Garage Organization Tips

Garages often become the dumping ground for clutter. Clutter will simply waste valuable space. Here's a few tips for getting your garage organized.

#2. Keep similar items togetther. For example, garden tools in one area, car tools in another area.

#3. Cabinets will always look better than shelves. Contents will be protected from dust. And shelves often look cluttered.

#4. Use wall hooks rather than propping things against a wall. For example, storing bicycles.

#5. A sports equipment organizer near the garage entrance give easy access for the kids to get their skates, helmets, bats and balls.
