Cleaning out my 40ft storage unit for the first time.. *hoarder at 22* 

YES

THIS!😂

We learned that Mia has a sailboat!😮 We need a video!😬❤️

**laughs in Mama Maples**

But the pillows...

Yyy65yyt

I am NOT a hoarder. My mom was a massive hoarder. You had to see all the stuff to believe it. She’s 91 now and my sisters and I have managed to get her to throw away a couple of pickup truck loads. There’s at least 2 large dumpsters of stuff she kept. She refused to let go of it. Most of it is useless. It’s a shame because it’s truly a mental disorder. She lived through the depression and it really affected her. At least all of this stuff was useable.

Hoarding comes in different levels. Just because your mom’s hoarding was bad and looked different doesn’t mean you don’t hoard

@@TheTlangdon You can also hoard useable stuff. I mean, just look at those people who use a shit ton of coupons all the time - the ones who just keep going out once or twice a week to buy hundreds of dollars worth of stuff just so they can get it all for $15 or whatever. All of that stuff is useable - such as laundry stuff, food, drinks, bedroom stuff etc. but they just keep on buying it and packaging it up as them being "money smart" when they aren't and instead just have a shopping addiction and hoarding problem. One person can just hoard dolls while another person hoards cans of beans - but those are still hoarding problems. You cannot write off someones hoarding just because it happens to be usable. That being said, I really don't think Mia nor her mom are hoarders, though I could be wrong as they didn't show every single second of their day on camera, but their lack of an emotional response and with their ease of cleaning it lends me to believe they just have a lot of stuff and "hoarding" sounds, weirdly, better than "pack rat" which is what they are. Hoarding is psychological - like you mentioned - but again, just because it's usable doesn't mean its any less of a problem.

I got the problem that i dont want to get rid of things. But then i actually in courage myself im not going to use it and if i get rid of it there will be more space and i also love space. So thats how i motivate myself i also tell myself the less there is the less to clean lol

Mia: "mum" * flops into rows upon rows of pillows *

😂😂

🤣🤣🤣

Neither did Tate lol

Not at all but it’s so cute 😂

@@thayerwilliams905 Tate’s understandable. He’s trying to furnish an apartment. He even said so. Mama Maples has an already furnished home. so…..

Yeah i think i know where mia gets it from 😊

My mom reminds me so much of Mias but she would be “encouraging” me my to throw everything away!

You took the words out of mouth 🤣🤣

Loved this video!!❤️❤️❤️ Can’t wait for the moving video. I just moved and it was so stressful! Sending good thoughts your way!!🥰🥰

🤣🤣🤣

Yes!

Yes yes yes !!!!

Yesssssss!

this would be amazing!!!!!!

I agree, It would be very cool to see her do that ✨

I know right, she has so much help and support from her family it is amazing to see. I never had both of my parents present to help me do something

You are right. It's so amazing. Their relationship. And they're not afraid of anything. ❤

Same

Same

Same! I'm Canadian and never heard "garage" pronounced that way.

same, and I am also canadian. oh and also apparently people from outside of Canada say we say "aBOOT" but I always have heard and said about

Same never

It’s not a Canadian thing…it’s just Mia😃

It’s weird as shit

She got a grage now

@@joyfitz as a British person we don't say it like that ha ha we say it gare-age ( like carriage) 😁

Gar-Age - - gar-ah-ge

I don’t blame him!! Who wouldn’t?

If Mia was my sister I'd do it too 😉

Kinda want to see the finished product in a video

Coming soon!!

@James Duthie Suuuuuuure.. Mia’s definitely gonna do all that for someone who’s not even subscribed yet 😂

Also, it’s not what she wears that gains her her followers, it’s her amazing personality in her videos :)

@@MysteriousPerson1447 I don’t think she needs advice from you James, good try tho 💀

I totally want to see you clean out the studio and refurbish the new studio!!! 💘

She has said in the past that she wanted to start doing this but then COVID happened and she hasn’t been able to.

IKR! its like digging into your friend's pencil case in primary school but at a much bigger scale. plus it was sooo good to see mia's storage so empty at the end

Totally!! LOVE it!! But the Maples family Especially 😊😍

I am moving soon and I’ve been needing to go through my things and purge. This was very motivating! Lol

I feel the same! It’s probably because I’m a hoarder too and it gives me a sense of accomplishment watching someone else doing it because I know I won’t😂😂

@@callierose690 lol yep!

5! She has two brothers!

Such a beautiful happy family

I know it, it was so cute 🥺

I give my siblings my old furniture/furnishings too.😆 Lucky for them to have an older sibling.😝

I wish. I have 2 older siblings and all they have is debt lol I gifted my sister with my old bed when I replaced it since she had nothing and my brother has only rent to own furniture 😂

No because throughout all of this im like, im moving out soon, i need furniture, tell me the exact location of the thrift store you will be donating that to please and thank you

Whenever one of us moves, siblings have first dibs on stuff that's going to donated. Appliances especially get moved from house to house alot. Lol

LOL

I was wondering if that was just an English expression because I kept waiting for them to say it but they didn't lol

Lol 😂😂😂

I accidentally had a spare sink which hung around for seven years. I have eventually used it. So glad I kept it 🤓

People always talk about the way Canadians say “about.” No one talks about “garage.” 😭😂

same. I have never cringed so hard at how someone said something lol.

