Clever overhead storage idea

[loanoma18]

I just had a "Why didn't I think of that?" moment. This is just so quick and simple versus building racks. Not mine, but very cool.

I like the idea, especially for my camping gear. Wish I had room to do such though.

I think I would hate this.

I think it would close the garage off / make it feel smaller.

I think it would make the garage darker.

I think I would forget what is in there (even if the box was labeled).

For me, I would rather have the stuff stacked in the attic.

Grumpy- good points.

I'm not really fond of the execution, its pretty claustrophobic. But, it doesn't look like this guy's garage is a working one. looks like he wanted to find a way to completely stuff his garage with **** and still fit his car inside.

Great idea, though. The possibilities are endless, there are plastic bins in pretty much any size and shape imaginable. I'd like to see a shallower bin placed above the open garage door.

That type of storage might be good above the garage door opening, as opposed to building a shelf or hanging a rack. You can use bins that are more shallow if space is tight. It's a decent idea, as proven by the several threads that were made about it.

All that effort into some place to store his tennis shoe collection or whatever and the whole garage is still only lit by a single bare incandesant bulb.
