How to Clean Out a Garage in One Weekend

Garage cleanouts fail for one reason: everything comes out, nothing gets decided, and by Sunday evening it all goes back in. The fix is deciding before you carry anything.

Saturday morning: sort in place

Four zones on the driveway: keep, donate, sell, dispose. Touch each item once and put it in a zone. Do not start organizing shelves yet.

Saturday afternoon: fill the container

Broken furniture, dried paint cans set aside for hazardous drop-off, warped lumber, dead electronics into their own pile. A 10-yard box handles most single garages.

Sunday: rebuild the space

Now install shelving and hooks with only the keep pile to place. Storing less is what makes the result last past next month.
