RS_Clean Out Garage

Declutter
First things first…. Take all items out of the garage and start to sort them of what you do and do not need. To help with the removal of items, we have an assorted dollies to help get the job done fast & not break your back. It is best to create 3 piles: Trash, Charity, and Keep. If you have a lot of items to remove, then you want to rent a dump trailer or utility trailer in order to dispose of all the items and take them to the landfill or take to your favorite charity.
Cleaning and Floor Maintenance
Start by sweeping the entire garage and brush out all the corners of the garage. Rent a blower to remove all the small particles that the broom just couldn’t pick up. Now, it is time to give your garage a good cleaning with a pressure washer. Pressure washing the floor can help you see if there is any damage or crack that you may need to repair. If your garage floor has become battered and bruised over the years, now is the perfect time to fix them. Rental Stop has all the tools you will need to repair your concrete as well. Check them out here.
Inspect and Paint Your Walls
Time to inspect all the walls of the garage and make sure there are no holes and cracks that need to be repaired. Once you repair the walls, it is time to put a fresh coat of paint. Our airless paint sprayer can get the job done fast.
Time to Organize and Label
Finally, it is time to get everything in its place. Organizing your garage can save you plenty of time and money. Yes, money… you will be able to find all your items and not have to go buy what you already have in your garage. It is always helpful to place all the cleaning supplies in one spot, tools in another. Time to invest in things like shelves, cabinets, hooks and bins to contain all your items.
Many garages can have odd shapes to them so if you need to make your own shelves or cabinets, Rental Stop has all the tools and saws to help get the job done.

3 Steps for A Perfect Fall Planting

Backyard Garden

Did you build a backyard garden during COVID & are now wondering what you need to do for the upcoming Fall? Remember these 3 steps for a Perfect Fall Planting:
1. Prepping the Soil
Renting a tiller is the easiest way to turn the soil and provide nitrogen for a new garden. Tilling helps break up clumps in hard compacted soil, & it will also break up roots to kill some weeds. Prepackaged garden soil or organic compost can be tilled into your soil to add nutrients. If the soil is excessively damp or has high clay content, consider tilling in Screened Sand from our Rental Stop Landscape Materials Department.
Rental Stop’s 2 HP or 5 HP Front Tine Tiller is a perfect choice for the backyard garden. Need something a little smaller, rent our 35 cc Tiller with Kick Stand to till those smaller gardens.
Make sure you add some slow-release Fertilizer with our Fertilizer spreader!
2. New Mulch
Add Mulch to your Garden. A dark compost is ideal during these fall months. Check out Rental Stop’s Landscape Materials to help choose the best Mulch for your garden.
3. Pick the Right Plants!
Rotating your crops is always best! Root, Fruit, Bean and Green is the typical order. Make sure you know your harvest time! Checking the days until harvest is crucial, so you can cook and eat your delicious crop with fully grown and full of delicious flavor when you know you will want to eat them.

6 Tips for Prepping your Lawn for Late Summer / Early Fall

Tips_Prep for Fall

6 steps for your lawn this late summer and early fall in Texas. Visit our Lawn and Garden category on the website for all your rental needs.
1. Mow
Continue to mow your lawn in Texas throughout the fall until we have dropped below 50 consistently. You need to maintain the 1- 3” cuts until the temperatures drop & then you can cut shorter for your final cuts of the fall. Mowing in the fall helps with your leaves to a minimum & produces a nutritious mulch for your lawn.
2. Weed
Mowing is the best for weed control, but sometimes weeds will sprout from time to time. It is best to Spot treat any of those pesky weeds with a Hand sprayer.
No need to water your lawn daily! Water a couple times a week… remember your lawn needs a little time to dry between watering. A healthy lawn needs deep roots, so you need to make sure that you are watering enough to reach these deep roots.
Aeration pulls soil plugs from your lawn & helps provide water, Oxygen & nutrients your lawn needs to reach the roots.
Make sure that you are using the right Ratios for your type of grass. Read the back of your fertilizer for more information on this. Sometimes less is more with fertilizers! Rental Stop has an All-New Ride-On Fertilizer for those larger lawns you need to maintain or we have the Whirly Fertilizer Spreader.
Here in Texas, it is best to reseed in early/mid fall. Your seeds are going to more successful with the cooler damper weather.
