Outdoor Spring Cleaning

Written by Flexshopper

Ahhh, Spring. It’s a time of renewal: flowers blooming, birds singing, and it is also time for cleaning. Often, when we think of spring cleaning, we think of deep cleaning the kitchen or going through our closets. More importantly, however, can be your outdoor space: your patio, your garage, and even outdoor storage. At FlexShopper, we can help with that! We offer affordable weekly payments so that you can get the things you need now.

Your garage is a great place to start. The first thing you should do is decide if all of the items in your garage need to stay there. Start by labeling three bins: Toss, Donate, Save.

The things that might go into the Toss bin are broken items or any item that is unusable. Perhaps you have been holding on to the drill you got for your first apartment. It really never worked right. Add it to the Toss bin and replace it with a new one! Getting something new doesn’t have to break the bank. For example, you can get a Dewalt 20V Drill/Driver for a mere $6 per week¹.

The Donate bin should be filled with items that you can no longer use, but someone else can. There are many charities that will gladly accept these items. Or maybe you have a friend or family member that could use it. One example might be your child’s bike. As kids grow, they will need to get a larger bike. You can find bikes from FlexShopper for as little as $5 per week¹ such as a Monster High Street/Dirt Bike. And what about your bike? Are you ready for an upgrade? FlexShopper has a 14 speed Libero road bike for $19 per week¹!

The Save bin is for all of the things that you want to keep but just haven’t been able to get organized. Now might be the time to install those shelves for storage. You can choose from some of the shelving in FlexShopper’s extensive offering, or design your own. This might be a great time to invest in some of those tools that you have been wanting (from circular saws to nailers). For example, for only $5 weekly¹, you can get a Black and Decker 20 Volt Drill and Home Tool set. This battery-powered drill kit includes 68 hand tools and accessories and a carrying bag for easy portability and storage.

If you have a patio or deck, or maybe an apartment balcony, there are two things you always think about:

  1. Where do I put my grill?
  2. Where do I put everything else?

Outdoor storage for items like water hoses and cans, plant food and other fertilizer, flower pots, outdoor furniture cushions, is essential. Start, just like you did in the garage, by sorting what is there. Get rid of the broken furniture and stained cushions. Maybe they are too large for your space or don’t seat enough people. You can replace it easily by going to FlexShopper and ordering a patio furniture set that is perfect for you. By the time you get your outdoor spring cleaning done, it will probably have arrived. For smaller spaces, check out the 3 Piece Sunjoy Bistro set for only $7 per week¹. For larger spaces and budgets, we like the Cabrillo Outdoor 5-piece Square Dining Set for $22 weekly¹.

FlexShopper also has a large selection of deck boxes. You can place them on your deck or patio to store items that you do not want exposed to the elements. One of our favorites is the Keter Eden storage bench for only $6 per week¹. You can easily store your items, plus have an extra seat for your company!

Now that everything has its place on your deck or patio, what about that grill? Of course, the first thing is to look at what you have, if anything. If it is time for an upgrade, FlexShopper has all styles of both gas and charcoal grills available at affordable weekly payments. Which type is best for you? If you are unsure, you can find answers to your questions here. Our grills are perfect for whatever style or type you choose. Short of space? Try our Coleman NXT Lite Standup Propane Grill. It is foldable, portable, and only $10 per week¹.

If you prefer a more traditional grill, how about the Napoleon Rogue 4 burner Gas Grill? This grill is top of the line! It has a main cooking area of 425 inches and the infrared side burner lets you cook up side dishes while the rest of the meal is cooking. If charcoal is more your thing, how about the Weber Deluxe Charcoal Grill, at only $21 weekly¹? With this grill, there is a one-touch igniter that lights your charcoal with the touch of a button.

