We bought EVERYTHING left behind on this property! what will we find?!?

I bought the ENTIRE contents of a home! with only two weeks to empty it, will I find treasure and get it done? or run out of time and bust!? watch the whole series to find out!

[@ChristynaPatterson]

So excited that these types of videos are back. My favorite, speaks to the organizer in me

[@anniewardlow9297]

Ditto!

[@treasuredlifestyle]

Why do we love these house clean out/hoard videos? I was with you on the Potter House. Great content. Be careful Alex and take care of yourself.

[@Crazyguy_123MC]

I think it’s because it gives us a view into somebody’s life. It’s fun to see what others thought was cool enough to keep around.

[@3SpoiledDonkeys]

I'm really exited about another house cleanout! It looks messy, but long time viewers have seen Way Worse!

[@chasetonga]

Because it makes us feel better about what we are hanging on to. As long as we don’t feel like we are hanging on to as much as others are hanging on to, then we can justify what we are keeping.

[@cathifamjourney469]

Compared to Mary's house this one is spotless with everything in its place. Lol

[@AmericanAbstract5205]

Because we are TREASURE hunting!!

[@ashleycox432]

These are my favourite videos of yours, it was the house clearances (particularly the hoards) that were the reason I discovered the channel. great to see another series.

[@judithspencer9345]

Close the bottom drawer of the jewelry box!

[@Emmuzka]

An exiting project! you could name this series a "House of Clocks"!

[@nancyhope8395]

And plants! The garden of time house😀

[@nancyfisher2128]

Yes, you definitely need to name this house so we can keep up with the episodes please!

[@shaaka]

Really a great reminder that we don't actually need so much "stuff".

[@reginagibson3847]

You can say that again

[@eveliamarroquin383]

Exacto!

[@Cassie00111]

yes! Reminds me to clear out periodically.

[@elementgypsy]

I saw about 12 gas cans. Every hoe and shovel you can imagine. Beautiful home and property.

[@W4iteFlame]

Yes. Can not agree more with it

[@Jenn-98]

Those orange chairs are the bomb! They would be well made and are back in style. They were just old fashioned when I was a kid, now they are “vintage”

[@RainyRaven]

Back to the old days!! 🎉

[@draganakrueger109]

Yea 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@amandarogers4737]

Woo hoo!

At least this isn't a horder house. Well not so much.

[@donnasmith9939]

My fav!

[@tatr]

Two LOL moments: When you thought the music box was done and it started back up, and when you went into the garage and said, "Ok, don't get distract--Ooh!" when you saw the snow blower. hahah Looks fun!

[@My_Op]

i red you're coment bifore waching the vedio lol it was funy nowing thre script lol

[@My_Op]

abit later "skwirel" when he saw the tier lol

[@Tipper1941]

Oh dear, it makes me so sad to see a house left behind with all those memories. I’m glad you will find another life for all those lovely things.❤😢

[@jenaemarieAZ]

I am ready to get rid of my furniture & belongings right now and I am barely 60. There comes a time when one is just done with it all & need a clean break.

[@nellebuhrmann5343]

I always feel very sad to think wat kind of a crises forces someone or a family to leave their home and stuff.😢😢

[@nellebuhrmann5343]

I would have been so upset if people who come in to help just threw everything away 😖😖😢No, no, no.

[@johndavis3921]

I like the message on the pillow at 11:12, "It's my mess, and I love it." It encapsulates the situation Alex must now address.

[@alp-1960]

Digging through other people's stuff is so much fun. My favorite videos.

[@barnett25]

Agree, but just a warning wait until the people move out or at least give permission before you do it. The police didn't care how much fun I was having for some reason.

[@ClaudiaMiller]

Digging through other people's stuff vicariously it the best!

[@jhn146]

I think the music box song is just "Somewhere My Love" (Lara's Theme)" from the 1965 MGM film Doctor Zhivago. It started playing when you opened the bottom drawer of the jewelry box, so it will probably stop by closing it again.

[@lockman004]

I'm glad to see Alex back to helping with clean outs, but at the same time I have a twinge of sadness for the elderly people who have had to leave so much of their prior lives behind. I know we all age and give up our treasures but it's still a bit sad. Hopefully the left overs can provide furnishings for half a dozen Ukrainian families.

[@kathleenmartin7498]

I agree. I love a great bargain, but I get too sad going to estate sales!

[@dawnmartin4447]

I felt the same way. It looks like my house. But what I figure is that I can enjoy all of the stuff while I am here and then it can all be sold to give the money to my kids. They only have to keep what they want and walk away from the rest. Leave that for some collector to enjoy. That's how treasures are found.

[@charlottestevens9352]

I guess they took what was special/important to them

[@leahmonahan9933]

The gardener in me makes me sad…..

