Fifth Annual National Clean Out Your Garage Day is September 7th Plus Giveaway

Is your garage a mess? I don't have a garage but there area in our basement that we have set up for garage materials is always in disarray.

Cleaning out the clutter doesn’t have to be overwhelming or expensive. To help make garages safer and more functional this fall, the safety experts at The Lehigh Group are offering up these organizational tips:

·         Sort the Mess – Separate your items into categories. Then pitch, donate or sell items you don’t use. After deciding what stays, separate the garage into zones for storing each category of items, and then choose the most appropriate storage method. 

·         Go Vertical – Garages provide ample wall and ceiling space to easily convert for storage through use of hanging shelves, pegboards, storing rails and overhead systems. For example, The Lehigh Group makes a variety of Crawford®-brand flexible mesh storage organizers that hang on the wall and can hold up to 25 lbs. They are particularly suited to accommodate awkward or bulky items, from pet toys to work gloves and camping equipment.

·         Securely Store Hazardous Items – Place toxic materials such as paint, paint thinner, weed and bug killers, fertilizer and gasoline in high cabinets or lockable tool chests out of children’s reach. Use well-supported shelves to store cleaning solutions and vehicle fluids. Tool hangers, like the Crawford®-brand smart system, work well to store tools and extension cords. The steel rail can be hung on any type of wall. Select models can hold up to 48 tools. 

Crawford Organization would like to offer one lucky reader a Garage Organizational Package.
