If homes had landfills they would probably be in the garage. The attic is too difficult to get to, and the guest room might actually be in use, so the dumping ground for all the \u201cstuff\u201d seems to be the garage.<\/p>\n

But the garage is a valuable asset and is designed to provide protection and storage for some pretty high-ticket items, specifically your car. According to the American Housing Survey<\/a>, 66 percent of all occupied housing units in the U.S. have a garage or carport. Many homeowners use their garage to store junk because they have nowhere else to put it\u2026 leaving no room for their precious vehicles. We realize that your garage has some valuable square footage and we want to help you reclaim it!<\/p>\n

Reason #1 – Keeping Your Tools Handy<\/h2>\n

With Closets by Design, your garage<\/a> can be transformed into the ultimate workspace. Shelving keeps expensive power tools tucked away while our designwall feature allows you to keep your most commonly used tools within easy reach. An organized garage can help make tiresome chores easier.<\/p>\n

Reason #2 – No Surprises Under Your Stuff<\/h2>\n

Who knows what\u2019s lurking in the pile of mess in your garage? Is it that dining room table that\u2019s made two house moves but still hasn\u2019t seen a family meal? Maybe your great aunt\u2019s antique hutch that you\u2019re going to chalk paint \u201cone day soon.\u201d These are both examples of stuff that\u2019s taking up precious space. Use an app and sell them online for quick and easy cash! There could even be buried treasures in those stacks of boxes; maybe long-forgotten video games or sports cards.<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve gone through the de-cluttering process, let our organization experts help<\/a> you design spaces where you can stash all the stuff you just can\u2019t part with.<\/p>\n

Reason #3 – Creating Space for Your Car<\/h2>\n

You want to park your car in there! Keeping your car inside your garage protects it against break-ins and theft by hiding it in your garage.\u00a0 It also keeps your vehicle sheltered from the outdoor elements. Spend less time washing your car, and more time taking it for a spin!<\/p>\n

Reason #4 – Realize Your Garage’s Potential<\/h2>\n

Let us help you see the potential of your new, clutter-free garage. One section can be a workshop with tool storage and project counter-space. Another can be a garden center or a crafting area. And, yes, it will still be possible to fit your car in there.<\/p>\n

Reason #5 – More Room for More Stuff!<\/h2>\n

Now that you\u2019ve got a wonderful new space, you\u2019ll find that you have room for\u2026 more stuff! Maybe now you can buy that treadmill you\u2019ve been eyeing or even take up fly-fishing. But here\u2019s the difference: once you\u2019ve organized your garage into a working and useful space, you\u2019ll never be tempted to \u201cjunk\u201d it up again.<\/p>\n

Dare we say Closets by Design can even make your garage\u2026 beautiful? Our Silver II\u2122 Garage System<\/a> provides a high-end look and modern upgraded accents. We have a variety of color countertops to provide accents to your beautiful garage system.<\/p>\n
