Grungy Garage No More: How to Organize It

Use this search feature to quickly find the information you’re looking for.



Family housework, of course, doesn't stop at the house.

Enter the garage (which you probably already did today). It's a common entry point that frequently becomes known as the "big black dump hole."

Here's what you need to know to get it organized.

Be sure to get the kids involved, too.

By its very nature, this room is a no man's (or in my case, woman's) land.

It isn't exactly part of the house, but it's not outdoors, either.

As a result, this transitional area can become junky in a heartbeat.

We see it only as we cruise through on the way from the car, usually shedding backpacks, shoes and umbrellas in our wake.

Oh, no problem, we think, we'll pick them up later. But we rarely make time to do that.

The good news is that this room can be both a great storage area and a navigable entry zone - if it's organized.
