Alexanders awesome Archbold family, and friends Do it again!!!!!! You definitely need a home Jacuzzi for your back and the families assorted aches and pains! Cheers, Rik Spector
Feel free to extend these series ...there were so many rooms that we did not see.....we love going through it all. So many unique things in each house.
Yes! I'm wondering what that room between the livingroom and the garage is, and how is it accessed. Of course since Alex isn't showing it for whatever reason it is none of my business . . . (but hasn't stopped me from wondering ;) )
There's nothing left to see the whole house was full of arts and crafts stuff he probably lost his ass on this one between gas and dumping fees and buying hundreds of boxes they should have been paying him to clear the house out definitely wouldn't have payed to do all that work.
Just cleaned out my mom's house when she moved to assisted living and I can tell you that watching these videos really helped me have a mode of operation. First out the trash, second out the charity, third what to keep and what to do with it. Also, I ended up taking blue painter's tape and putting a piece of it on each area that was cleared out. That way, I could see easily my progress and know that I didn't have to keep opening the same cupboard or drawer over and over once it was empty. If it had blue tape on the door, it was empty.
When I'm cleaning out a house I've taken to putting a rubber band or a ribbon around the cabinet door handle so that I know it's empty without opening it
If I am remembering correctly, the glass basket is Anchor Hocking and is an ice bucket. Sells for alright money. I was also thinking that the realtor might like a copy of those papers showing how the house was and that it had been a show piece to show potential buyers.
I love this house clear out. The green glass set is an aperitif set, this is for any type of pre dinner drink you want to serve. Dubonnet and Campari are popular.
Using the product from the house, to pack out the house. Minute Mark 34 you’re packing out breakables to transport to auction, in crates. Earlier you showed a dresser of vintage small linens. When we did this work, we’d use the clean linens (hand towels, t-shirts, etc) to keep the sellable glassware safe in transport. Then once at the destination the “packing” could either become more auction lots, or be bagged for future donations. Vintage T-shirts and fine linens work well to keep glass from clinking in transport and then may have value on their own. 😉
Same crate load brings up a second technique. Under the glass bucket filled with fruit are 2 boxes. You packed them side by side. If you separated them, with glass between (or glass in the crate corners and the boxes in the center), the boxes would keep the glass apart, risking less damage in transit, with no additional packing needed. 😉
Dear bryanhenry... 👍👌👏 You're absolutely right. But unfortunately it's a waste of time telling him that. I've watched even all of his old videos and tried to tell him often myself. Mr. Archbold was, is and will be extremely careless when it comes to packing stuff in boxes. Also when loading the pickup truck and trailer. With just a little bit more effort, damage can be avoided. By the way: Still using always only one hand to unpack/move stuff doesn't help either. 🙈 Best regards, luck and health in particular.
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 I wasn't commenting so much at Alex, as to other viewers who might get into the biz at some point. I've met folks who insisted on packing everything out of an estate or storage unit, like they were putting it in long term storage. Every piece would get papered or bubble wrapped. Too much packing really extends the process, so I've always felt that just a bit more attention, protects most things. For instance, I'd put glassware around the outside of a box or tote, then put something in the middle wrapped in a T-shirt or towel and that one or 2 wrapped items would fill the inevitable loose space and keep the pieces from shifting. The same is true of art. I see a lot of RUclips content creators stack art in shopping carts randomly or stacked in the same direction. But if the frames are simply put front to front and back to back, the sharp metal hanger hardware isn't able to scratch the front of a good frame. Takes no longer to position it that way then stacking it all in one direction. Enjoy your day.
@@brianhenry2385 Yes, you're absolutely right again and I agree. 2) So you didn't see him putting those 3 (or 4?) pictures with the gold frames in a cardboard box? In just the way you described it shouldn't be done? 3) If time would really be an issue in this series, he wouldn't drive things away with the pickup truck bed not fully loaded (and nothing inside the green truck). Or why doing several trips to the dump and/or donation/charity places instead of doing it with a full truck bed plus trailer? Trust your eyes, it's done in this way by purpose. One can be/act way more efficient. But doing it this way is good for video making respectively getting views. Please don't forget: Mr. A. was/is mainly a seller and he does this extremely well/successful. 👍👌👏 Sincerely yours.
Love love LOVE these videos,Alex. I know it’s tiring but so much fun to watch. You know that I started watching RUclips when a good friend of mine told me about your channel,years ago now. I have stopped watching television completely and will spend my last years watching RUclipsrs who love things I love. I am a Dutch grandmother of 4 and I have gone through enough in my life. I trying to enjoy life as much as possible. And you are helping me with that.A great thank you for that,Alex,Melissa,Abigail,Stephen and Jason..and all the relatives and good friends like Josh.🙏🏻🥰❤️
