Organized Garage
It's For Your Car

An organized garage will be for you and your car first, not your stuff. So many people see the huge expanse of their garage as a gigantic storage unit or dumping ground for all their excess stuff.

It is possible to store things properly as long as you keep it to the most useful items and you use this site to get some good garage organizing products - Utilize Garage Space at Organize.com

They don't seem to think of their car as stuff at that point since it can easily sit outside. Do your garage organizing with your car in the garage.

The best way to make your garage more inviting, easier to use and more interesting to do things in is to clean it often especially give it a good spring cleaning.

When I bought my first house in the City it had a large 2.5 car detached garage. I had a Honda Accord and my fiance had a small Hyundai. Both cars fit easily into the garage.

There was nothing in the garage attic and not much on the sides or the front.

My fiance did have a lot of stuff. As soon as we moved in the house filled immediately. It had 4 small bedrooms. We were in the master bedroom. I used one bedroom as an office and she used the other two bedrooms for storage of her things.

As soon as we were married a few months later we were expecting our first child.

With a baby on the way, my bedroom office was moved into the basement to make room for the baby's room.

My wife quickly started to buy everything that was available for babies. The house was overwhelmed. The basement was stuffed and so was the attic.

Then she looked to the garage, my beautiful, big organized garage filled with 2 cars and a few tools. I could easily get into my car when it was in the garage. Even when both cars were in the garage it still looked open. Not for long.

Within another few months, the garage was packed. Both cars fit but getting the car door open was another matter. I really had to squeeze myself to get in the car.

After our first child arrived, the first major remodeling project started and all the stuff that had to be moved for the remodeling was moved into the spot into the garage where my car was.

I never got my car back into that garage while we lived there. That was 6 more years. Six winters of scraping ice and snow every morning.

Having an organized garage means to keep your cars in your garage. Don't have so much stuff that you can't fit your most important possession, your car in the garage.
