It’s that time of year when people’s garages and sheds get a workout. Between gardening, outdoor activities, summer rec leagues, and general use, it’s key to keep your garage or shed organized. Here’s our easy guide of summer shed tips.
- As the seasons change, so do our needs for a backyard shed or garage. Reshuffle how you’ve got your items stored so that this season’s frequently accessed items aren’t buried behind things that aren’t being used this time of year.
- Simple storage can make a big difference when it comes to staying organized. One easy solution for keeping your tools handy is with pegboard. With so many options for customization, pegboard can do a lot of organizing work in a small space. You can even find some inspiration for creating a custom design from our tutorial here: https://www.tuffshed.com/not-your-average-pegboard/
- No one likes a dirty floor, even when it comes to the backyard shed. Spending a little extra time to sweep and tidy your things can make a big difference in the neatness of your shed. It’s easy to open the door and toss in tools or equipment but that can start a slippery, messy slope. Spend a few extra minutes (or even seconds) and put the items back where they belong. A neat floor can lead to a neat shed.
With these Summer Shed Tips, you’ll have a tidy shed all season long with only a little effort up front.
I want to take my gardening hobby more seriously now by investing in more equipment and tools, so I need to get a shed built in my backyard soon to use as storage space for them. I appreciate your suggestion when you told us to add a pegboard to our shed since this will help us organize the tools better. I’ll be sure to consider this once I find a contractor to hire for my custom-made shed at home soon.