These types of videos are so much fun, I really enjoy them. So surprising the things people leave behind. We bought a cottage, told the elderly seller to take what she wanted, leave what she didn't (we're on an island and it can be difficult and expensive to transport things). We occasionally still find things in the barn that are interesting.
Yesterday, we properly packed all our giant Halloween collection away. After 18 years of doing one of the biggest Halloween Haunt in Ottawa, Ontario, we are selling everything. We already sold 1/5 of it and will sell the rest in Spring, the amount of stuff you collect in so many years is crazy. It will be nice to have our garage and basement back.
If I bought that house with its huge garden I’d be very happy to find tools, fertiliser, that pergola and greenhouse left by the previous owners. Tools, garden implements, wheelbarrow etc are very expensive. I wish every house seller left everything they don’t need in sheds and outhouses.
Oh how I wish you could/would buy this house. I would love to see what you could do to the inside and the WONDERFUL REVITALIZATION that Melissa would do with the gardens!!! Great series!
This is a gorgeous home/acreage!!! With all of the items it almost protected the house! Someone is going to be very lucky!!! Wish it were me! This is my dream home! (Especially the stove!!) Thanks so much for sharing!!!!
The dump they use has an area where people leave stuff and it can be gone thru by others to take so not everything he says is going to the dump is actually getting trashed.
Seeing the home without the furniture and stuff really highlights the "good bones". I can sooooo see this home being snapped up quickly and lovingly restored to its former beauty.
It's a good lesson for all of us to not keep our big homes and all the stuff longer than we can take care of it. It must be hard to live there and see your life's work going to seed.
So much work but you have done a great job sorting and going through everything. Take care of your back. I enjoy it when you give a history of what you find and if it has any value. Always enjoy seeing Melissa and your kids.
My grandparents had a set very similar to the green set you showed. It was for aperitif a small before dinner drink. They got theirs on a trip to Europe but sadly I don't know exactly where.
This cleanout was so much work!!! Compare yourself from the first video to this one. The fatigue is real! Thanks for showing the reality. I greatly enjoy your videos.
I’m enjoying this series of vids Alex. I think the little green glasses and decanter are for Sherry, it was the pre dinner drink of choice back in the day.
Would those benches you tossed actually not sell as it with the house? I’d think those would be nice pieces for the vast gardens they have… The wood is easily replaceable too…
Thank you Alex, I love your channel. I have watched you since the very beginning. The green glass set is definitely for after dinner Liquers, like Crème de Menthe, crème de Cacao, Tia Maria. Amaretto. I’m 70, that was a big thing long ago in the 50’s & 60’s. Love to you & your family from B.C. Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️
All the fabric and pattern finds takes me back to when my sister and I were clearing out the 33 years' worth of accumulated stuff in our parents' home after they died.
Wow, your children have grown up into almost adults now. It's so awesome to see how they've grown since you first started your channel. It makes me feel old. You have one good looking family. That alone is a huge blessing they are all healthy and you are all so close.
That black/grey sewing accessories/spool case that was in the box of materials in the garage is an attachment to the Elna Sewing machine. It slides onto (I don’t what the part of the sewing machine is called) ‘the arm which houses the baseplate and bobbin???’ when the machine is stored away. I have an old Elna sewing machine very similar to that one.
Seems like somebody starting out would like the couch that turns to a bed. I lived on one of those when I first moved out. I was very appreciative that I got it at a yard sale for a price I could afford.
I can’t wait to see what the cook stove goes for! I’m building a small 20x30 house this summer in Kansas and want an old gas stove, a farm sink with two sinks and tilted drain boards on each side, a claw foot tub and butcher blocks… am I dreaming or what?! Love these clean out shows. You got me through the beginning of Covid and a back surgery, Alex!!👍❤️💕
Goodness! I can see the strain in your face and hear the strain in your voice. You are doing a hard job. Thank you for your channel showing the work you do.
luv those Butterick patterns thats a gem of a collection for anyone who sews; any word if this house is being listed with realtors yet, it won’t last long once it does go on the market, its beautiful home
I’m exhausted just watching you. This was a fun series. My ex and I did house clean outs for a property management company when we were first married. It was gross sometimes, but rewarding too.
Yrs ago my hubby collected scrap metal & a real estate friend asked him to clear a house of metal pans , cutlery etc and anything else we found we could keep if we wanted it. There was so many cleaning products it was unbelievable including sealed lge packs of toilet rolls .It was strange that it was such a dirty unkept house but they had so much brand new cleaning products which we kept of course .I don't tink I bought toilet rolls for 2 yrs after cleaning that place out .As for that glass green house you may as well keep & use what you can it's surprizing how much its worth and how much you save. Your doing a great job by the way of this clear out , i'm enjoying the whole episode thanks for the entertainment value , have a lovely day from Sydney Australia.
Alexanders awesome Archbold family, and friends
Do it again!!!!!!
You definitely need a home Jacuzzi for your back and the families assorted aches and pains!
Cheers,

