When you’re ready to make a move on your Winter Garden home organization plans, remember to include your garage. Often overlooked, the garage is a hidden storage jewel that can handle a larger capacity of items than you ever imagined. There are several ways to organize a garage space, and your plan can use one or more of these great ideas.
Winter Garden Home Organization
Multi-Purpose Storage
Whether you keep a car in the garage or not, chances are you are already using it to store a multitude of household items. This extra space can hold a lot of potential from storing traditional outdoor items such as ladders and lawnmowers, to seasonal clothing, pantry foods, paint supplies, holiday decorations and more. Organizing different types of items in one space requires careful planning and segmented categories to avoid disarray and damage.
Bulkier items such as large storage bins, tires, and inflatables for the pool can remain visible, but out of the way when stored atop sturdy overhead metal platforms. These platforms hang from the ceiling and are ideal for occasionally-used items. For remaining items, your storage plan can include shelving mixed with sleek modern garage storage cabinets of various sizes. Outside the cabinets provide a uniform look. Inside, these cabinets have plenty of adjustable shelf space for organizing canned goods, hand tools, pool supplies, painting supplies, and other everyday items.
Hobby Workshop
If you’re an avid hobbyist, you need a comfortable place to work on your favorite projects and enough storage space to house tools and supplies. Once you clear away unnecessary clutter, your garage should have plenty of space for a hobby workshop. The key to making this work is moving as many items off the floor and onto the walls as possible. Slat wall systems include metal hooks sturdy enough to safely hold bicycles, ladders, surfboards, and a collection of tools used for outdoor yard care.
Add a worktable, workbench, baskets, bins, and cabinets for storing tools and supplies, and you’re ready to go. Remember to install adequate lighting so you can clearly see while you work.
Hangout Space
Organizing a garage frees up space for a cool hangout spot for family and friends. Garage storage cabinets come in traditional gray or white colors and hide a ton of garage items from visitors. Invite everyone over for BBQs, picnics, birthday parties, or big game parties in your new spacious garage.