*as a Canadian, she said it normally* lol

@@DeityLover that’s literally her accident

Same! Hahaha 😝

I was waiting for this comment. I also lived with a hoader ... there were piles from floor to ceiling. You had clean items mixed with dirty items, mail everywhere, dishes, chaos. This is a very clean, big storage unit. Definitely not hoarding disorder.

@@juulee Definitely. It's just full.

Well that does make me feel better about all my stuff.. thank you!

There are different stages of hoarding... It's not just what we usually see with the 'extreme' and unsanitary hoarding. Mia would be a level 1.

@@jess1987 Mia doesn’t present any real hoarding tendencies. She kept these things for a real reason, she was going to start a staging company. She also clearly had no issues parting with it all, a hoarder would not be this comfortable with getting rid of their hoard.

yea if its her storage unit i wana see how big her house is 😂😱

Thank you

I have heard many differing pronunciations of garage just within Canada. Language is so interesting!

Hahah, same here! I had to pause and fell into a loophole of different pronunciations of the word :D

@@annp97 Canadian here, never ever heard it pronounced like that

Same XD

IKR what is she saying

i love me some mia…. but i REALLY love some dad and momma maples!

At first i thought she was doung it as a joke. So endearing.

🤣☠️

I honestly did not know what she said at first!

i was wondering why she was saying it like that lol

THANK YOU!! Hahahhaa

That was a dream of mine !!!

@@MiaMaples are you no longer working on it?

Dad, sell some of the pieces to a staging company. Or the local TV studio. OR give to the local women's & kids shelter! They'd love new things!

Can someone explain to me what's the thing with the donations? I somehow didn't catch that in her videos. So like Mia is donating to an organization from the comments every month or what? Either way, such a nice gesture.

@amina there was a video maybe 2 months ago(not sure) where she requested people to send donation suggestions in the comments of that video before a certain date. Since then she has been donating $500 to a charity that been picked out of a jar for every video

@@samoamina she donates 500 dollars i believe to charity. In one video she asked her fans to comment organizations to support and every video she picks up one from a jar and donates :)

@@zami2525 @hiya bara thanks for the explanation, thats so nice of her.

@@samoamina She chose 100 suggested charities from us by the number of people who voted for a charity and then some she deemed worthy. When those 100 are gone, she'll ask us for charities again. A month ago, she donated to one of her own choosing spur of the moment to help with a crisis. Totally great of her.

A nice sanding with 400 grit, a couple coats of wax and you've got yourself a beautiful wall hanging to separate one space into two. A riser at either end, a beautiful shelf for a dining table, mantel, etc.

Tchhh! "Collecting"...we call it collecting. LOL

I was cracking up with that 🤣

Simplynaillogical Vibes

@@vt-zb1bn YESSSS

I’m glad someone else mentioned it lol. I was scrolling through the comments like “AM I THE ONLY ONE SHOOK THAT SHE HAS A WHOLE ASS SAILBOAT?”

Same. I was like WHAT age 5?!?

@@kimberlybaker5133 Exactly! I think the only thing I could fit from when I was 5 would be my hair ribbons 😂

I think she (Mama) was just busting her chops guys!

True true lol

MIA

Typing too fast! Haha!

@@kimmatura3564 😄

We say it like graj in india lol

@Tilly Dinskahoff SAME!

SAME HERE i was like... grraaaaaj???? What?

Literally was going to comment this lol love seeing the diverse pronunciation 😆

I was wondering that too! So good

She probably paid extra for that. Most standard storage units are a certain size and small. Other units - like one that is 40ft!! 😱- can look a lot bigger and nicer like this. She paid for the nicer unit with extra storage capabilities

It just looks like she's renting a barn.

In Florida have to get climate controlled storage or your stuff will all mildew! Also make sure there is pest control. Expensive. In Canada, guess you have to worry about freezing!

Your comment is from last year, but maybe you'll see this. I know what you mean about this being bittersweet. My mom and I had a similar relationship; she was very bubbly and always smiling. We always had fun together and I miss those days as well....

@@bethb7965 I sure did, thank you for responding. I'm glad you at least had the time you did with her to make those memories. It'll never have been enough time though, I still miss my mom deeply too. I hope you're doing well ❤️

I was literally trying to find this comment

I agree with you that she has a whole furniture mart in her storage locker

Because they (especially mom) are also hoarders

i’m Canadian and i’ve never heard someone say garage like she does hahah

lol I'm Canadian and I can't when people say graj instead of garage, rouff instead of roof and any words with "i" that get replaced with "e" like VANELLA ICE CREAM 😂😂

I know right?!

"Gradge" i swear she's so cute i love her sm
