Best to shut the door and let him live in it. When he runs out of clean underwear and shirts and the other kids comment, then maybe he will clean it, if not, at least you don’t have to look at it.
I once came home to find hubby sitting in the bedroom door with his belt in one hand and his watch in the other. The two younger girls were scrambling around hanging up clothes and stacking papers. I just kept walking and didn’t say a word.He has never even spanked either of them, so I don’t know what he threatened them with, but apparently they weren’t taking any chances.
Pack everything up and carry it out to the trash. Amazing how fast a child will clean a room. Trust me I know from first hand experience. Mama was tough!!

tell him either he cleans the room or you’ll do it and you’ll be throwing some stuff in the garbage.

Well, how about an old fashion ass whipping, that aught to get it across to him to keep his room tidy.
