How to Organize a Garage - A Step-by-Step Approach
When you first consider organizing your garage, it may seem an impossible task, probably with all the clutter taking up the space. But did you know that the seemingly impossible task of organizing a garage can be extremely manageable? Yes, with just a little elbow grease and some simple yet effective storage solutions, you can definitely organize your garage like a dream!
Are you ready to get started? Here's a step-by-step approach in organizing a garage:
Organizing Your Garage: How to Do It
- Set a schedule. Pick out the best day (Tip: Don't pick rainy days, please!), roll up your sleeves, and get ready to break some sweat! Then, take out everything from your garage. It's easier to start on a clean slate than just move things around.
- Sort it out. Pile everything out into categories. Identify which items should be kept and which ones should given away or donated, or tossed away for good. Be ruthless. If you want to keep your clutter to a minimum, you should be prepared to put items in their right categories. No hoarding, please. You can use stackable plastic storage containers in sorting the items in your garage. This is an ideal option since aside from being extremely durable, plastic storage containers allow you to quickly identify the contents.
- Plan your space. Now that you've cleared your garage and you can finally see your garage floor (thank heavens!), it's time to map out the actual dimensions of your space. Note where the doors and windows are, as well as the area occupied by your car. If there's a stair, don't forget to put it on your map, too. Knowing where everything is can help you decide on the ideal garage organization systems for your space, and suit them to fit your style and needs.
- Shop around for garage organization systems. There is a wide variety of garage organizing products available in the market today. Do you need cabinets to keep your things secured? Or perhaps some wall systems and matching wall components to make use of the vertical space available? How about some workbenches? You'll find a great selection of all of these online. Plus, you'll also save a lot of time and get great feedback and recommendations from other people by doing some online search, too.
- Start building your ideal garage! Now that you found the perfect garage organizing products and systems that will work for you and your space, it's time to break some sweat again. Install the garage organization systems you've purchased, and finally move your things back in - in an orderly manner, of course. :-P
