Clear the Clutter, Not Your Schedule: The Absolute Guide to Spring Cleaning & Storage

Written By Phil McLendon

Hey there, Memphis neighbors!

Can you feel it? The humidity hasn’t quite hit triple digits yet, the azaleas are blooming, and that West Tennessee breeze is finally blowing through. It can only mean one thing: Spring Cleaning Season is officially here.

Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Phil, I’d rather sit in I-240 traffic at 5:00 PM than spend my Saturday scrubbing baseboards and hauling heavy boxes.”

I hear you! But here’s a secret: Spring cleaning doesn’t have to be a marathon. It’s about making room for the things that matter. Whether you’re looking to reclaim your garage for your car (instead of those holiday decorations) or you’re getting your home “show-ready” to hit the Memphis real estate market, my team and I are here to help you do the heavy lifting—literally.

Step 1: The “Keep, Toss, or Store” Strategy

Don’t just move the mess around. Go room by room. If you haven’t used it since the Grizzlies were in the playoffs last year, it might be time to pack it up!

Keep: The essentials.
Toss/Donate: That old toaster that only burns one side of the bread.
Store: The heirlooms, the winter wardrobe, and the extra furniture you aren’t ready to part with but don’t want to trip over.

Step 2: Pack it Like a Pro

Once you’ve identified the “Store” pile, grab some sturdy boxes. Label them clearly (trust me, “Misc” is the enemy of organization!). If you’re packing up extra china or heavy books, make sure to tape the bottoms securely.

Step 3: Let Absolute Do the Rest!

This is where the magic happens. You don’t need to rent a truck, beg your friends for help, or risk your lower back moving that heavy armoire into a storage unit.

Our Spring Special Service: You do the cleaning; we do the hauling. My expert team will come to your home in Memphis, Collierville, Germantown, or anywhere in the Mid-South. We’ll load up your “Storage” pile with the same care we use for a cross-country move and get it safely tucked away into your storage unit.

You get a clean, breathable home. We do the sweating. It’s a win-win!

Ready to make your home the “Absolute” best it can be?
