So many American homeowners live with a landfill attached to their homes. It just takes a lot of work to nudge a car into the garage and luckier still to emerge from the car once it is parked. Homeowners continue to wrestle through the jungle of disorganization on a daily basis.

If you will consider some basic objectives, you can create a vision beyond the clutter that has littered garages during the last 100 years:

Eliminate clutter-buildup that has overtaken your garage.

Start by having a garage sale, give to charity, take a trip to the real landfill, and take a deep breath. Get rid of all the excess that not only blocks entry into the home but the clutter that blocks energy too.

And if you have never had a garage sale, relax. Letting go of years of old baggage and clutter both frees the mind and liberates the heart. It's a fact, Zen Master have 'Monastery Sales' all the time.

The very basic premise in garage organizing is to free up floor space.

However, how does one deal with the inevitable lawn mower, wheelbarrow,snow blower, bicycles, and other large items?

There is so much to deal with!

One method might be to build an enclosed lean-to shed on the side of the garage. Use dimensions of 4' x 8'. This addition will free up valuable floor space in the garage in a heartbeat!

Another option will be the storage shed in the backyard. Many subdivisionsare regulated by covenants and restrictions. One may be required to obtain architectural committee approval before an addition can be built.

This is well worth looking into!

Once you can see it in your minds eye, you can find it. Once of the easiest methods is to create a wall storage solution. There are dozens of options for a well organized garage.

A few solutions such a hooks, racks, custom-made cabinets, and yes, the lowly nail is a solution, but none offer a flexible solution.

Up with Displawallä! Pay a visit to a retail store that displays merchandise on the wall, and these same grooved panels offer the most flexible storage solution for the garage that is available today.

Displawallä is manufactured in 4' x 8' panels. Made with a durable finish, this product needs no painting or maintenance. Drill drywall screws into the grooves of the panels into the studwall in the garage and then install. Hooks fit in the grooves nicely, making placement a snap.

In addition, the hooks are manufactured in varying lengths from one inch to 12 inches, so a variety of objects can be placed anywhere there is a wall. The look, flexibility and durability are all superior benefits from Displawallä. Storage requirements change. You will appreciate having the flexibility of lifting a hook from the grooved panel.

Once the Displawallä is attached to the garage wall, there are no holes to drill or nails to hammer simply arrange or rearrange the hooks, as you desire.

Cabinets permit one to categorize items to be stored and used routinely. Place lawn and garden items such as smaller tools, plant food, and pots in a designated cabinet. Then place automotive products such as motor oil, antifreeze, and other lubricants in another designated cabinet.
