We want to spend more time outside now that spring has arrived and summer is on its way. When we have a clean, clutter-free outdoor garden, our time outside is much more pleasant and serene.
Many of us have a variety of “things” in our yards, decks, patios, and other outside spaces in order to relax. Decluttering our outdoor garden will make them easier to maintain and allows us to utilize them more.
An outdoor garden can grow clogged and untidy throughout the year. Since these spaces aren’t in our main living area, it’s easy just to open the door to your outdoor garden storage boxes and toss them in.
Organize your storage facilities into zones to keep clutter at bay. Clean and clutter-free living spaces are more inviting, pleasant, and peaceful. You can also invite company over too for an outdoor picnic or grill.
We all know this applies to our indoor areas. Still, many of us lose sight of the fact that an outdoor garden can become just as cluttered, limiting our ability to host lavish dinner parties or simply relax on the patio at the end of the day.
When we declutter and spruce up our outdoor garden spaces, they become more appealing and functional, so if you have too much stuff cluttering up your backyard.
Tips To Declutter Your Outdoor Garden
Start With The Basics
When beginning to clean your outdoor garden, there are a few things that seem redundant but are actually really important!
Get the most important job done first, and you’ll have a better idea of how much storage space you have to work with to keep the rest of your landscape tidy.
Gardening tools and accessories, outdoor toys, and garden furniture are likely to be stored in your shed or storage boxes. Take everything out and sort it into those categories, tossing out everything that is broken or won’t be used again.
Excess items can be donated to charity stores or sold/gifted locally or online, and garbage can be heaped up ready to be sent to the dump or recycling center.
Return the contents to the shed or storage box in an orderly manner, allowing as much room as possible for extra stuff so that you can quickly access what’s currently in there.
Use labeled storage bins for smaller hand tools or products like slug pellets, plant food, or compost, and put hooks to the walls to hang larger tools like spades and hoes.