When she asked for a broom and you said here's a dust pan... alongside it was a soft broom made for polished floors.😢😂

@@The_Smith Isn't that only a wall?
Nothing left to see
I felt cheated too, lol because it felt like it went from video of a house, barely done to almost done in one step.
There's nothing left to see the whole house was full of arts and crafts stuff he probably lost his ass on this one between gas and dumping fees and buying hundreds of boxes they should have been paying him to clear the house out definitely wouldn't have payed to do all that work.
Fabrics can be auctioned in groups....quilters will love them
Yes! I would love to buy some of that fabric at auction!
I agree. He always talks about fabric being recycled. Crafters and sewers would buy it all at the auction.
Steven looks like a mini Alex! 😊
Handsome kid!!
Doesn’t he though? I thought the same thing! 🙂
I see Melissa in him, too.
He is the picture of Melissa’s dad. Steven carries himself like Dave too

Yes great idea
Hannah is so neat....mopping satisfying and wondering what memories the dust has.
I like Hannah.
I loved this great home and lively acres. You can tell these homeowners cherished their little piece of paradise!
Hannah seems like a lovely young lady. Very sweet of her to help out too.
When I'm cleaning out a house I've taken to putting a rubber band or a ribbon around the cabinet door handle so that I know it's empty without opening it
Great tip, especially for such a large house.
If I am remembering correctly, the glass basket is Anchor Hocking and is an ice bucket. Sells for alright money. I was also thinking that the realtor might like a copy of those papers showing how the house was and that it had been a show piece to show potential buyers.
Such a beautiful house and property. I hope it finds new owners that love it as much as the original ones did.
I love that sink!!
Everyone who watches should hit that thumbs up. So the algorithm suggests this video to more people in the hopes that some profit can be seen
That’s so kind of you to think of us :)
It always blows my mind that people can be arsed to watch and comment but can't be bothered to move thier finger to that tiny thumb🙄🤷♀️
I love this house clear out. The green glass set is an aperitif set, this is for any type of pre dinner drink you want to serve. Dubonnet and Campari are popular.
I came here to say this

I’ve watched him do that time and again. I’ve no idea how stuff makes it to auction without getting broken. He must know something I do not.
Absinthe. That's what I would drink out of the fancy green glasses.
I was thinking Sambuca or Sherry, but I like your answer better!
Something red wouldn’t work. Absinthe could be it.
Crème de menthe maybe.
Absinthe makes the hawt gwow fonda.
Cordials a sweet alcoholic drink you sipped
You are a blessing to this family. That was a lot of work.

