How do I clean my garage?

It is always best to keep on top of your cleaning, especially in an area like a garage.  It is very easy to let clutter pile up and for things to get out of hand. Making a concerted effort to consistently clean and declutter your garage will go a long way!

Some quick tips on cleaning your garage include:

  • Put away items in the correct place right away instead of leaving them out
  • Do a weekly sweep of the garage floor
  • Utilize hooks and other methods to hang gear like bikes and tools
  • Teach your kids to put away anything they use in the garage when they are done with it
  • Keep your trash cans and recycling bins clean and organized
  • Do a semi annual run through of everything in your garage – donate or throw away anything that you no longer use
  • Always strive to be able to walk through your garage comfortably – if you need to manuever around items you probably have too much in there

How long should a garage cleaning take?

This can vary greatly, but with consistent cleaning, should take no more than 15 minutes per week.  If your garage is in need of a deep cleaning and decluttering, try to set aside at least 2 hours to get things back to normal.  Every garage is different, and depending on what is stored inside of it, the length of time will be a bit different.

Factors to consider include:

  • The size of your garage is the biggest factor in cleaning time.  Cleaning a 3 car garage is naturally going to take longer than a small one car garage.  Also the amount of clutter and gear will determine how long and easy it is to clean the space.
  • The state of your garage. A garage that has not been cleaned for a long time will take longer to get into a good state.  Focus on decluttering and doing a thorough sweeping to get the garage looking good again.
  • Having a helper will make cleaning your garage space much quicker. 

Tips to clean a garage fast?

Cleaning quickly and efficiently can be a tough job, but will be made easier with an extra hand or two.  If you have kids, you can learn all about motivating them to clean and how you can make cleaning fun for them to assit in your routine garage cleaning. 

It is always best to not rush through cleaning, but the more you do it, the quicker and easier it will get to maintain the garage in a good clean state.
