Get the most out of your garage
If you find your garage filled with clutter and items you’ve been saving for years, you’re not alone. The U.S. Department of Energy reports that 25 percent of people with two-car garages don’t have room to park any cars inside, and 32 percent only have room for one vehicle.
We asked Sabrina Soto, host of “Get It Sold” on HGTV, for her best garage organization tips.
“First, you have to figure out what you have,” Soto says. “Today people aren’t just using their garage for cars. It’s for seasonal storage and tools. Even stuff people don’t want in their house, they move it to their garage.
”Then, move everything out. Get rid of the things you haven’t touched in a year. If you haven’t used it in that time, or most likely won’t use it, donate it.“
Soto suggests figuring out what seasonal items there are. ”Put decorations together; workshop, tools and supplies together; and once you have everything in these piles on your garage floor, then you’ll see what size storage boxes you need,” she says.

Maximize storage areas by getting organized
This time of year, I get calls about getting organized around the home. A lot are prompted by people who just finished putting away all the holiday decorations and realize they need better storage systems to make it easier to find things.
But with all the “stuff” around the home, you may be wondering, “Where do I start?” Most of my callers seem to want to focus on three areas of the home: the garage, basement and closets.
Obviously, the first thing to do is to get rid of the things you don’t need or seldom use. Having a garage sale, donating usable items to a local charity, or even taking them to the city or township dump or recycling center is the first step, because the less stuff you have to store, the easier the organizing will be.
Garage organization seems to be one of the hot topics these days. There are companies that specialize in helping homeowners organize just their garage. But with a little planning and some elbow grease, you can get your garage in order yourself.
