Garage & Home Organisation & Storage Tips

Garage Organisation & Storage Solutions

It’s not just your Garage that gets untidy and full of those items that we someday hope to find a home for, your house can very simply and rapidly become a hoarding place for your personal belongings.

With the winter almost out of the way, this is the time for you to be thinking about organising your garage or your home, a time to de-clutter, to find a suitable storage place for all your personal items.

Here are a few tips for you on how best to do this:

Hallway – Most of us have a collection of winter clothing such as scarves, hats, coats that can take up a lot of space. I would suggest that now the winter is coming to an end, now would be a good time to put these into storage somewhere either in a cupboard, wardrobe or box them and store them carefully in your garage.

Lounge – The biggest offending clutter items in this room tend to be CD’s, DVD’s or game that we don’t use anymore so why not take the time now to box them and store them safely and carefully out of the way. We use this room a lot and most of us like to display our more treasured items such as trophies or photographs, don’t let your living room get cluttered and take the shine off your more treasured display items

Kitchen – Our kitchens can be a constant source of frustration and full of clutter. We stuff things into kitchen drawers and most if not all of us will have surplus items that we never use. Too much cutlery, the odd electric blender we never use and containers for food storage that have never been opened. Get all the clutter out of the drawers, box those items you don’t use and store them carefully in your loft or garage. We all use our kitchen every day and it’s so much nicer when the kitchen is clutter free

Closets – How many of us have last year’s fashion items stored in the closet, items we will never wear again? Now is a good time to clear out those closet items, box them and ship them out to the charity shop. If you are intent on keeping them, box them carefully and find a suitable storage place for them. Think about fixing some storage solutions, maybe wall storage panels, storage baskets, wall storage kits onto the walls to prove you with additional wall storage.

Office – If you have an office at home, storage is vitally important. You may need to store old records or files carefully and securely. Again, think about storage boxes or storage cabinets that will help keep your records safe and secure should you need to call on them in the future

Garage – Finally, the biggest culprit of them all, the king of clutter. Think about organising your garage properly, not just moving items around and piling them into a corner, out of sight is not always out of mind. You have more space in your garage than you think. Many people over look at value of using their garage wall storage space and there are plenty of options available for garage storage. Jump onto Google and type Garage Storage Kits and see the options that are available to you. Some of the garage storage kits are designed specifically to store items from the garage, bikes, golf clubs, gardening equipment and are really easy on the budget!

Storage Ideas to help you sell your home this spring

We may still be feeling the cold and seeing frost on the car in the morning but now Valentine’s Day is upon us, it’s a sure sign that a change in seasons is upon us.

With the change of seasons and the coming of spring inevitably a number of you will be considering selling your homes this year and if that’s the case, don’t overlook some simple but highly relevant tips on how to stay ahead of the competition.

Despite all the gloom and doom of the property market some agents are reporting impressive sales figures with some reporting sales of over 5% higher than the previous year.

Some of us though will overlook the basics as we get all caught up with all that’s involved in selling your home so here’s some tips to help you sell your home quicker:

Clutter Control

Whether you are selling or not this one is always a great idea. With the spring comes the ‘Spring Clean’ and if you are thinking of selling, a good clear up of all that household clutter with create the feeling of much more space in your home. Think about storing household items up and off the floor. Whether you store in the pantry or the utility room or under the stairs, try fixing some Home Storage Panels onto the walls and you’ll be amazed at how clutter free your home becomes and how ‘spacey’ the house looks to purchasers. If it helps you sell the Storage Kits will be the best investment you could make.

Garage Storage

If you are anything like to majority of us, the garage gets used for just about everything other than for garaging the car. You need to create a perception of how much space there is inside and outside of your home. Also the proposed purchase may be a car enthusiast and a nice garage maybe high on the list of priorities for them.

So think about fitting some Garage Storage Kits to the walls of your garage and create an impression of a well organised and spacey garage. The chances are they will only take a quick look at the garage so you will only have a couple of minutes at the most to impress them.

Many estate agents report Garage Space as being a high priority for purchasers so visit our website to get some Garage Storage Ideas and some low cost Garage Storage Solutions to that clutter problem
