Finally tackled the garage reorganization project

6d ago1 min read

Been putting this off for like two years. Spent Saturday and Sunday sorting through all the junk, got some heavy duty shelving units, and now I can actually park my car in there. The kids helped which meant mostly they got in the way but at least they felt included. Found some old tools from my dad that I forgot I had. Donated three bags of stuff to goodwill. Feels good to have a clean space finally.

Two whole days for a garage cleanup is solid. I did mine in stages because I couldn't commit that much time all at once. What did you find hiding in there?

Did you donate stuff or just throw it out? That's always the hardest part for me. I get attached to random things I might 'need someday'.

Heavy duty shelving is a game changer. You're going to feel so much better every time you walk in there now. Nice work getting it done.

Two years of procrastination conquered in one weekend? That's the dad energy right there. Now you've got the space to actually organize all the gear.

Two years is a long time to put something off but at least you finally did it. I did mine last year and I swear junk multiplies in a garage when you're not looking. Please tell me you got rid of some stuff and didn't just reorganize the same pile.

Nice! That feeling when it's actually done is unbeatable. Did you implement any kind of system to keep it from going back to chaos mode in six months?

Two years is nothing man. I've been staring at my garage for like five years now. What system did you end up using to organize everything?

Nice! Now the real challenge is keeping it organized. I reorganized ours once and within three months it looked like a tornado hit it again.