Rosenthal small black vase is $100+....good for auction 🙂
This house is so nice! You can tell it is a happy home. I’d want to buy it 😊if I lived in Canada.
Man I would be vacuuming all that dirt rather than sweeping!
I thought with that being such an old house that you had a Huntsman spider crawling on the TV screen.
But to my shock, it was on my TV screen 🤣😂🤣😂
The black plastic thing at 12:53 is a piece to the Elna sewing machine. It fit under the open arm and held accessories and spools of thread.
These types of videos are so much fun, I really enjoy them. So surprising the things people leave behind. We bought a cottage, told the elderly seller to take what she wanted, leave what she didn't (we're on an island and it can be difficult and expensive to transport things).

An incredible amount of work, so glad your family is so willing to help. ❤
Gosh! What a beautiful property. Some other family will love it again im sure.

No treasure? Fabric is expensive! 😂
Thanls Alex, Melissa & young unz, for including us on this adventure! ❤
So honorable to gather all personal items to give back to owners. Nice!

Throwing cast iron garden bench ends in the scrap bin made me cry LOL
Me too. Too many amazing things got chucked.
love Melissa's be kind shirt. She's a blessing to your family
That’s so nice of you to say. Thank you. We have a pretty amazing bunch here that’s for sure ❤
Oh how I wish you could/would buy this house. I would love to see what you could do to the inside and the WONDERFUL REVITALIZATION that Melissa would do with the gardens!!! Great series!
What a gorgeous property! Great work Family Archbold and Hannah! ❤ XXX
The old Woolco bag made me nostalgic, I worked there as a cashier when I was 16! I think those stores closed down in the early 90s.
This is a gorgeous home/acreage!!! With all of the items it almost protected the house! Someone is going to be very lucky!!! Wish it were me! This is my dream home! (Especially the stove!!) Thanks so much for sharing!!!!
Junk Journalers would love those old patterns. Thanks for sharing your journey. You're doing an amazing job.
I‘d have served liqueurs in the green little glasses, the jug looks so ladylike
Never seen collapsible storage bins before! Very handy! ( I don't get out much 😂)
That's a nice couch so sad to dump it😢, your Steven looks just like his pa! Handsome!!
The dump they use has an area where people leave stuff and it can be gone thru by others to take so not everything he says is going to the dump is actually getting trashed.
@@justmeiniowa that's good!
That is an incredible house... can you imagine that kitchen during the Holidays?
Suggestion ; take all the metal to a scrap yard. Would help offset the fuel cost .
It really is a beautiful house. The yard is also amazing.
I'm exhausted just watching you all work so hard!! 🙃
Seeing the home without the furniture and stuff really highlights the "good bones". I can sooooo see this home being snapped up quickly and lovingly restored to its former beauty.
So many great Finds, I especially like the Butcher Block
I loved this house “cleaning out” series & all of the treasures that you found. Keep on, keeping on. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 👍🇨🇦😊
Fast and efficient workers🎉🎉🎉 Huge undertaking!!!
I love this house, I could live here.
we got an old bench and we cleaned and painted, put on new boards and it runed out great! worth it to salvage or sell.
It's a good lesson for all of us to not keep our big homes and all the stuff longer than we can take care of it. It must be hard to live there and see your life's work going to seed.
Teamwork makes the dream work! 💪
So much work but you have done a great job sorting and going through everything. Take care of your back. I enjoy it when you give a history of what you find and if it has any value. Always enjoy seeing Melissa and your kids.
I really wish you would use either a chest or head mounted camera set up. With two hands you will be able to open boxes, wrapping etc. so much easier.
Nice stove,
That was such an amazing property . So many pretty pieces . Just when you think you are finished you find more treasures. Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤
I love all the things found in that home
My grandparents had a set very similar to the green set you showed. It was for aperitif a small before dinner drink. They got theirs on a trip to Europe but sadly I don't know exactly where.
Love the scrapbook pics of the house, beautiful. Perfect place for a Christmas tree. Now we can see why there were so many bears too.
This cleanout was so much work!!! Compare yourself from the first video to this one. The fatigue is real! Thanks for showing the reality. I greatly enjoy your videos.
Have you seen the Potter House and the Musician’s House? They were far worse!
I’m enjoying this series of vids Alex. I think the little green glasses and decanter are for Sherry, it was the pre dinner drink of choice back in the day.
It is a lovely home. Hope someone buys it and brings it back to its former glory.
Sneezing just watching the sweeping! 🤧🤧
Me too!😊
I would totally bid on an auction fabric bundle!
That is a lot of work, I get tired just watching. Thanks for sharing.
same here. Alex I hope it was efficient for you.
Would those benches you tossed actually not sell as it with the house? I’d think those would be nice pieces for the vast gardens they have… The wood is easily replaceable too…
My sister has a set kind of like the green set from Italy, she puts Amaretto in it for after dinner sips

