Spring Cleaning: storage solutions you need for a perfectly organized garage

Spring is now in full swing and there’s no better time to get organized. An easy place to get started with your spring cleaning is in the garage. Whether you are looking to hang all of your tools and rakes or wrangle sports equipment, we’ve put together some of the top choices to help you do just that.

Organizing your garage will be a breeze with these storage solutions:

The most versatile option is the Rubbermaid FastTrack Garage Storage System Tool Hanging Kit. It comes with two rails and a variety of four different hooks for hanging a wide range of tools.

The Rubbermaid FastTrack Garage Storage System allows you to organize your space according to how you use your tools and other equipment: keep lawn equipment nearest the garage door in summer and move it back in the winter, keep your tools together and closest to where you use them most, and arrange cleaning and painting supplies in the areas that make the most sense.

You also have the option of ordering extra rails and individualized hooks that will help you customize the system to your needs. We recommend this choice particularly for smaller garages since it takes up very little space on your garage walls for only $39.99 Prime shipped.

Another option for a track system is the best selling Gladiator Gear Track Wall Channel. It has a double channel design that is rated to hold your heavier items and is also easy to install at $21.86 Prime shipped. You can customize it with the Gladiator Works 8 Pack of Hooks for $9.89. You can even add a bottle opener to it!

Speaking of wall storage, the Wall Control Galvanized Steel Pegboard Tool Organizer is a solid option if you have a lot of tools to store. The pegboard comes with an assortment of hooks, brackets and shelves to work for whatever you might need. This is a bestseller at $59.99 shipped.

If you have the space in your garage, the Safe Rack Overhead Storage is top rated at $219.99 shipped. It comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty (only if purchased from SafeRacks) and can hold up to 600 pounds. You can also add the Deluxe Accessory Hook package for $109.99 shipped to get all of your odds and ends safe up off the floor and out of your way.

For a simpler solution you don’t have to worry about screwing into your walls, there are shelving options. The heavy duty Gladiator Mobile Storage Gear Box Cabinet will keep all of your garage supplies safe and organized. At $255.87 shipped, it comes on casters for easy movement around your garage as your storage needs change. You could also go for the more affordable but still heavy duty steel Edsal Shelving Unit at $50 shipped. It comes in other sizes as well to fit your specific garage.

If you are looking for storage for your taller tools, that also won’t break the bank, Rubbermaid offers a variety of storage options. The Corner Tool Rack is a neat way to save space and store things like rakes, brooms and shovels for $25.81 Prime shipped. Rubbermaid also makes the Deluxe Tool Tower Rack with casters and extra storage for $51.99 shipped.

For anyone that has a lot of sports equipment for themselves or their children, the Rubbermaid Sports Gear Storage Station for $37.49 Prime shipped is a welcome solution. It can fit up to twenty bats, rackets or sticks while also providing a storage shelf and a removable bag that catches the rest of your equipment. If it is golf gear you are looking to store, the Suncast Golf Organizer is top rated and $54.05 shipped. This organizer holds two golf bags and a number of your other accessories.

Bikes are another big item in the garage that a lot of people look to get stored out of the way. Racor’s Two-Bike Stand is a simple way to make sure your bikes always have a parking space. At $27.98 Prime shipped it has a sturdy steel construction and is easy to assemble. If you are looking to save some floor space, Racor’s 2 Bike Stand at $64.98 shipped or their 4 Bike Stand  at $89.88 shipped, is the way to go.
