If your garage is too narrow for most shelving systems, here’s a great way to store a lot of stuff in very little space. Hang several multilevel wire racks on the wall—the same racks you use in a pantry. They hold a ton and hug the wall, so they don’t get in the way.
Bungee cords always seem to end up in a tangled mess. To keep them organized, screw a scrap piece of closet shelving to the wall and hook the cords along its length. It’ll be easy to find the one you need.
Tired of digging out your extension cord every time you want to use it in the garage? Try this easy tip: Attach a retractable cord reel to your garage ceiling and plug your cord into the unused outlet mounted near your garage door opener. Your cord will always be centrally located and easily accessible, yet out of the way when you’re not using it.
