Garage Cleanout in Shellman Bluff, GA

Around Shellman Bluff the garage is where the fishing life gets stored, and there’s often a shed next to it doing the same job. Sheds and garages full of gear are a big part of what this end of McIntosh County needs cleared out.

Over toward Julienton it might be a newer house beside an older family place, with the garage holding gear from people who have been coming down for generations. That kind of garage gets sorted carefully. If something turns up that looks like it matters, a photo album or papers or an old tackle box somebody’s granddaddy used, we stop and ask rather than guess.

People here tell you where they live by the road or the landing, not a subdivision name, and that’s all we need to find you. Tell us where the place is and send a few pictures.

No pre-sorting needed. The sort happens with you on the day, and there’s always a let-me-think-about-it pile. That’s normal, and we don’t rush it.

Tools and gear that still work get set aside to offer for donation instead of going straight on the truck. The keep pile goes back in neatly, shelves wiped where it makes sense, and the floor gets swept before we leave.

Let us know about any propane tanks when you send photos, so we can figure out the right way to handle them.

Send us a few photos and tell us what you need removed. We’ll take it from there.

Working tools, furniture and gear in decent shape may go to organizations we work with, such as HART here in McIntosh County, and they decide what they accept.

The McIntosh County landfill can’t take electronics, so electronics from the garage usually go to Broadhurst, which takes certain broken electronics.

Rusted bike frames, old shelving and other metal usually go to scrap recycling, often SA Recycling in Brunswick. A garage fridge or freezer usually goes there too, for refrigerant recovery.

The rest goes where it properly belongs.