[@rtsyfrtsy924]

My only experience with this type of thing was with my mom. She was was absolutely not a hoarder in any way, but as she got older the house, the yard and two outbuildings, and all they contained became more and more of a burden to her and caused her a lot of anxiety. I think the stress of it all caused her to lose attachment to most of it. When she went into assisted living, it was like 10 years fell off her. She had everything she needed, was able to take a few pieces of furniture and artwork to make her room feel like home and was happier than we had seen her in years. She told us to take what we wanted and donate everything that was left. So...it's not always sad. I know that having the burden of house and property taken off her shoulders added years to my mother's life.

[@janicec1196]

Yay, another house clearing! That knee lever for the sewing machine doesn't make it go. It's a hands free way of raising and lowering the presser foot. Thanks for another interesting adventure!

[@janeysiegrist5061]

I love these whole property clean outs. Stitch Witchery is an iron in basting material. These folks had very good taste.

[@georgeburke6336]

Hi Alex. I haven't watched you in a long time. I opened up KZbin and your video was the 1st one. So glad it was there, that way I can start watching you again.

[@jillymills1]

Same here, this is what I love watching ❤

[@kathytappero7179]

Love these clear out videos, but always worry a little about you. Take care of your back and wear a mask when you need it! Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@KariFellWeaves]

The weaving loom will get you a few hundred $'s, especially if all the extras come with it. Look for the wooden bench that goes with it as that will add a lot of value. I also noticed what looked like a warping mill in the garage. To maximize your profits, maybe a member of a local weavers guild can come in and help you identify all the weaving bits you may find throughout the house.

[@justmeiniowa]

Alex never does anything to "maximize" his profits. He donates or tosses perfectly sellable stuff and takes every thing to Kaster auction house where a large majority of the items don't go for near what he could get for them with a little effort. i understand his fast nickle over a slow dime philosophy but still.

[@KariFellWeaves]

@@justmeiniowa Ya, I just hate to see important items "orphaned".

[@gigicostlow4414]

@@justmeiniowa He does that not only to sell faster but also because of the extra room he would need to hold onto all of those sellable things, especially when doing a clean out like this one. A lot of more modern furniture and other stuff never sells for much and/or it sits for a long time before it sells. It's not worth hanging onto things like that. It's better to give it to someone that could use it and get it out of your way. I don't know if he does this but sometimes when you donate stuff you can use that as a tax write off up to so much.

[@justmeiniowa]

@@gigicostlow4414 I know this but I still disagree with using Kastners exclusively and he has stated in videos he does NOT get any tax write offs for donations.

[@andreabryant6]

Yes, I gasped when he came through that door! What a find for some lucky fiber arts person.

[@richwhitaker1506]

Alexander takes the plunge once again. Looking forward to seeing this happen.

What a charming Tudor-style house, complete with an English cottage garden. These folks must have really enjoyed their lovely home. It's great that it's pretty clean, too. Happy sorting, I'll be along for the ride.

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Dear Archbold family. 👍👌👏 Back to the roots at last! Looks already like a really great purchase. Congratulations!🎉 What an impressive house on a fantastic property. Looks like a dream to me. Nothing looks cheap, everything seems to be really good quality stuff (for instance the hand truck/sack barrow). Everything is even pretty clean. Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards, luck and especially health to all involved.

[@veragamsky1734]

These are the ones i love to watch. They took all they could when they moved and left soooo much behind. Will look forward to seeing what Alex finds.

[@99999janice]

And this is why I’ve gotten rid of everything now. Never want anybody to go through my stuff after I’m done.

[@elizabethliska5377]

I grew up on a farm. Helped both my grandparents clean up their farms in my 20's and 1 moved soon after. After my parents retired and moved to town then a retirement residence all that was left fit in a small u haul and minimal furniture. Less stress and going thru items is best. I hope to downsize and get rid alot of items when I retire as I do not want to leave too much for my children.

[@bluize567]

​@@elizabethliska5377I'm doing that now, a bit at a time. I don't want my son to have to deal with it after I'm gone.

[@Gigi30107]

Yes....this is sad and depressing

[@amyk5260]

I cleaned out my house about 6 months ago. Thought I got rid of so much, but when we packed to move, I couldn't believe how much more stuff we didn't need. Very careful about what we buy now.

[@anunmaker]

For the spinning wheel and loom…they look to be functional tools. You might try to contact a local spinning or weaving guild, for assistance in pricing/ selling these tools.

[@pidgetheobscure494]

The loom especially, is a very expensive item.

[@witatter1]

The castle spinning wheel, if intact and working, could easily sell for $350-$400 usd.

[@anunmaker]

@@witatter1 I think also saw a Saxony style/traditional style wheel in the bedroom.

[@amadvm9]

Yes! That loom would make a local fiber artist very happy. It could definitely be sold for a decent amount as it looks to be in fairly good shape.

