It is essential to have an organized garage space where you can easily find the tools you need while working on a particular project. There are many ways to utilize the space in your garage without having to worry about taking up the area that you need for your car. Organizing your garage can make you feel like you have a new garage without breaking your bank. Here are a few DIY organization ideas for your garage:
Utilizing Wall Space for Storage
Adding a few shelves in your garage can make a huge difference. Additionally, you can customize it however you like and you can even get creative with it. You can paint your shelves in any color that best suits you or you can use something different for storage such as flower window boxes or tough vinyl gutters. Utilizing your wall space for storage of items such as tools, gardening tools and fertilizer can create more room in your garage while making it look clutter-free.
Create a Sliding Storage System on Your Garage Ceiling
Like most of us, you probably have boxes of seasonal items that you rarely use, but can’t get rid of. Creating a sliding storage system on your garage ceiling can eliminate these boxes and provide you with additional storage space. All you need are a tracking system, a few plastic containers and measuring tape to begin this ceiling storage DIY project.
Strategically Placed Shelving Units
For the remaining items that take up a little more space than the wall can handle, there is a fast and easy solution to store these items. Once you have created enough floor space, a few strategically placed shelving units can be used to hold plastic containers of your items. Plastic containers are affordable and practical to be used in organization. You can label these containers and stack them to assist you in finding what you need faster. For items that can’t be stacked, store them in plastic totes instead.
