Organize Garage
You and Your Car

Organize garage, what does that mean?

Think of getting home late at night and you are exhausted. You just want to get into the house and go to bed. Then you groggily get out of the car and the car door bangs on the shovels hanging on the wall, door ding. The shovel falls on your head and you curse under your breathe. You stumble over a skateboard and barely stay upright. When you finally stagger into the house you are not pleasantly tired and looking forward to a warm, soft bed you are angry, frustrated and your head hurts.

There is no type of cabinets or shelving that will help you to organize garage if you have too much stuff.

What I like to think about is getting into my car easily without banging the car door on the side of the garage or into a shelf or something hanging. I hate having to walk sideways along the side of my car. I get super annoyed whenever someone parks close to me in a parking lot and I have to somehow squeeze into my car.

Why would I set up my garage to do that myself every day?

I don't.

I set it up so I can just get in. I don't have to walk through a gauntlet of hanging tools and duck my head under low shelves. I have what I need stored in front of the car and some on the passenger side. The driver side remains clear. No matter what.

I do love the garage organizing systems. They are very beautiful and appear to hold a lot of stuff.

Here is a link to one of the best resources for finding products for your garage:

Utilize Garage Space at Organize.com

I'm just saying that you want to use those types of things in the proper place to organize. Garage shelving systems, whether they are homemade or store bought will help you to store what you need stored. But you want to keep in mind the main thing.

Your car and your ability to get into and out of your car easily, all the time. You have your normal daily routine that you will probably be able to work around a crowded garage.

Millions of people do. But think of how easy it would be, how nice, to just get in your car without struggle.

All those frustrating things can be avoided if you just leave that space as wide open as possible.

Organize garage around that idea.
