If you can no longer park your car in your garage, it is time to get your garage back. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to use your garage for what it is made for – your car? After all, that is the primary function of a garage with remote operated doors that open mechanically. Not only will parking your car in your garage protect it from the elements of weather, but if you have an attached garage, you will be protected from the elements as you get in and out of your car. Do You Really Need it All? Then again, you might have no problem parking one car in your garage. If you stop and take a moment, however, to look at the interior of your garage, most people will realize that too much junk has gotten the best of them. How much of the stuff and junk that is stored in your garage actually gets used? Do you really need it all? Would there be a better place for it? There is a good chance that if you start digging through the stuff in your garage, you will find plenty of items that can go elsewhere more appropriate in the house – or can simply be thrown away. What’s in Your Garage? Garages tend to be the catch-all places that people store items they have nowhere else to store. That inflatable pool with all of the accessories that your spouse got for a good deal at a yard sale – will it ever be used? Is it even in working condition? And maybe you have numerous tools piled haphazardly around the garage - there has to be a better way to store things! There is! It is difficult in today’s fast-paced world to find the time to tackle projects, so you may need to step back for a moment and take a look at what is stored in your garage. Like a Carson storage unit, most garages have more vertical space than they do floor space. You need to use that vertical space to your advantage. For instance, you could hang hooks on one wall of the garage to hang tools that are taking up precious real estate in your garage. On hooks, they are not only easy to find, they also clear out floor, counter, or cabinet space in your garage that can be used for other items. Seasonal Items Seasonal items tend to find their way to the garage once the season is over. It’s so easy to toss the sporting gear into the garage at the end of a season. There is a better way to store seasonal items, especially if they are preventing you from parking your car in the garage during the winter, when parking your car in the garage is most important to protect your car from rusting and to protect yourself from getting cold or wet when you are leaving or coming home.
