It doesn’t matter if it’s the season for\u00a0leaf-raking, snow-shoveling or landscaping. An\u00a0orderly garage should be a\u00a0year-round life goal.<\/p>\n

Keep loose screws, nails and drill bits\u00a0together with a piece foam insulation.<\/h2>\n

\"styrofoam<\/a>Photo:\u00a0ribalych<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Build a space-saving fold down workbench.<\/h2>\n

\"fold<\/a>Photos: imgur<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

This guy<\/a> will show you how to do it.<\/p>\n

Or if your tools are just for show, buy one<\/a>.<\/h2>\n

\"fold<\/a>Photo:\u00a0benchsolution<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Stack\u00a0bikes.<\/h2>\n

\"stacked<\/a>Photo: Reddit<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Or hang them from the ceiling.<\/h2>\n

\"hanging<\/a>Photo: Saris<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Use a\u00a0shoe organize to keep your paints in order.<\/h2>\n

\"shoe<\/a>Photo:\u00a0hisugarplumsblog<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Magnetic strips will keep your metal tools and tool accessories easily accessible.<\/h2>\n

Use a slat wall to hang storage racks and\u00a0bins.<\/h2>\n

\"slat<\/a>Photo:\u00a0houseandhome<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Keep\u00a0your garbage bags on a paper towel roll.<\/h2>\n

\"paper<\/a>Photo: Pinterest<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Build yourself a screwdriver\u00a0rack that doubles as a coat rack.<\/h2>\n
