Garage to Myself

[nickflic3]

Only there's a catch- I have to organize all this and still manage to fit an e30 in there
(crappy cell pix :???:)



Any ideas?? These boxes are all filled with stuff we had from when we lived in an appartment about 6 years ago. You would think we'd have more room for it all now that we are in a house :hitler:

We might also be moving towards the end of the year so I'm wondering if its worth trying to unpack it all right now.

Snapped a couple of my/my mom's daily(currently trying to find her an e60 or A6). 1993 Toyota Camry V6 XLE:



I swear the Macco paint attracts dust and the dam thing burns oil like it drinks gas but can't complain, Its served us well with almost 250k miles so far.

Get some garage shelving & put it against the wall on your side & some in-between the cars.

nobody's looked in those boxes for 6 years? throw most of it out. They won't even know it's gone if you don't tell them.

This. And if you have to keep it i know they make overhead storage units that hang from the cieling.

If a business manager leaves 7 years of important documents piled in a heap on the garage floor, they might consider a different career. sandwich artist? ;)

my garage was worse than that. i mean with things stacked up by the walls it went from a 2 car garage to a signle car garage. Just organize and stack things nicely and you should have enough space towork with

your lucky you have a garage to organize.

Someone told me that if you still have things in boxes after a year of a move just throw it away without looking in the box.

Heard this too, just both my parents are too busy to go in with me and see what they still want/need. Ceiling idea just might work...

Think I'll put some in between the cars as we already have make shift tool shelves against the wall.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts guys!

yes organize, put shelves against the walls where all ther crap is now piled, get one of those dinky storage sheds and put the mower, bbq and bikes out there

looks like a plotter sitting in that mess

[DEV0 E30]

That's an easy mess to organize. As stated you could probably throw away/garage sale half of it. Simple shelves are a great idea, plus you can take them when you move.

Hmm, we have a relatively big back yard so I guess I could run the shed idea by my dad. Then I could store all the yard tools in there and have even more room :)

I'm pretty sure we don't have a plotter lol you mean the printing knd right? I have packaging boxes from my computer and printer at the farthest end of the pile... And a microwave lol
