I know that I am definitely not as far along as I want to be, especially given that I\u2019ll start cleaning and then get bored of it or just start watching Netflix about ten minutes in and then give up for the rest of the day. Anyway, if you have a garage, it\u2019s important that you clean it out, especially in preparation for the summer. If it was messy all winter, then you, of course, had to brave the snow, but who wants to brave the heat and then wait for the car to cool down, when you could have had it in the garage in the first place? Check out our guide to cleaning out your garage and then get to work. You got this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">The very first thing you want to do is to take EVERYTHING out of your garage. Literally everything. Car, junk, trash, stuff you need\u2026 get it all outside into the driveway or onto your lawn and leave your garage totally empty. Then you should start to sort everything you\u2019ve just taken out into two piles, one for things that you want to keep and one for things that you\u2019ve been meaning to throw away or just forgot about. Throw those things away right now. Dispose of chemicals like paint safely, but just get it out of there forever.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">With your garage empty, you should sweep and vacuum the floor and dust the corners. If it\u2019s a nice day, you could even hose down the floor! If you\u2019re feeling super adventurous, consider applying an epoxy garage floor kit. It\u2019s a lot of work and a lot of waiting, but it\u2019s worth it if you\u2019re looking for a really serious makeover.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">With the space clean, it\u2019s time to take a critical look at your current storage solutions. If you don\u2019t have shelves or wall storage, consider getting some! It\u2019s a great space-saving hack to store things vertically. You can even store bikes on wall racks, which saves a TON of space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Finally, get everything back into your garage, organizing as you go. You\u2019ll probably spot some things that you thought you wanted to keep but are really junk that you can just go ahead and throw away. You don\u2019t need that in your life. When everything\u2019s back in place (or has found a new home), park your car back inside!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row blog_row\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row blog_row\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row blog_row\">\n<div id=\"featured_video\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"cta\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngernissan.com\/searchnew.aspx?Model=Versa+Note \"><button class=\"cta_button\"> Fit A Versa Note Into Your Life!<\/button><\/a><\/div>\n<div id=\"social-media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fredericknissan\/\"><img id=\"find-us-live\" src=\"https:\/\/clients.oomdo.com\/blog_dev\/images\/find-us.png\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; How much of your spring cleaning have you gotten done so far?