I would be overjoyed to take that box of patterns off your hands for a reasonable price.😊
Love the pitcher and glasses sets ...green glass maybe for Creme de Mente or Anisette.
I've never gotten to one of your videos this early😮
Not a word when you picked up the Candlewick piece?!?!?!? 😂
Astounding amount of stuff and hard work. Beautiful property. Some treasures, too. Always good to find things you can use. God bless, Alex.
Love scene more of the family helping. Hope you all can relax soon. Also, hope you make back at least what you spent and more. Have a great day.❤
"There's that brass boot you were looking for." Whew! That's a load off my mind.
It always amazes me how you are able to open up boxes, bags, and other things using only one hand while holding the camera with the other hand!
All the fabric and pattern finds takes me back to when my sister and I were clearing out the 33 years' worth of accumulated stuff in our parents' home after they died.
im shocked u didnt use the shop vac
I hope you sold the loom. That would be worth a tidy sum!
Wow, your children have grown up into almost adults now. It's so awesome to see how they've grown since you first started your channel. It makes me feel old. You have one good looking family. That alone is a huge blessing they are all healthy and you are all so close.
They are getting big :) Stephen’s turning 20 soon, Jason will be 18 and Abigail just celebrated 15. They’re amazing helpers
The more I watch, the more I love this home. I hope they sell for the price they want or more. They called the right man for help 🥰.
So much work!
Hoping you did well with the auction and made a pile of money!
That black/grey sewing accessories/spool case that was in the box of materials in the garage is an attachment to the Elna Sewing machine.

Alex said in one of the earlier episodes that the stove is staying in the house. Not being sold.
It is a replica/modern stove with a glass top cooking surface
Glad you got stuff to use yourselves,lots of good finds
Ooo an Ashford spinning wheel! And I saw a traditional , Canadian? Wheel earlier!!
Those garden benches would have brought nice money down here.
Goodness! I can see the strain in your face and hear the strain in your voice. You are doing a hard job.
Thank you for your channel showing the work you do.
Would have liked to see this before the auction! Keep seeing things I would have bid on!
luv those Butterick patterns thats a gem of a collection for anyone who sews; any word if this house is being listed with realtors yet, it won’t last long once it does go on the market, its beautiful home
That seventies sofa would have been quite a find at the local thrift store.
One channel I follow has the same questions come up every time she does certain videos, so she started adding an FAQ list at the top.
People wouldn't bother reading it anyway
Back for more Alex and family! Hugs and love!😊❤
When you were looking at the pottery boxes I was hoping to find something from Mary from the Potter's house.
