9. Add a Tool Tower Rack
A tool tower rack is a life-saving storage solution for long-handled cleaning objects like brushes, scrubbers, and brooms. You can also use it to store shovels, rakes, and other long gardening tools.
You can choose between stationary ones and those on wheels. While the former can be placed in a corner for permanent storage, the latter can easily be moved wherever you need them. Corner shelving is our favorite as it takes up very little space while providing ample storage.
There are also smaller versions for hammers, chisels, and screwdrivers to save you from digging into drawers of sharp tools.

Pictures are needed for each idea
I agree with Annie. Pictures will help us visualize what it will look like.
I would find out what can be taken to Goodwill or to the trash before finding new ways to store stuff.
GOOD POINT!
Don’t take it to Goodwill. Their executives make six figures. Kind of excessive amount for an organization that is supposed to help people and the six figures is not a low number.
Take it where it really helps. Like a woman shelter. Women in their children are kicked out or have to leave in the middle of the night. Many times with nothing. They can use everything to restart their life.
Yes, She is definitely correct there. Take it to those who depend upon volunteers for labor and who lift those who are in the depths of misery. Battered shelters, orphan thrift stores and those who work with and for Hospice.
Thats correct,
Pretty much all CEOs make six figures. Goodwill is a great organization that does help many people, including finding jobs for people with special needs and giving them vocational training. I promise that your items will be put to good use and the profits will be put to good use.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with donating to women’s shelters, either.
Good point
I agree with you don’t take it to goodwill they pretend like they are going to help people do this and that! The prices are ridiculous at the goodwill, there stuff is horrible high any more , you can buy new stuff compared to buying from the goodwill.
Very true!
That explains it well.
large capacity rolling tool chests are an absolute necessity for saving space and organizing tools.
I agree that a lot of this stored stuffed could be trashed! Perhaps the homeowner should look for a bigger home and storage space.
The first and last pics are congested messes. I already live like that and no matter how it’s stored……TOO MUCH JUNK!
I am so sorry to say that the Clutter x 1,000 would be impossible to remedy. It’s impossible to take one foot step in that full from walls to wall x four. I bug “HIM” and bug “HIM” to absolutely no avail….same with the living room I no longer have…..and it’s the largest room in this house due to an extension….it’s is the husband’s bed room by himself.
About the garage, I swear he is waiting to die, so I’ll be stuck with the impossible decluttering.
I have the same problem; hubby ignores me when I plead with him to help me clear the garage out! It’s not my terrain so I hesitate to try myself! It’s a major issue but my suggestions fall on deaf ears!!
I think this looks pretty good. I’ll guess the family members live an active lifestyle, maybe like to decorate for the holidays, and are clever enough to do some of their own repairs (tools). Perhaps the minimalists that are commenting should just scroll on by.
Shelving on the side walls would help alot. Tools can be stored on a pegboard and junk can be stored in the trash.
I was tired of plastic bins breaking with my jewelers stones and gems, so my wonderful husband bought me a steel mechanics’ tool cart. Wonderful!!
