How to Create a Perfectly Organised Garage

Whatever your garage dreams, we’ve got the tips and tricks to help you get started and turn your cluttered room into an organised and spacious zone!

Garage Full Of Storage Clutter

The Big Clear Out

Let’s face it, any unwanted items from your home go straight to your garage and it’s now become a home for the shelves that were never put up, paint that was never used and bikes that haven’t been ridden for years! It’s time for a clear-out and here’s how you can get started:

  • Set aside a whole day or two so you can really get stuck in.
  • Go through everything – this includes boxes that are still there from when you moved in!
  • Rope some friends in who have no personal attachment to your things as this will help you get rid of items you don’t need.
