Top Tips For Organising Your Garage

When it comes to keeping your house in order, it is important that you make the most of your forgotten spaces i.e. the garage. We all have difficulty finding a home for stray bits and bobs, however, if you know the tricks of the trade things can be a lot easier.

DIY Tools
To keep your garage floor clear and leave plenty of room for your care. Use metal shelving to keep DIY tools organised.

Gardening Tools
Gardening tools are best kept together in a large chest. This stops the tools from taking up too much room and allows akwardly shaped tools to be easily stacked on top of each other.

Screws and Nails
Screws and Nails are so difficult to store and keep together however luckily there are quite a few good solutions for storage. The easiest method is to collect empty jam jars, pots and containers and then store all the loose nuts and bolts, screws and nails together. A more complex but elegant solution is to glue magnets onto tins which can then be stuck to a magnetic strip on the wall, keeping your screws organised and easy to access.

Paint Cans
One handy tip when it comes to storing paint cans is to paint the side of each can with the paint inside it. This allows you to see at a glance what colour paint is in each can.

Bikes
Bikes can take up valuable space in your garage so it is recommended that you make the best possible use of the area by storing bikes in the ceiling space using specialist bike mounts.

Shoes
Shoes can easily sprawl and take up lots of space. One easy solution for keeping them organised is to buy a shoe rack which will help keep them tidy and prevent them from being crushed or damaged.

Household Necessities
Catagorise all your household items into boxes for different uses and label them clearly. for example put everything for sewing in one box and everything for polising shoes in another

High Value Contents Insurance
When your garage has been organised you’ll notice that it contains a lot of valuable items. Considering the fact that garages are not always as secure as other areas of your house it is important to consider contents insurance as this will provide you with peace of mind and support if something bad does happen. Getting a competive contents insurance qoute is an incredibly simple process. You can simply enter your personal details and requirements online and you will recieve competive quotations allowing you to get the best value for money.
