Kudos to you for being able to do all of this and have a system for doing so. My only "system" is taking spare pieces from sets, putting them in ziploc bags and labeling it by set. How then do you sort out the unique pieces like any and all accessory pieces that are left over from sets?
A most timely video. I have been reorganizing my drawers lately as well. The endless game of how far to breakdown the miscellany is hilarious. But I’ve finally emptied the cookie jar of spare parts. Haha. Keep up the amazing work Bricksie!!
Be sure to have LBG for the edges of your MILS plates on the road side, they show. You can fill the middle with all other colors. Everybody fails to mention that usually. I have to go back and redo some of mine. 😂
sorting takes forever but is definitely necessary, working out how to store all your parts is hard, I have a "I have no idea where to put this piece" draw
7:59 That desk thing is pretty cool that has that has the world map on it. The dots should be colored so you could build it with studs. With the one color it’s hard to see how many studs you need.
This just reminds me of all the sorting I have to do 😂. I first sort by color, and than break down by type. So I go to the color drawer, then specific type bin. I still have most of a 25 gal bin and some misc small trays to sort, lots of work!
I have completely made the color a secondary sorting key if any. Primarily all parts are either sorted by the exact part (especially the smaller ones) or by categories. Only if a part exists in a very large quantity I add an additional sorting by the color. Only exception: Everything in the old Light Grey is kept separate, because that's to similar to the new LBG.
Heya Bricksie ... low level starting sorter here; right now I have my separation in just circular plastic bins, but we bought a house (!) and have a basement room similar to yours that I'm hoping to make into a Lego room as well. Can you list out some of the things you use for your room, such as which plastic drawers & bins those are, the Ikea (?) tables and such, and particularly anything you used for things like the Bricksie Wall and minifigs hanging? I will never get anywhere near the level of you and your city, but I'd love to at least starting to have a real sorted system.
Hi from uk i have my lego in storage boxes,sewing boxes and tool boxes my dad no longer wanted😂. I have to confess i love sorting lego so much so i’ve bought myself 12+kg of random second hand lego off ebay to sort on my 41st birthday this sunday 😊 i rarely see ebay buy it now bundles of lego i like the look of or feel is worth the money but i got lucky with two lots in a row on one day.The first lego bundle i ever bought was crappy 1/3 of it was bionacle lego which i hate.😂
Omg lol I only had a quarter of that to sort . Took me hours a day. My favourite job though . I don’t have enough lego to sort them into colours and sizes but I have sorted them so I can find the odd bits or smaller bits more easily. I downloaded a plan from rebrickable and was trying to find the bits and gave up . Spent the last week re sorting my lego so now I should be able to find what I need . Wish I was there I would loved to have helped . Love from Australia.
Oh man. My brain really really liked this video. I love sorting parts, for real, 100%. You could hire me to do this and I’d be so happy. Lol. Organization makes me happy! 😄👍
Bricksie you should make the lego city a valentines theme in Valentines day! Good job on the lego city :) you realy inspired me to build lego but i only have 3 builds cuz me broke :) but its okay continue building the lego city now ill watch every vid:)
I mean, if you say that the "bins are overflowing" and bursting at the seams, i'd be more than happy to take some bricks off your hands and give them to my niece. Remember, it is a sacrifice im willing to make for you! =D
I would get rid of the sorting bins and have custom units built starting from the side of the Billy shelf going underneath your window where the Titanic is displayed and along the back wall to maximise your space.
Can the creator or anyone else know the brand of drawers he has? Also, what are they using for the storage inside the drawers, looks like plastic squares. Thanks!
God job you dont have to count it all too 🤣 Have you thought of using The Legendary Flower Fruit Mountain 80024 from the Monkey kid range as part of your zoo. The rocks and waterfall would great without the stickers and have animals around it. It would look great 👍
i didnt know there was does kinds of big lego heads. i have one but that is just a regular smiley face. But where do you buy them and can you still buy them?
Hey! I have a quick question for anyone who can answer. I was looking to buy the Batman collection lego, but it’s up for preorder only. Same with Thor’s hammer. Now the preordering doesn’t concern me, I’m just curious why it’s just those 2 sets that you have to pre order. Are they limited edition or something?
Oh man, I don't know how people can sit there and sort for hours, that's a lot. I looked at prices for those storage drawers and they are expensive, Canadian tire was like $20 or something for one. I hope to do the same, start small then eventually order parts to grow the collection, although I don't know what parts I would start off with. Eventually I want to do a city, but currently don't have a lot of space, however I'd still like a part wall to be able to sit down and build mocs of various things. One moc I am working on the computer studio is a 65 impala, I hope once it's done to order the parts to build it. That said if anyone can give advice, what parts or types of parts would be best to just start out collecting, (I'm not parting out my sets).
Yeesh with all those extra parts, you probably could just build many lego sets instead of just going out and buying another. Just hafta get instructions off the net of course.

