To remedy the situation, we helped them out with a top-to-bottom garage makeover<s>.<\/s><\/p>\n<p>To organize a garage, take everything out of the garage and separate items into piles to keep, piles to donate, and piles to throw away. This culling process gives you a clean slate and a smaller list of things to return to the garage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-choosing-a-garage-floor-covering\">Choosing a Garage Floor Covering<\/h2>\n<p>One addition to help a refurbished garage is interlocking PVC floor tiles. Adding these tiles is an easy way to the floor. Tiles create an attractive, comfortable, and slip-resistant surface. We used durable, environmentally friendly tiles from Norsk made of 100% recycled materials.<\/p>\n<p>The 18-inch x 18-inch tiles have a raised diamond grid pattern for better traction. They snap together, and you can cut them with a utility knife for custom fits.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-installing-a-storage-container-rack\">Installing a Storage Container Rack<\/h2>\n<p>Plastic storage containers neatly organize smaller items. When stacked, they make it difficult to access boxes that aren\u2019t on top. So, we built a rack that allows containers to slide in and out for easy access.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-6aa1badc\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-781ecde3\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-781ecde3\">\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-634f7e38\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-634f7e38 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Storage Container Rack\" title=\"Storage Container Rack\" data-lazy-src=\"blob:https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/c1df8041-7da7-4ee3-9d48-427fcd09fbca\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-634f7e38 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"blob:https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/c1df8041-7da7-4ee3-9d48-427fcd09fbca\" alt=\"Storage Container Rack\" title=\"Storage Container Rack\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-f40dfa4b gb-headline-text\">Image Credit: Canva<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-1fd4f106\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-1fd4f106\">\n<p>The rack has 2 x 4 framing with 1 x 2 cleats to hold containers in place. This DIY storage solution keeps things organized for quick retrieval.<\/p>\n<p>We also built a large sliding drawer with 1 x 4 sides and a plywood bottom. That lets the owners take advantage of an unused nook. Casters on the bottom and legs on one end allow the drawer to roll in and out smoothly. A handle on the leg end offers an easy grip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Watch our video on <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/garage\/video\/simple-garage-storage-solutions\/\">Simple Garage Storage Solutions<\/a> for more tips on how to organize storage in your garage.
