Make Room for Summer Objects with These Garage Organization Ideas

It’s that time again: spring cleaning days. You can get ahead of this chore for your outdoor area with some garage organization ideas that will also allow you to make room for new or old summer objects. Pick one or more and get yourself organized in a flash.

Begin by giving yourself the perfect place to store your summer camping gear. The Loft Shelf is made of durable powder coated wire in a light taupe shade, and it mounts on the rails to your garage door. Store the cooler, tent, camp chairs and other summer items on the shelf for easy viewing and access while keeping everything out of the way. You can even suspend another shelf beneath it to give yourself more storage space. When the time comes for the first summer weekend getaway, you’ll know right where everything is.

The Fishing Rod Rack provides you with the perfect place to store the rods, reels and other items you need for your favorite summer sport. The wooden unit is mounted on casters so you can wheel it where you need it. There are slots to support your fishing rods as well as hooks for hanging other items. A large drawer in the base gives you room for storing your lures and other fishing supplies. You’ll be able to keep everything neat and organized and when you’re ready to head for the lake, roll the Fishing Rod Rack right up to the back of your car and unload your gear quickly and easily.

Another wheeled organizer that keeps your yard tools neat and handy is the Tool Rack with Wheels. Long or short handled tools can stand in the side-access slots, ready for you to grab with very little effort. The casters allow you to position this handy organizer wherever you need it. Roll it into the driveway so you’ll be able to trim, rake, shovel and sweep without having to return to the garage. All your summer tools—broom, shovel, rake and more—will stay organized while they stand ready to go to work when and where you need them.

If you prefer to keep your long handled tools on the wall, the Five Position Tool Holder will do the job. Up to five brooms, mops, shovels or other tools stay secure in the slots, held in place by the patented “magic” ball technology. It doesn’t matter how large or small the handle circumference is because this technology can handle anything. You can mount this on a wall in the garage or inside your laundry room. Wherever you need to hang something with a handle, you’ll appreciate this handy organizer.

Grab your watering can and garden shovel and store them on the Garden and Garage Organizer. This handy wire unit has plenty of shelves to hold flower pots, bags of soil or containers of lawn feed. A bin on the side provides the perfect place for you to store your shovel or rake in an upright position. The enameled metal is easy to keep clean, too, as dirt will fall right through the wide-mesh. But this attractive unit is also sturdy enough to hold plenty of weight.

Gather all of your gardening supplies into one of the lovely Folding Potting Benches. Pots, spades, gloves, bags of potting soil or feed will look tidy and organized when you load the shelves or lattice back. You will also have plenty of surface are to work on your flowers and potted plants. The bench is made of sturdy hardwood and finished with a natural oil stain. The fact that it folds away means that you can store it during the damp winter months. But order one today and put it to work on your new garden. If you’re not into gardening but enjoy entertaining outdoors, this bench also can serve as a buffet or bar area for guests. It’s a versatile and lovely piece that will provide you with years of pleasure and utility.

The Wood Potting Bench with Recessed Storage gives you an even more convenient work space. The recessed area is perfect for tools and the accessories that you need when working on your potted plants. One half of the upper surface is latticed so that you can push soil and debris out of sight quickly and easily into the space beneath it. The bench is made of Fir and finished with a natural oil base that is as lovely as it is durable. A large shelf across the bottom and a narrower shelf at the top of the bench provide you with all the extra storage space you need.

Any of these organizers will give you the room you need for yard tools, garden supplies or summer project equipment. Choose one or more to get your garage organized and summer under way.
