Today marks the first day of Spring here in the Northern Hemisphere, which means it’s time to bring back one of our most visually satisfying contests! Now is the perfect time to refresh and renew your space with a little cleaning project. We know you’ve got a mess of cables or old equipment lurking somewhere in the corners of your closet 😉 Now’s the time to tackle ‘em!

The rules are simple: take a photo of your spring cleaning project and share it with us for a chance to win swag. We’d love to see before and after photos, but simply an after photo that you’re particularly proud of or an anxiety-inducing, yet aspirational before photo will do!

For a little inspiration, below are a few of the community’s favorites from last year’s contest:

This on-brand soap and lotion @MerryAki shared is just the thing to cleanse and moisturize your old equipment!

This before and after @Simeon1 shared 😍. What an improvement!

@RWelch2 back when I was on the customer side of networking I felt like my data closet cleans up like you show would last about 24 hours before it all went back to a crime scene

This was one we completed last year. Not perfect but far better than before.
Yes, there are actually switches in the rack at the bottom of the before photo.

My hobby is cars, primarily classic & muscle cars. One of our classics is a rare 1968 Camaro RS/SS convertible. It has the rarest engine that came in a 1968 Camaro, a 396/350. 396 = cubic inches, 350 = horsepower, only 1% of the 1968 Camaros produced came with this engine. The car is original and stock, I am a purist and work hard to keep our classics stock and original as possible, as a purist I am trying to preserve American automotive history, the original and stock classic cars are becoming harder and harder to find, as many have been destroyed, rusted, wrecked or modified from original over the years. I spent many hours detailing the engine compartment and the original interior recently... spring cleaning :-), preparing it for hopefully 2 or 3 car shows this year. It has received many awards and even 2 best of shows over the 23 years we have owned it (its my wife's favorite). image.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpeg

I'm going to submit for 2 of our locations. Below is a before and after pictures of our hot mess. I have more pictures to share because it does go beyond the cabinet. We can actually close the door now!
