Outdoor Clean Up Tips

Across Ireland, homeowners are preparing for a far more sociable summer in comparison to 2020, and since gardens are the safest place to meet, many people have been choosing to give them an upgrade. However, a garden renovation project (or even a simple garden clean up) can cause a lot of mess, which can be difficult to deal with if you aren’t well prepared.

If you’re looking to get your garden summer ready, take a look at these top tips for an efficient garden declutter that isn’t going to break the bank.

1) Trim, Tame & Tidy

Keeping shrubs, overgrown trees and even the lawn trimmed can make a huge difference to the look and feel of your garden. The first step towards a summer-ready space is to trim and tame any large bushes to make room for seating areas, colourful flowers or more lawn space. Don’t worry if you feel you’ve gone overboard with the clippers – it’ll always grow back!

2) Declutter Your Garden & Shed

There’s no use giving your garden the VIP treatment if you’re going to neglect the garden shed – if you’re committing to a declutter, you have to take the plunge if you want to see a real difference. Plus, sorting out your shed is bound to leave you with plenty of space to store any summer essentials such as barbeque equipment, cushions or children’s toys. Your tidy garden will be far easier to maintain if you have a spacious, accessible storage facility.

3) Deep Clean Your Garden Furniture

Clean garden furniture is vital if you’re planning to host gatherings in your outdoor space this summer. Dust off the cobwebs (literally) and perhaps invest in some decorative cushions for a bright, bold finishing touch. If your furniture has been in storage for some time, you might want to rent a high-pressure washer to make your life a little easier.

4) Prepare Waste Removal

A thorough garden clean up is sure to produce a lot of garden waste, so if you’re hoping for a quick turnaround, make sure you have the facilities prepared to remove it. The last thing you’ll want to deal with is an overflowing bin or piles of waste waiting to be removed – especially if you’re expecting guests.

Having a clean, tidy garden can involve a fair amount of work, but the results will no doubt be worth it. Follow the steps above, but first, make sure you have organised the clean up of any outdoor waste that will be produced. Before you know it, you’ll be relaxing in your beautiful garden with friends and loved ones, just like old times.
