Sell or Donate Extra Garage-Bound Goods

Once you’ve cleaned the garage, you might have a lot of stuff sitting in the driveway that you don’t need or want to put back on the shelves. Why not kill two birds with one stone? Put price tags on anything you don’t want and have a garage sale. At the end of the day, box up anything that’s still outside and unwanted and call ClothingDonations.org for a pickup. A truck will come at the designated time and take all of that stuff away, leaving your newly cleaned garage uncluttered and easy to maintain — and helping fund veterans’ programs.

A Top-to-Bottom Scrubdown for the Garage

When was the last time you gave the garage a good cleaning? Chances are it’s been a while, and there’s no better time than the dead of summer. Pick a sunny day, and begin by taking everything out, Tidy.com says. Then, start at the top with the cobwebs on the ceiling and work your way down to the floor. Dust all surfaces, wipe down the walls and sweep — and when that’s done, scrub the floor with soap, water and a hose, or give it a good powerwash. When you’re done, the garage will be so clean that you might not want to move all that extra stuff back in!

Garage Organization

With kids riding bikes and playing outdoors, it’s easy to let your garage get cluttered! Make sure you have a specific spot for your children to park their bikes or rollerblades, and also make sure that all of their games, toys, and sports equipment have designated shelf space in your garage. A clean garage allows you to find different things more easily and quickly if you’re in a hurry!

Ready to ride?

‘Tis the season for family bike rides to grab some ice cream or some other quick treat. But, like anything else, kids outgrow bikes. When you bring home a new bike, we’ll gladly take the smaller, gently used bike off your hands. Your donation helps fund our veterans programs and will also brighten another child’s summer vacation!

Gone fishing or golfing!

With the warmer, sunnier weather upon us, many of you have probably already hit the golf course or headed out to your favorite fishing spot. If your kids have outgrown their golf clubs, golf shoes or fishing gear, don’t throw them away or leave them to collect dust in your garage一donate them to us! Simply put these possessions in a box marked “for donation.” Then visit ClothingDonations.org to schedule a time for us to come pick it up!
