The clutter in U.S. garages is so overwhelming that 36% of people can’t even fit their cars inside. Parking outside leaves your car vulnerable to theft and damage. To combat garage clutter, consider utilizing the overhead storage space that often goes unused.
Hangers and hooks will keep your bulky items out of your usable garage space
To maximize your garage space and keep it organized, consider utilizing ceiling storage options. Hooks and hangers are great for storing bulky items like bicycles and sports gear. By getting these items off the floor and onto the ceiling, you can free up space for other activities in your garage.
To achieve the ultimate in garage storage, it’s all about racks & tracks (but they can cost you)
For larger storage needs like boxes of memorabilia or seasonal decorations, consider using racks and tracks. Racks are mounted on the ceiling and hold items on a platform, while track systems allow you to slide storage containers into tracks. Labeling each box can help you stay organized. While retractable racks offer more storage space, they can be expensive, with some options costing up to $2,000. Make sure to consider weight capacity and professional installation when choosing an overhead storage solution for your garage.
