Before: Cluttered Basement
At 20 by 20 feet, the garage holds a lot of stuff, including holiday decorations, toys and tools, but now they can't even fit in the family car! Before they trade in the minivan for a Mini Cooper, organizer Liz Witts signs on to help them reclaim their space and get organized once and for all.
