is empty. You can separate your belonging into three piles: keep, donate, & throw away.

By taking everything out of your garage, you will make it easier to work in and can get a better idea of all of the things you have laying around.

You’ll want to be strict with your keep pile to make sure that you don’t simply reintroduce clutter into your garage.

While everything is out of your garage, you can take the opportunity to deep clean the space — dust off any shelves, fridges, and cabinets before cleaning the walls and floor.

2. Get Organized With Shelving & Cabinets

Once you have eliminated any unnecessary items, you’ll want to organize the things in your keep pile to prevent clutter from building back up.

You can use shelving to store frequently used items and store other less commonly used items in cabinets. Group your items by category to make them easy to find later on.

Wall hooks are also great for storing shovels, brooms, and bicycles. Pegboards can be used to store hand tools.

3. Rent A Dumpster

If it has been a while since you last deep cleaned your garage or if you have made a lot of purchases in the past, renting a dumpster can be a great way to speed up the cleaning process.

Once you have sorted everything you are keeping, you can quickly get rid of the trash without needing to take it to the dump.

If you and your neighbors are all looking at cleaning your garages, a great option is to rent a dumpster between a few people. This lowers the total cost per person and lets everyone have the convenience of the dumpster.

Conclusion

It seems like spring is right around the corner and if you are planning on cleaning your garage this spring, you’ll want to make it as easy as possible.

By pulling everything out, sorting, getting organized, and renting a dumpster, you can quickly finish your spring cleaning.
