Garage Storage Tips

Tip 1: Make the most of storage you already have

It’s often the case that garages have plenty of overhead space which goes unused. Check it out.

But by installing garage cabinets and overhead garage storage racks or hooks in the ceiling, you can easily store more garage items such as luggage, bicycles, boxes, skis, fishing poles or other types of sporting equipment. Awkward shaped items often are the space hogs when carelessly stored on the ground somewhere.

Tip 2: Make a Garage Space Plan

Creating garage storage space that provides easy access to stored items is frequently a challenge and must be approached with a systematic approach. Make sure during the planning process that you plan out where you want to place the frequently used items vs seldom used items and heavy vs light weight items. You want to be able to reach all stored items easily, without having to dismantle the entire setup, or having to disrupt the whole storage system in doing so.

Tip 3: Keep an inventory of what you store in the Garage

Labeling remains one of the best organizational tools to invest in. No matter the amount of confidence you may have in your memory and organizational skills, stuff gets thrown into the garage. Avoid unnecessary frustration from the start and label all garage cabinets, boxes and shelves so that you can easily remember at a glance where everything is, and find them with the minimal of effort.
