Best Garage Storage Method
Keeps Everything
Safe and Secure
Best Garage Storage Method is defined as the safest, most secure and convenient storage
container or storage system for each item you plan to store in the garage or elsewhere.
To decide the Best Storage Method, you must first determine how it needs to be stored.
* Can you hang it on or in something
* Can you place it in or on something
* Is it a gas or liquid that needs to be stored in something?
* Does it need to be in an airtight or waterproof container?
* Is it sensitive to environmental impacts like sunlight?
* Is it in one piece or does it consist of many parts? How large are the parts of the item?
(pellets like granular dog food or is it in can)
These and other questions will be answered when you request the Take Inventory Worksheet and create a Inventory
List of everything you want to store in your garage.
Placing each item in the correct Storage Container or on or in the correct Garage Organizers is key element
of Creating A Place For Everything * Keeping Everything Safely and Securely In It's Place.
Choices of Garage Organizers Includes:
Garage Floor Organizers
Garage Wall Organizers
Garage Ceiling Organizers

Vinyl wardrobe bags are ideal for hanging clothes in an closet.

storage.
Best Garage Storage Method - Tool Carts
Rolling tool carts with extendable handles like carry-on luggage also let you divide tools according to the
project.
It is important to do your homework up front to provide storage containers or Garage Organizers that keep each
item you store in the garage, safe from damage by the elements.
Flammable Liquids
Always keep gasoline cool, stored in a tightly sealed, approved safety gasoline container that is prominently
labeled and out of reach of children.
Best Garage Storage Method - Books
Books are especially vulnerable to environmental factors like temperature and humidity. While a large collection
of books may fair better in a metal cabinet, moisture can still damage them.
Book storage in cardboard boxes is a risk. Silverfish, certain types of roaches, and bookworms are attracted to
the starchy materials found in book bindings and could even eat their way through the boxes to get to the books
themselves. Plastic containers are a safer choice than cardboard boxes. Don't pack too tightly—books need a degree
of ventilation.
Documents are especially vulnerable to environmental factors like temperature and humidity. While a large amount
of documents may fair better in a metal cabinet, moisture can still damage them.
Document storage in cardboard boxes is a risk. Silverfish, certain types of roaches, and worms are attracted to
the starchy materials found in paper and could even eat their way through the boxes to get to the documents
themselves. Plastic containers are a safer choice than cardboard boxes.
Whenever possible, documents and photographs should be stored with protectors.
Once you have determined the best Storage Method you are ready to plan the Best Storage Place for everything.
Once you have a prioritized Take Inventory
List with categories, you can begin to create a Garage Organizing Plan.