[@willowhouse2]

There's even nice decorating pieces for your yard . The iron bench will look so pretty sitting underneath the tree on the back lot a lot of those items for the outdoors would be so pretty

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yay! Judging from the other comments, I’m not the only one thrilled about this series! I’ve so missed the “bought the whole house” type series! Thanks for bringing these types of videos back, Alex!

[@celieneohara521]

Close the drawer on the jewelry box!

[@susandeen2835]

Yes please

[@marystrenke3050]

😂😂😂😂I love it!!! Sounds like the theme song for Dr.Zhivago. I gave Mom and dad a snow globe with that song. Mom hated it 😂Also the cuckoo clock I gave her....

[@micbarker6256]

​@@marystrenke3050yes, it's "Lara's Theme" from the 1965 film

[@cosand2007]

The music didn’t start until you pulled out the bottom drawer!

[@barbfrank917]

A man bought a music box for his wife's birthday, thought it played happy birthday, turned out it played "the old gray mare she ain't what she use to be ". Doesn't pertain, just funny 😊

[@chelseamorning608]

I love those orange chairs! New in the box, how incredible. Best of luck to you with this cleanout.

[@Bottlemanbob]

I'm sure this clear out took place awhile ago but I look forward to seeing what treasures are in every nook and cranny 😊

[@Elyse1222]

That house is really cool. The layout is interesting. This series will be fun! Thanks for sharing

[@jessmattina2430]

Really excited about this one. Love the living room rug. Looks like you will have a lot of great sellable items.

[@gavinhaywood]

Thank goodness the old style videos are back.

[@Sibes3]

Looks like a Heartland Stove. My dream stove! lol

[@Jean2235177]

I found these house clearing videos quite fascinating.

[@nancycox204]

I always imagine what Alex would say if he was walking around to clear out my house. Tends to motivate me to declutter my home.

[@carolynnixon7095]

Yea! Love these kinds of videos. As you said, if you're saving something for a rainy day, use it. Thanks for sharing the adventure!

[@Seelieness]

I don't know if you have cleared everything yet but please consider leaving some basic gardening equipment for the new owners. When we bought our house we'd moved from an apartment and had nothing and were so grateful to have almost everything we needed to do the upkeep.

[@BrightestBlessings7899]

That rooster dish you found on the porch in the box, I have the teapot that matches and I did used to have the whole set. Got them from Sears! The music box has been waiting for you for an age but it sounds spooking because it is likely full of dust. It is lovely.

[@kaye-q1k]

I love when you do whole property clean out.

[@jericharlton1229]

I've missed your clean out videos. The adventure of the hunt. Yes!

[@JulieCollins-x4q]

Congrats on the house clearing! It has been a long time! Will enjoy watching future videos! Hope to see more of Melissa working in the kitchen!🥰

[@rbhare7667]

While I have no idea of the facts behind your recent clean out, it saddens me so much to see how a life time is reduced to trash and fodder. Been thru this a couple of times with family members, but it is still so sad to see this realization for any human being.

[@einerreklov4304]

NOOO! Use the wasp spray in the evening when the queen and her workers are in the nest for the night, unless Canadian wasps go to sleep later than Florida wasps. Love your cleanout videos!

[@gigicostlow4414]

That's what I do. I use a flashlight to locate it then point it away then spray and quickly turn off the light and walk away. They don't like to fly at night because they don't see well when it's dark. I haven't been stung yet doing it this way.

[@pamelagivens677]

So excited for the house clean out!! Back to the good old days of Curiosity Incorporated!!

[@jilbertb]

The "decoy" is a Loon, it's a very nice one. More of a decoration, not used in hunting. The "bar" for the sewing machine lifts the foot up and down, not for the speed. Love the big steamer chest across from it. And the black "oriental" (probably polyester, not wool) rugs. The weaving loom is a very nice one too. Looks like the "volunteers" threw everything in the garage, not a dumpster. Seems like they bought a new red plastic gas can every time they bought gas. There were atleast 10! Looks like fun Alex! Thanks!

[@cathpeterson1944]

[@cindyz2933]

Wow! Lot's of interesting stuff, and work.

[@bridiesmith5110]

It was watching these videos like the ones from the potter house etc, that convinced me to get rid of ‘stuff’. Lots went to the charity shops, a lot to the dump. When we moved, we filled two skips. When we moved and arrived at our new house, we still found lots of stuff to go to the charity shop.

[@LaurieDean59]

You must have mad organizing skills, I would be overwhelmed 😂 I'm guessing it was a sweet old couple who loved to stay busy with projects... just not decluttering projects. I know this was from a couple months ago, but I didn't get to see them yet... so sorry for the late reply. Lost you when I lost my old phone and account, so I have lots of catching up to do it seems 😊 Love from Tennessee USA ❤
