It’s time to gear up for summer adventures with these simple garage storage tips to make the most out of your next destination.
Zone Out In Your Garage
Organizing your garage into zones is not just a storage hack—it's a game changer. Imagine your Peloton, once neglected in the corner, now a centerpiece on interlocking wood-grain foam flooring tiles, with a basket of towels and shoes hanging off the handlebars. It's an invitation to start training for those long summer rides that are just around the corner. Once your centerpiece zone is in place, create other garage zones around your favorite sports and hobbies. Summer gear is in one zone, and winter gear is in another. If you have kids, pets, or both, have a kid-friendly zone for their gear and toys. For DIYers, put more of that interlocking foam tile in this zone to make it a comfy place for your loved ones to hang out and play while you work on your latest project.
A Vertical Ascent: Elevate Your Storage Game
You can take your storage to new heights by maximizing the vertical space in your garage. Install sleek shelves and racks to store items like climbing gear, sports equipment, kayaks, and surfboards. Trendy pegboards can be utilized to hang smaller items like gloves, helmets, and water bottles. If you're a cyclist, consider a pulley bike storage kit to hoist your bike up and out of the way. For anglers and campers, check out Amazon for the ultimate camping chair wall storage solution. This multipurpose rack hoists your camping chairs off the ground and offers floating shelves and hooks for additional equipment.
You Can See Clearly Now
Clear storage bins are more than containers, they're indispensable for efficient organization. They allow you to quickly identify the contents without opening each bin, saving you time and frustration, and are available in various sizes that are easy to stack. On the other hand, opaque bins can keep unsightly items out of sight and are available in different weights to better accommodate heavier items such as power tools. Remember that storage bins work best when you organize similar items together in the same container.
Artsy Organization For All Ages
Applying chalkboard paint to a surface in your garage is a creative and practical way to organize your space. By painting a wall or door with chalkboard paint, you can create surface areas for jotting down to-do lists, project ideas, or notes about items stored in your garage. If you have a workbench in your garage, a chalkboard surface can be handy whenever you want to start a new project to write down a laundry list of the items you'll need. Once the paint is applied, use chalk in a wild rainbow of colors for writing, doodling, or maybe even creating artful masterpieces.
