One weekend, one corner at a time.

6 min read

Garages are big projects. Break them into zones and plan for hazardous items.

Steps

  1. Sort into zones: car, tools, garden, sports, storage
  2. Use wall space for tools and bikes
  3. Keep heavy items low
  4. Set aside paint, chemicals and batteries for proper disposal

Hazardous items

Check your city or county for household hazardous waste drop-off days. Never put paint or chemicals in the trash or down a drain.
