At the end of a season, or at the end of the year (when inventories are taken), the stores will discount all the old merchandise to make room for new stuff. This is called a clearance (clearing away) sale.

That's probably because in this context 'clearance' is a short form of 'clearance sale' or 'inventory-clearance sale".
