With a few inexpensive items and things you already have around the house, you can get your garage in order with these easy garage storage solutions. Whether you’re organizing power tools or arranging a shelving unit, here are a few great ways to spruce up your garage organization.
Creative Garage Organization
With a little creativity, you can come up with simple organization solutions for your garage. The following are great ways to create usable storage space in the garage.
Add a Pegboard Storage Wall
Install a pegboard on the garage wall for easy storage. This innovative organization tool maximizes your wall space and lets you easily access many items. From hand saws and drills to containers of tape and rollers, pegboard will hold almost anything.
Build a Hub for Cordless Tools
It’s a hassle to have to search for tools when you need them. After locating a drill or Dremel tool, it’s frustrating to discover that the battery is dead. Solve this storage problem by building a hub for cordless tools. This hub stores cordless tools and drill bits together and it acts as a central location for chargers. Build the hub near an outlet so that batteries are always charging.
Use a Bookshelf for Home Improvement Materials
Paint cans often clutter the garage. Upcycle an old bookshelf by filling it up with spray cans, house paints, grout, sealants, adhesives, and related materials.
Hang Tools With Magnets
Magnets are an underused tool when it comes to organization. Create a magnetic hanger for easy storage. With a few heavy-duty magnets in place under a shelf or table, you can store items by hanging them. If you have metal shelving in your garage, organize smaller items using magnetic hooks or magnetic clips on the shelves. Hang lightweight tools, keys, charging cords, etc. using the clips and hooks.
Stack Your Storage Bins for Better Garage Organization
Storage bins make garage organization more efficient. Wall-mounted bins free up floor space and it’s easy to see where everything is stored. Use shelves to stack bins for easy accessibility. Labeled clearly, plastic bins are inexpensive and effective storage solutions.
A garage can quickly become cluttered and disorganized. Reclaim your space by putting these ideas into practice. With these do-it-yourself solutions, you can make your garage the most organized area in the house.
