The garage is often delegated as a dumping ground for misplaced objects and miscellaneous tools.
The organization of a garage is often the last thing considered, but it is often the most valuable when it comes to finding one's personal "stuff."
If you're moving to a new home, I have some garage organization ideas that will eliminate the frustration of moving without a place to put your excess storage items.
If carport clutter is driving you mad, start by reclaiming your parking space.
The trick: Utilize the walls. A securely mounted pegboard system will get your tools — rakes, hoses, even wheelbarrows — off the floor and out of the way, plus you'll always be able to see what you have. Carve out even more space by mounting a row of shelves above the board. Just keep a sturdy step stool or ladder handy so you can safely access overhead gear.
Loft-like storage, such as a wooden shelf, or easily installed rack units, is ideal for holding seasonal items such as holiday decor or outdoor gear; rotate out boxes or bins as needed (don't forget to label them). Corral sports gear in a go-to bin so family members can drop off or pick up things while passing through. Tuck bikes and scooters beneath the shelf, too.
