I store all of my scrap pieces of wood in a round 55 gal trash can next to my bandsaw. If I were to do it over, I'd go with a square can because 99% of my scraps aren't round. Long boards get stored in the rafters above my shop and sheet goods lean up against the wall in the garage.

Steel racks. And for the shorter scraps I have 4 or 5 5gallon buckets. One for angle iron, tube, square, flat, etc.

I built this a few years ago. It uses heavy duty shelf brackets on the front for adjustability. Footprint is 4x8 feet and holds sheet goods on the back side.

I have racks similar to mikec and amcguy, its 1/4"x3" flat stock that is bolted to the wall, with 2"x2"x1/4" angle iron welded to it, with 2"x1/8" flat welded to the angle so stuff dont roll off. They are about 6-7' tall.....work great
