It may not be December 21 yet, but winter is definitely on the way. The leaves are shed, the clocks have been turned back, and you need to organize your Toronto garage storage. It’s best to do the organization now, because when winter really hits, everyone’s tendency is to open the door and put things in the first available space instead of putting them away. Plus, do you really want your garage so cluttered during the winter that you need to park your car in the driveway? It’s easier to de-clutter than it is to constantly get up early to scrape frost off the car’s windows. With our organizational tips and custom garage storage solutions everything will have a place and that place will be easy to locate. Don’t let another winter go by with a messy garage. Tackle the clutter with help from California Closets Toronto.

De-Clutter Your Garage

First and foremost, it’s time to tidy things up. Throw out any empty packages or tools that don’t work. Do a thorough sweep of the garage, clearing out any piles and removing any trash. Now all you’re left with are the essential items and all of the patio furniture that needs to come inside.

Keep Your Seasonal Furniture Tidy With Our Custom Garage Storage Systems

If you leave your patio furniture outside during the winter, it likely won’t be usable in the spring. To protect the longevity of seasonal items, it’s best to store them in the garage for the winter. California Closets offers some heavy duty hooks that can store your patio furniture up and out of the way. Another thing they can be used for is bike storage. Like your patio furniture, bikes left out to the elements during the winter time will not be usable come spring. Finally, as an added bonus for your Toronto garage storage, don’t forget to assign a set of hooks to hold your lawnmower in the winter (savvy organizers will use these same hooks to handle the snow blower in the summer). This keeps bulky items out of the way during the off-season and gives you more floor space to work with.

Hook Up With Our Custom Garage Storage Systems

Other things that could be cluttering up your Toronto garage storage are rakes, shovels, and gardening tools. If left leaning against the wall, they can get tangled up, often causing them to slide into a heap on the ground. Why not try some of our hooks? Just slide the handle of the shovel or other accessory over top of the hook. This will enable you to free up some more floor space, and organized your garage.

For smaller items, you could also add our aluminum tracks and pegboard to your custom garage storage systems. With these, you can arrange your hooks and also add accessories likes bins and baskets for keeping smaller items, such as nails or screws, in an organized manner.
