Lack of storage is the most common problem most garage owners face. Over time the garage becomes a dumping ground for toys, seasonal decorations, garden supplies, tools and equipment, sports gear, and other household items, turning it into a cluttered mess and a storage disaster.

Using the garage more creatively will create more space and keep items out of sight to give a more clean and organized appearance.

Efficiently utilizing the garage’s vertical wall space or using overhead garage storage systems clears up the floor space and makes a garage look organized. In this post, we solve the common garage storage dilemmas by using simple storage solutions to help garage owners make the most of this usually underused space.

CUSTOM SHELVES

Custom shelves are an affordable and practical garage storage solution. It helps use the expansive wall space to keep storage bins and other items. Heavy-duty shelves can withstand heavy objects and are valuable for storing multiple items like holiday decorations, bikes, and tools. Install suspended shelves above the garage door for rarely-used things. Alternatively, use durable standalone shelving units to keep tools and boxes sorted and accessible. Put items on the shelves based on categories, and label them for proper organization.

PEGBOARDS

Pegboards are a valuable addition to any garage. They keep tools and supplies out of the way but still readily accessible. Affordable, they can be hung from floor to ceiling. Use nails and hooks to hang tools and painting supplies to prevent them from taking up valuable garage space and yet stay close at hand.

HOOKS

Standalone wall or ceiling hooks are inexpensive and add significant garage storage space. Use heavy-duty hooks to keep bulky items like chairs, ladders, bikes, hoses, shovels, rakes, sports equipment, and tools. The objects remain out of the way but still visible to use whenever needed. Hooks are also easy to place anywhere and keep small items within reach.

PULLEY SYSTEM

Pulleys are a secure overhead garage storage and organization solution to keep items like a bike, kayak, or extension ladder high. It eliminates the hassle of lifting them into place.

A WORKBENCH

A workbench makes it easier to perform small tasks. For compact garages, a foldable workbench is a great choice. A small Slatwall or pegboard above the workbench or a countertop workspace with storage will keep the work surface free and keep small tools easily accessible.

RACKS

Hanging or sliding storage racks can help in efficiently organizing skates, bikes, storage bins, clothes, toys, and sports equipment like bats, hockey sticks, tennis rackets, and skis. Keep less-used items in the ceiling racks.

OVERHEAD STORAGE BINS

Storage bins are eye-catching and functional. Use them to store small and infrequently-used items like books, keepsakes, and smaller tools. They are easy to handle, pull down, and sort. Clear bins make it easier to identify the contents from a distance. Label the opaque ones for easier identification. Purchase airtight, waterproof containers for protection from water and pests.

Efficient garage storage solutions help create a safe, functional, and aesthetically pleasing garage space without a complete overhaul. Contact a local garage cabinet and overhead storage specialist to make the most of the garage space and keep it organized and clutter-free.
