Garage Organization
10 Organization Tips for the “Everything” Room of Your House
1. Hang a
pegboard for easy-to-see storage. Choose
the wall nearest to the door. Store small items in buckets or empty
paint cans.
2. One item
in, one item out. For every item you
bring into the garage, take one item out for donation or recycling.
3. Organize
for accessibility. Store items you
use most frequently on shelves at eye-level or drawers that are easy
to reach.
4. Designate a
place for tools. Choose one drawer
for household tools like screwdrivers and hammers.
5. Get rid of
junk. Toss, recycle or donate
anything old, broken, unused or unwanted.
6. Plan a
garage sale. Schedule it for a
Saturday in spring near the beginning or middle of the month when
most people get paid.
7. Create
holiday storage. Buy clear storage
bins for ornaments, lights and wrapping paper. Label each bin.
8. Don’t let
laundry pile up. If your washer and
dryer are in your garage, keep clothes from creating clutter. Sort
everything into two piles: whites and colors.
9. Install a
magnetic knife holder. No, not for
your kitchen knives. Use it for small tools like hex wrenches and
screwdriver bits.
10. Store
garbage bags easily. Re-purpose a
paper towel dispenser to hold a roll of heavy-duty garbage bags.
