IMS's 1 car garage clean up.

[IMStuner]

I'm finally getting sick of my messy garage and really need to reorganize it. It's one car garage measuring 14.43 ft wide x 28.96 ft long. This is what it look like when moved in 3 years ago.

Here's what it looks like right now.

I'm not sure how or where to begin in my garage but i figured I need to move 3 items out. The lawnmower, generator and snowblower. So I went up to Reed Ferry in NH and purchased a American Classic 6x8 shed with double doors. It's set to get delivered in March.

I have a lot of things piled on the floor and figured I would need shelving, so I purchased 2 additional Gladiator 72 in. H x 77 in. W x 24 in. D 4-Shelf Welded Steel Garage Shelving Unit. In hope of being able to use the vertical space.

I'm looking into combining all myt tools from my Viper, Snap-On toolbox and Matco big tool cart into a Lista model 900 triple bank.

I currently have 2 wood benches in the garage which I will go down to one Strong-Hold table with 6 Drawers for added storage.

While I was in the garage cleaning up the stuff I upgraded the current 30 inch TV to a 55 and mounted it. This probably not going to help me in speed up my clean up but at least I'll be entertained.

With the help of my wife, she measured my garage and here's so some basic layout we came up with. We used meters since she didn't know how to change it to inches on the Bosch laser finder

Let's see if we can get this wrapped up in the next 4 months.

Subscribing! I have a single and like to see how other people set there spaces up.

6x8 is going to make it awkward for something big like a snowblower, especially with a door on the long edge. It's going to take up almost the full 6' depth and be in the way.

Also, think about how to handle snow melt when the snow blower is in the shed. It will pool and refreeze in our winters. When I rebuild my shed, it will get a small section of deck boards instead of plywood to allow it to drain

Good luck on the organization project.

Thanks for the reminder. I forgot to mention the snowblower will be in the garage during the winter. We wanted a 10x10 shed but we have limited space in the back. I'm going to remeasure the back yard and see if we can squeeze a 8x10 or maybe a 10x10.

Sold the last motorcycle in the house and cleared some room on the right of the garage. Temporary setting up the 2 pallet racks on the right until I get my other stuff in.

So I finally purchased a Strong-Hold work bench back in August and moved it into my garage. The bench is a beast.
