Today we will talk about a garage or, more precisely, an organized garage.

And the question we want to ask you: what is your garage like now? Clean and organized or total chaos? If you chose the second option, be at ease. This is not just your problem. Do you know why? A garage is one of those places in the house that serves much more than just storing cars.

But let's get to the point. Learn how to organize a garage. We have collected indispensable tips for you so that you can use your garage as a storage space and thus better manage everything you need to organize there. Just take a look!

How to Organize a Garage

1. Define the Functions of Your Garage

The main function of a garage is to store a car. But in practice, everyone knows that it's not quite like that. A garage can easily be turned into a workshop, storage room or anything else you can imagine. But it's important to have a clear understanding of the main functions of this space, beyond just protecting your car.

For example, if you decide that it will be a place for your workshop, then ensure organization that includes this functionality rather than improvising the space.

2. Clean Out and Rearrange Everything

After the first step, it's time to take everything out. Clear your garage. This way you can get a better view of the available space and decide how best to organize it. While cleaning out your garage, you might also notice issues with moisture and water infiltration into the walls, mold and mildew stains, as well as other details that need repair.

If any exist, restore the walls, remove stains and leaks and complete with a new coating.

3. Sort and Organize Items by Categories

The next step is to start sorting and organizing everything you found in the garage. Divide it into sectors as much as possible. Create a sector for items related to paint, such as paint cans, rollers and brushes, for example. If you have gardening tools, it's also good to separate them from other items and so on.

4. Hooks Are Welcome

To complement the function of shelves, install a few hooks. They are very useful and can be used for many things, from storing bicycles to everyday tools.

5. Hook Board

A hook board, also known as an Eucatex board, is made of wood with many hollow balls. This type of board is a handy tool for garage organization, as it allows hanging multiple items using hooks.

6. Leave Space for Your Car

It might seem too obvious to say this, but remember to leave enough space for the car to enter and exit the garage. This means among other things, removing items from the floor, as well as adjusting shelf height so they are not too low and don't hit your car.

Another important tip: keep the shelves as far from the car as possible. This is a safety measure, since any falling item could damage your vehicle.
