Nearly everyone has that corner or area of the house that’s just a little too messy. For many folks, the garage ends up being the default storage place for holiday decorations, sports equipment, tools – anything really.
That also means many garages are unorganized messes. So how do you clean up your garage and make sure everything has its place?
Here are 5 garage storage ideas you can use to organize your space.
1. Store Lawn Care Items Near the Door
It’s much easier to get your yard work done if your tools are easily accessible. Consider storing your lawn care items near your garage door for easy access. Anything you can do to make lawn care get done faster is good.
For saving space, opt for a push lawnmower that is small or collapsible. Many newer push mowers have a collapsible handle. Choosing one of these and storing it near your garage entrance will keep things organized and save your room for your vehicles.
2. Hang Your Bikes
If you’re looking to get everything up on the floor, you can go even further and hang up your bicycles. There are many options for hanging bicycles. Some involve hanging them from the wall or even suspending them from the ceiling.
If you’re handy, you can make a DIY bike shelf. Or you can opt for an electric bike lift, which will lift your bikes off the floor. As a bonus, these can often hold other large items like kayaks or backpacks.
3. Make the Most Out of Your Corner Space
To make the most out of your garage layout, utilize corner space. There are affordable corner shelves and garage cabinets you can buy to help keep your corners organized.
A premade corner tool rack can help store your long-handled tools such as rakes, shovels, and broons.
4. Buy Premium Cabinets
Home storage options don’t have to be boring. If you’re looking for some cabinets for your garage, try one of our modular cabinet lines.

5. Use It for Seasonal Storage
Looking to free up your home’s closest space? Got more room in your garage?
Seasonal items such as out-of-season clothes can easily be hidden away in your garage. Put them in a bin container and label it. Since it’s likely you won’t need to access these items more than a handful of times each year, you can store these items in a higher spot.
