1. Perform a Deep Clean
Often, at first glance, you might think that simply cleaning up a few things here and there will be all that it takes to get your basement back into shape. However, this often just results in more clutter if you’re not giving your basement a deep clean. So, empty it out entirely, getting rid of waste and items you want to toss or recycle. Then, get to work giving it a thorough cleaning by sweeping, mopping, and dusting. Also, don’t forget to sweep away any cobwebs hiding in the corner.
2. Rent a Roll-Off Dumpster
Roll-off trash services can make your basement cleaning project much safer and more efficient. If you don’t want all the junk you clean out sitting by the curb for days or weeks until it’s picked up by your local trash services, roll-off trash solutions are ideal. You’ll be able to rent a container that’s the perfect size for the amount of waste you have and easily arrange it to be properly disposed of, rather than having to make trips to the dump or recycling center yourself or relying on local trash services. Also, dumpster rental is eco-friendly and helps ensure your waste winds up in the right place.
3. Take a Close Look Before Cleaning
Once you’ve rented a dumpster, it’s time to assess the state of your basement and get a better idea of how you’re going to clean it, and what needs to be done to remove any clutter or waste in the most efficient manner possible. Often categorizing items can help you get a better idea of the job, so consider what you want to keep, trash, and donate. Box up what you want to keep and move it to another area of your home for the time being. This is a great chance to ask your friends for some help to make the process quicker.
4. Plan Your New Basement Setup
If you want to move things around to make your basement more comfortable, or you’re having it remodeled or redesigned, it’s time to think about what you’d like to do once all that clutter is out of the way. Perhaps your goal is to turn your basement into a playroom, home office, or gym. Imagine the perfect layout and begin planning accordingly.
5. Start Remodeling
Once you’ve gotten your basement spic and span and free of clutter, it’s time to let professionals take over if you’re having it redesigned or remodeled. Since every home is different and you’ll likely have specific needs and expectations, working with a professional who can bring your vision to life is always best.
