For many homeowners that are lucky enough to have a basement, you know how quickly that basement can become an extension of your drunk drawer.

Another one to throw down in the depths of the basement never to be seen again. Pretty soon, you have a basement full of stuff and don’t know what to do with it all. Mickey’s Carting is here to talk about some things that you should get rid of right now from your cluttered basement.
Get Rid of These Things in Your Basement, Now
There are many things that can accumulate in a basement. It is important that you get rid of things every now and then or else it will end up taking over. Here are some things that you should throw away right now, if they are found in your basement.
– Renovation Scraps: Whenever you are completing a renovation on your home, it is tempting to save the scraps just in case you might need them should something get damaged down the road. However, that kind of stuff can accumulate quickly and start to become a burden to hold on to. If you have scraps from renovations done in years past, now is the right time to throw them away.
– Storage Boxes: Sometimes, you might save boxes for a rainy day. You never know, you might have gifts to wrap someday, a move that could happen, or things that you would like to move to storage. Whatever the reason, people tend to keep broken down cardboard boxes in their basements quite often. If this is you, this is the right time to let those boxes go.
– Other People’s Stuff: You might be lucky enough to have friends that are comfortable enough with you to ask if they can store some things in your basement. If this is the case and they have left stuff in your basement far past when they said they would, it might be time to throw it away. Give them the opportunity to come get it, of course. But if they don’t come take it back, to the garbage it goes.
– Old Cookware: When you replace your cookware with a new set, you may keep a few pieces that you used often and might need in the future. However, rarely does anyone use old cookware that they keep in their basement. It’s time to throw it out.
