How to keep the garage tidy?

The garage can quickly become a repository for things that have not found their place in the house. These are usually items that are too large to store in racks, or not needed on a daily basis. So the garage can serve as a basement and storage room in no time, even though it won’t quite be to our liking. How to keep the garage tidy?

Seasonal cleanup in the garage

Once in a while, it’s worth looking at the inside of the garage with a critical eye and considering whether everything is definitely in its place and necessary for us to function. With every box of clothes, toys or other items, it’s worth asking yourself basic questions: has this thing been used at least once during the year? Is it really useful to me? Things that just linger in the garage space and are unused can find their place on the secondary market. It is definitely worth removing, donating or selling anything that is unnecessary and disturbs the space. No sentimentality!

Creating a garage storage system

An orderly space will ensure that you no longer need to look for anything, because every thing will have its place – it will be easily accessible without wading through cartons, boxes and boxes. If you remove everything unnecessary from the garage – it’s time for the next step, which is the storage system. It is worth looking carefully not only at the things stored in the garage, but also at the very way of storing them. Do tires really have to stand close to the entrance? We take them out once or twice a year. Does the lawnmower have to stand on top in winter, just like the snow shovel in summer? When planning a cleanup, it’s worth considering which appliances or tools will be used on a regular basis, once in a while, and which once or twice a year. Only what we reach for most often should be on top.

When organizing your garage, it’s a good idea to get baskets and shelves that can be hung on the walls, as well as hooks on which to hang various large items that take up floor space (such as bicycles or tires). The less stuff on the floor, the easier it is to keep the garage tidy.

Garage door in small garages

Already at the stage of planning or renovating a garage, it is worth considering which garage door will be most convenient for us. The most successful in small and larger garages are sectional gates, which hide under the ceiling, so they do not interfere with the space inside the garage.
