Get Your Garage Ready for Summer with Savvy Storage

Use of certain areas of the home tends to increase during certain parts of the year, and one example for many homes is use of the garage during the summer months.

Kinds of Summer Gear and Items to Consider

While these will vary for each individual household, here are some of the main kinds of summer gear and equipment that often require consideration for storage in the garage this time of year:

• Bikes: If you and your family enjoy riding bikes during summer, then it's important to have a designated spot for them in the garage. Consider hanging them from hooks on the wall or investing in a bike rack that can hold multiple bikes at once.
• Lawn and garden equipment: With warmer weather comes more yard work, so make sure you have ample space for storing lawn mowers, weed trimmers, hoses, and other gardening tools. Wall shelves or cabinets are great options for keeping these items organized and easily accessible.
• Sports equipment: Whether it's baseball bats, basketballs, or tennis rackets, sports gear tends to accumulate quickly during the summer months. Install some storage bins or shelves specifically for sports equipment to prevent clutter and keep your garage looking tidy.
• Seasonal decorations: Holidays such as Christmas, Halloween, and Thanksgiving often require a variety of decorations that can take up a lot of space. Consider designating a section in your garage for holiday storage, using labeled bins or shelves to keep everything organized and easily accessible when needed.
• Outdoor gear: Summer is the perfect time for camping, fishing, and other outdoor activities. However, all that gear can quickly take over your garage if you don't have proper storage solutions. Consider investing in hooks or racks for bikes, kayaks, and other large outdoor items to keep them off the floor and out of the way.
• Tools: If you're someone who loves DIY projects, you probably have a collection of tools in your garage. To keep them organized and easily accessible, use a pegboard or magnetic strips to hang smaller tools. For larger tools like shovels and rakes, invest in a sturdy tool rack.

How Garage Storage Systems Free Up Space

One of the great things about garage storage systems like custom garage cabinets and overhead shelves is that they help to free up space in your garage. With all of your items neatly organized and stored away, you'll have more room to move around and work on projects. Plus, with everything off the floor, you'll have more space for parking your car or storing large outdoor equipment.

For instance, if you have a snow blower or lawn mower, instead of leaving them on the floor taking up valuable space, you can store them on overhead shelves. This not only clears up space in your garage but also helps protect your equipment from potential damage caused by being stored on the ground.

With more free space in your garage, you can also consider adding additional storage solutions such as a workbench or tool rack. Having a designated workspace and easy access to your tools will make completing projects even easier and more efficient. Plus, with all of your tools organized and within reach, you won't waste time searching for the right tool when you need it.
