The Complete Garage Cleanout Plan for Poulsbo Homeowners
The garage is the most commonly cluttered space in Poulsbo homes. If yours has become a storage unit you can no longer park in, this plan will help you reclaim it.
Phase 1: Sort Everything
Pull everything out of the garage (weather permitting) and sort into four piles:
- **Keep** — items you actively use or need
- **Sell** — items with resale value
- **Donate** — usable items you no longer need
- **Remove** — broken, outdated, or worthless items
Be honest. If you haven't used it in two years, it's probably not a "keep."
Phase 2: Sell What You Can
For items with value: - Post on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist - Set a deadline (2 weeks is reasonable) - If it doesn't sell, move it to the donate pile
Phase 3: Donate Usable Items
Kitsap County has donation centers that accept: - Tools and hardware - Sporting goods - Holiday decorations - Small appliances - Furniture and shelving
Phase 4: Call for Professional Removal
For everything in the "remove" pile — plus anything that didn't sell — call Poulsbo Junk Removal. We handle: - Loading from anywhere in your garage - Hauling and disposal - Recycling metals, electronics, and other materials - Sweeping up afterward

Phase 5: Organize What Stays
