Writen by Anne Clarke

If you have a garage, you need to be organized, tools and all. A pool of course, requires a lot of chemical items, as well as the common recreational accessories such as rafts, noodles and lounge chairs to be neatly tucked away. Or, if you have too many tools for your yard or garden and too few places to store them in the garage, you will need outdoor home storage solutions like these:

·Garage

Organizing a garage is simple. You will need more than just a tool bench, but there is usually plenty of space in a normal-sized garage for storage of hand tools, power tools and more if you use some of the suggestions below.

There is usually plenty of space on the walls of your garage from which you can hang certain hand tools etc. So tap a nail in, or install some strong pegs and or hooks, and hang small tools, garden gloves, and even items like shovels, brooms and saws.

Consider as well items such as extra shelving for your tools etc. There is a lot of space on the walls around your garage, and installing shelves is a great way to organize without taking up too much of your car space.

You can also use storage bins to store things in your garage. Bins are a great way to have quick access to items you need and organize them in such a way that they will be simple to find.

·Poolside

The following poolside home storage solutions listed below are practical and very effective.

Often people will store rafts, water wings and other floating water toys in a nice shed along with lounge chairs, skimmers and removable pool-covers.

A storage bin that locks is a good idea, so that small children will not get into dangerous chemicals like chlorine. Another idea for storing chemicals for checking chlorine levels etc is perhaps to keep these items on a high shelf in the shed or garage. Most importantly when you decide where to store your pool chemicals you want to be absolutely certain that they remain out of the reach of children.

·Garden

The most beautiful kind of storage merchandise for your gardening materials is the garden bench. A garden bench is often pleasing to the eye, and serves a dual function as a lovely, relaxing place to sit as well as a place to store various gardening items.

To repeat myself, the storage bin is always a good idea, with compartments for gardening gloves, shears, and other small gardening items—bins work nicely.

However, there are many tools for gardening that cannot be placed in tiny compartments such as storage bins ad will require more space. If you cannot fit these into your garage or anywhere else, a tool shed is one idea for storing many gardening items.

Many of these items for your garage, pool, or garden can be found at great prices, and when necessary, are quite easy to assemble. Good luck finding the home storage supplies you need to keep your home looking tidy and well kept.
