Dan and Katherine have only lived in their house for one year, but they've managed to accumulate a lifetime of clutter in their office and bedroom. They're both packrats, but Mike, with his vast collection of business receipts, is the worst offender. They need the Clean Sweep team to come in and help them make sense of the office and transform the bedroom from a walk-in hamper to a quiet getaway.

But can Shelli Alexander persuade Katherine to unload her beloved butcher-block tabletop? And what's to come of Dan's collection of Dallas Cowboys paraphernalia?

While they sort through the mess outside, designer Angelo Surmelis dreams up a mod set of bedroom side tables, but runs into some trouble when they don't fit in the space. Carpenter Eric Stromer's hard work pays off in the office when he actualizes a desk design without a hitch.

But will Dan lose his beloved photo of Troy Aikman? Can Katherine part with the giant pile of outgrown baby clothes she's acquired? And what's host Tava Smiley's secret to making Dan's old recliner sell at the yard sale? If you're curious about these and other exciting questions, you won't want to miss this action-packed episode of Clean Sweep.
