Upgrading Your Garage's Storage Solutions Before 2021 Ends

Aside from Christmas Day being barely two days away, it’s also just a week away before we ring in a New Year. This is the time that most people get rid of items they don’t use anymore. Garage sales are a common sight in the neighborhood. You might even be organizing one yourself. So since you’re decluttering your home and the garage anyway, it’s now time to consider upgrading your storage solutions once you’ve discarded throw-away items. You might think that 2021 is ending anyway so you could just put off fixing your garage again. But the more you let time pass, the lazier you’ll get and probably would end up not fixing your garage at all. Don’t let this happen by putting the last few days of 2021 into good use. You could welcome the New Year in the same high spirits that you’re letting 2021 go. As Marie Kondo would say, if something doesn’t spark joy in you, let them go. Keep the ones that do. And since you’re choosing to keep them, give them the best care so that they’ll last you forever. Here are some garage solutions from FlexiMounts that you should install before putting your items back after a garage sale:

WALL-MOUNTED STORAGE SOLUTIONS

These storage solutions are perfect for items you want to access anytime but also take off from the floor. They’re easy to reach so there won’t be any need to scour through your items if you want to use something you kept here. Just make sure to label everything so it’s easy and hassle-free to locate your objects.

OVERHEAD GARAGE STORAGE SOLUTIONS

For seasonal or items you don’t use frequently, these overhead racks are the better storage options. These are mounted on the ceiling so you might need a ladder to reach for your items.

BIKE RACK

For the athletic homeowner who has an equally active family, a bike rack that can support and carry more than one bike is ideal.

Pass the bike rod through the plate in the left wall and insert the hooks on the right end of the bike rod. Last is to fix the left end of the rod with two screws then plug it into the right end.
