Declutter and Sort

The first step to an organized garage is decluttering. Start by taking everything out of the garage and sorting items into categories such as tools, sports equipment, seasonal items, and so on. 

This initial process will help you see what you have and what you can get rid of. Donate, recycle, or dispose of items that you no longer need or use. For the remaining goods, invest in bins, clear containers, and labeled boxes to store these items.

Utilize Walls, Ceilings, and Corners

Maximize your storage space by making use of your walls, ceiling, and corners You can do this by installing shelves, cabinets, pegboards, or slat wall systems to keep items off the floor and neatly organized. 

Making use of the surrounding area not only saves space but also makes them easily accessible, so make the most of what you have!