9 *HOURS* of sorting... wow! I like to do about an hour a week, can't imagine doing it all in bulk!
Even tough it takes time it is so relaxing
I wish I lived anywhere near you...I LOVE sorting stuff....I would GLADLY put in some hours helping you sort Lego!
I need help with mine😅

Pretty epic speed up video love the growth the shrinking n build up again really neat to see.
Great video! Reminds me of all the sorting I need to do. It’s satisfying watching somebody else do it!
good job bricksie! keep up the work!
stacking those bins of lego pieces was hilarious! It was like watching a sitcom scene! Your so imaginative and funny! I love it!

Wow Bricksie … you’ve inspired me to do some sorting of my own! I am in-between MOCs, so now is the perfect time! 👏💯%
awesome video jordan i love how you sorted out all the lego it looks amazing
If only we could sort that fast in real time 🤣
No joke 😂
Ikr when I had started first sorting mine it took hours upon hours 🤣🤣 now I want to resort mine even further but it’s such a tedious process
I've got a bin or sets I need to part out and sort, now's probably the time to get on it!

Ive been working on sorting through my collection too, I have 22 1ft shoebox bins left 😅 I use a system similar to yours thanks for sharing!
Very nice, I live around an hour away from u!
I used approx 2000 off 2x2 to do 26 large grey baseplates as MILs

Im actually going to be at West Edmonton mall in the summer
I love your videos keep up the great work
I would kill for somekind of lego auto sorter
U will use up so many parts upgrading to mils, u have a great start! Looks good
Made me laugh! Time always flies by when sorting!
You can use the IKEA TROFAST for sorting your Lego
Great information which is going to help me greatly with my system
Anytime you sort we would love a quick vlog (great content)
Recommendation: Star Wars Blasters in the hands of all those Santa mini-figures.
Zip Lock bags to the rescue!!!
No way lol I follow you on TikTok you have help me so much to organize my legos pieces in a much easier way
Add colosseum to the city 😉
Sorry I'm late 😬 I had school. But love the video. What a massive amount of bap you have. Love it
please add a link for the bowls inside the steritle containers. thanks!
I mean, if you say that the "bins are overflowing" and bursting at the seams, i'd be more than happy to take some bricks off your hands and give them to my niece. Remember, it is a sacrifice im willing to make for you! =D

Wow that’s an amazing amount of lego and sorting bins !!!! Great video though, and actually being out of focus while speed sorting kinda worked !!!
You should probably make a Edmonton oilers hockey rink that be cool
I’ve got 3 45 gallon storage bins full of unsorted Lego it’s going to take me for ever
Nice work!
Reminds me of when I had to sort all my kego
*lego
What are the clear plastic bins that are inside the drawers?
You should label your drawers bricksie I find it help full mine are labeled
I want all your parts and pieces! I'm a little jalous!
Great!
Can the creator or anyone else know the brand of drawers he has? Also, what are they using for the storage inside the drawers, looks like plastic squares. Thanks!
I would be stopping and playing…I would never get done.
I think Lego collectors alone keep Ziplock in business.
Hey Jordan, only you can make sorting Lego interesting😀😀😀
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks helped alot
“Not in use is just.. not good!” :)
What bins are you using?
Just wondering how many parts are in your collection. I bet you never kept track, but my guess is you've got several million. 🤔
God job you dont have to count it all too 🤣
Have you thought of using The Legendary Flower Fruit Mountain 80024 from the Monkey kid range as part of your zoo. The rocks and waterfall would great without the stickers and have animals around it. It would look great 👍
I want to use that set for a campground. It reminds me of Yosemite.
i didnt know there was does kinds of big lego heads. i have one but that is just a regular smiley face. But where do you buy them and can you still buy them?
Do you not keep the kits together?if so how do you keep those organized?
I just built the football field the other day
Are those drawers just like A4 document tray/drawer?
Soccer stadium! ⚽️
If you don't do much technic, how did you accumulate so many extra technic parts?
Sorting is always a super long job. Where did you get your desk mat from?
A member actually sent it to me, but it was from Amazon!
Can you do tutorials on how to make a moc
😂 Thor and thanos battling

where did you get those clear drawer organizer trays? In the beginning of the video. How do you like them? Can you send me a link to them please?
We love them, and they fit perfectly in our Sterillite drawers! They're from the dollar store.
@@Bricksie Okay. Thanks for the quick reply. That's an awesome setup. I'm going to do the same.
@@Bricksie Which Dollar Store? Dollar Tree? Dollar General? I couldn't find them.
I got black I got white what you want- 10:49 😂
Idk.
Why didn't you remove the train
wish you guys would do giveaways or ruffles, etc...
Why we need to sort duplo