Your yard may need special attention when it comes to springtime cleaning and preparation. Seeding, fertilizing, pruning, planting and mowing are probably all on your agenda. Do you have the tools you need to get your lawn and yard in tip top shape for Spring? A Sun Joe Cordless Chain Saw might be just the ticket! Further, you can rent to own for a low $10 per week¹. Or to get the garden at its best, FlexShopper has the Martha Stewart Electric Garden Tiller for only $7 per week¹. To clean up your leaves, try our Sun Joe iON Cordless 3-in-1 Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher for a mere $8 weekly¹.

Additionally, you are going to need a place to store all of your equipment. FlexShopper has all sizes and compositions of storage sheds to get you organized. From the Keter Ace Outdoor Storage Shed at $10 weekly¹ to Keter Oakland Outdoor Duotech Storage Shed at $51 weekly¹, you are sure to find the one that is right for you. Or try the Goplus outdoor storage locker. It is constructed from durable and solid fir wood. It is weather-and-rust resistant and designed to withstand the harsh elements. Five shelves allow you to create the perfect storage area to meet your requirements and make your items more organized. Perfectly designed for garden tools, lawn care equipment, pool supplies and more. With payments of $11 per week¹, you will own this locker in a year, but will enjoy it for years to come.

Spring cleaning may be a lot of work, but it is necessary to start something anew. The more you get done early in the spring, the longer you have to enjoy all of your outdoor spaces. FlexShopper can help you start anew, with their easy lease to own¹ program. Check us out today!

1 If you are approved for a lease this is your estimated weekly lease payment. On this site, we use the terms "lease," "lease agreement," "rental-purchase agreement" and "agreement" the same. (We usually use the term "Lease.") Under your Lease, you can: (a) weekly, biweekly, or monthly payments or exercise an Early Purchase Option pursuant to your payment offer (not applicable in FL, NC and TX) and some restrictions may apply in CA to acquire Ownership of the rented goods or (b) rent the goods for at least the initial term and then end the lease when you want by making all required payments and returning the goods. In NC, the final payment required to purchase the rented goods will be an amount greater than 10% of the Cash Price. If you are approved for a loan the weekly payment is only an estimate. Please review the actual terms in your loan agreement if you are approved. Your rates, terms and payment schedule are subject to approval pursuant to underwriting criteria and may vary by state. FlexShopper provides offers for Lease to Own Options, however, we do not make any loan or credit decisions and are not representative, brokers or agents for any Lenders.

3 If approved by FlexShopper customers that reside in Florida, Texas and North Carolina, the Cash Price is the price we charge for a cash sale of the item. The Cash Price may be higher than the cash price you would pay if you were to purchase the item directly from the merchant shipping the merchandise on FlexShopper and/or affiliates behalf. If approved by another payment option provider the cash price is the invoice amount of the item excluding taxes, shipping and other fees.

5 Good credit is not necessary but not everyone with bad credit is approved. Our goal is to help consumers with not so perfect credit get goods they want through a payment offer that works for you.

7 An initial payment or security deposit and/or payment may be required before fulfillment.

8 If approved by FlexShopper customers that reside in Florida, Texas and North Carolina you will own the item(s) and not have to pay any additional amount if you pay the full Cash Price (the Cash Price is the price we charge for a cash sale of the item (or $50 more than the price the merchant you select charges) plus sales taxes and may be higher than the price you would pay if you were to purchase the item(s) directly; if you rent multiple items at the same time, we reduce the Cash Price (and increase the Cost of Rental) by $50 for the second and each subsequent item you rent, which makes it less expensive to purchase the items before the end of the term of the Lease). After 90 days, you also have an Early Purchase Option that allows you to own your item(s) for less. Simply refer to the table in your Lease to look up the Early Purchase Option amount after each payment date. If approved by another payment option provider please refer to the terms and conditions of your agreement.

9 All lease/loan decisions and rates and terms are subject to approval pursuant to underwriting criteria related to the applicant’s credit quality. Rates and terms may also vary depending upon the state where you reside.
