Storage tips for a tidy garage

CLEAN THINGS UP

A simple broom sweep is not enough. To make more space in your workshop or garage, it’s always simpler to start with a deep clean. Admit it, you may be due!

Start by making three piles:

A pile of items to keep;
A pile of items to throw away;
A pile of items to sell or give away.

START FRESH

Organize objects you’ll keep by their theme or according to the use you have for them. For example, gather all your Christmas decorations in the same area. The same thing goes for gardening equipment. You can then more easily identify your storage needs.

ORGANIZE THE SPACE OF THE CUPBOARD AND SHELVES

By installing shelves at the right places, you will have more space for your larger items such as drills, circular saws, watering hoses and other gardening equipment. Complete your organization with safety storage cabinets. These can keep items such as oils, paints and thinners outside of children’s reach.

REGROUP YOUR LEAST USED ITEMS IN STORAGE CONTAINERS

Some items only serve on rare occasions. Give a clean and organized look to your garage by storing them in transparent containers. These containers perfectly integrate underneath shelving and allow you to see what’s inside. They are even properly sealed, which will protect your things in case of flooding.

MAXIMIZE YOUR GARAGE WALL SPACE

Better than cluttering up your floor, make good use of your walls to store more items. Hooks and perforated walls are particularly practical to give you access to everything you need. The floor is yours; work with it!

IMPROVE YOUR WORK SPACE WITH STORAGE

Create a practical work space with the addition of garage cabinets. Store within them all the tools you use regularly. A few of these cabinets also have wood surfaces, which only helps in starting your projects.
