Five Tips to Organize Your Seattle Garage

Five Tips to Organize Your Seattle Garage - Greenwood HardwareThroughout the year, it is normal for the extra stuff to get stashed out of sight. Maybe you were in a rush to get the holiday décor down and didn’t have the time to put it all away in a neat and organized fashion. If your garage has become a bit of an eyesore or a catch-all for the things you don’t use regularly, but still need around, you need to organize. Our team at Greenwood Hardware has some tips to help you take back your garage.

Go Up

One of the biggest mistakes people make when it comes to shelving is they keep it at just one or two levels. You can go all the way up the wall. Wire shelving units are perfect for putting in the garage. They can be adjusted to your desired spacing and height. The clean look of the wire makes it easy for you to see everything.

Tool Holders

These handy devices are often overlooked when it comes time to organize a space. Mount as many as you need to hang all your garden tools, brooms, mops and so on. This way you can find just what you need and you know they have a secure place to store.

Cabinets

Garage cabinets are great for stashing items you would rather not be seen all the time. You don’t have to stick with boring white cabinets. You can paint them a vivid color to give your garage space some character.

Labels

Labels will be your best friend, especially when you have a busy family! Labels can be drawn on cabinet doors or make cool signs with the kids one weekend to hang on the shelves. For families with little kids, pictures cut from magazines and then glued to the signs ensure they know right where to put their toys when they are done.

Large Hooks

These are great for hanging extension cords, bikes, and even hoses. They will help keep things off the ground, leaving plenty of floor space for your car. Yes! You can actually park your car in your garage once you have it neat and tidy.
