How organized is your garage?

[HROT]

I wish I didn’t have a workbench. Instant catch-all.

I think next home will have the separate work bench area behind the parking area so I don’t see it every time I park.

 

[millah_22]

On a scale from 1 - 10. 1 being cluttered ceiling to toe in boxes I'll never understand, to 10 a spic-and-span wiped down sparkling paradise.

I probably fall around a 6-7. Things are "in their place" not necessarily all put away, but I can park the cars in it and find what I'm looking for. Could use a sweep, though. My work bench is also my catch all, but it's not too bad. Mostly just garden pots and stuff laying out.

 

[Hawki97]

Very clean.

There's a place for everything, and everything in its place.

CSB, I watched part of this movie after the Olympics coverage ended last night. We could all learn a lot from Brad.

 

[THE_DEVIL]

Nothing falls out when I open the garage door.

 

[lucas80]

Mostly organized. I’d give it a 6, but there is too much s**t in it.

Totally! Lesson #1 - always lock the bathroom door.

 

[Flie]

Fairly organized . I have a Rubbermaid fast track system on the walls for hanging stuff and we do a pretty good job of keeping it clean. I want to install ceiling mounted storage and a few more wall tracks .

 

[binsfeldcyhawk2]

I know where everything is….and I can get one car in it (small 2 car garage).

I meet my exceptionally low garage standards.

Does not meet the Frau’s standards 😔

 

[General Tso]

About a 6.9

I swapped out my workbech on casters and have materials to build a retractable workbench

 

[St. Louis Hawk]

10/10 organization.

Since I live in a condo with just a couple underground parking spaces.

 

[stanzithemanzi12]

Mine needs some work.

Fuk Dennis, I’m not apologizing to that wimp

“F Dennis Taylor” is one of my favorite lines from FT. Mostly because Dennis Taylor is the name of my uncle who I dislike. He was also our town cop growing up. F Dennis Taylor. I’ve repeated this line hundreds if not thousands of times in my lifetime.

10/10 2 car garage. Last Memorial Day i rented a dumpster and have maintained a clean garage since. If it looks dirty it's usually just because it needs a good sweep.

 

[cjnoles9399]

Best idea my contractor had when demoing our kitchen years ago was to repurpose some of the old cabinets into the garage. Everything is out of sight except what’s hanging on hooks.

 

[fredjr82]

I got these a few months back. Made by Rubbermaid and easy to install Amazing way to get organized. Following @millah_22 judging scale above I'm about 7-8.

congrats...your garage looks like a bedroom ready for date night

 

[jasonrann]

What is this word "organized " OP speaks of?

 

[Kinnick.At.Night]

Spotless.

 

[Hendy hawk]

Both are very organized. Until my wife gets things and then brings them back. Nothing in its place till I go in and reorganize it.

 

[The Tradition]

LOL, our garage is so full of crap that needs to be thrown away it's scary.

 

[tarheelbybirth]

My no-pic wife retired. All the shit she wanted to "hang on to" went to the garage. Been sitting in there for two years and never touched. I retired in July and there's no f'n room for the really important items I want to "hang on to".

 

[artradley]

About a 6/7. I have a couple friend on the street that are solid 9’s (I gotta give one of them a 10) that make me feel guilty whenever I’m there. It helps that we all have workshops and storage in our basements, and the HOA does most of the lawn work, so we don’t need a whole lot in the garage.

Mine could be a solid 8 but Mrs Radley always buys shit she intends to use so she won’t let me put it away, so it just sits there for months. She had a small stack of drift wood that she intended to do crafts with, that was there for four years before I threw it out a few weeks ago.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

The purpose of a garage is to have someplace to put all your pieces of exercise equipment after they turn into places to drape clothes.

 

[BelemNole]

3-4. You can walk thru both sides, but sometimes it’s not easy.

Classy response: Build an addition (or 2) onto your house.

Less classy response: Rent a storage unit (or 2).

Ditto, I’d rate mine a 3-4 but I’m working on tossing crap that’s never used much or is just plain junk.

Not getting rid of shit I really don’t need has been problematic for me over the years 😂

Glad he gave you that idea but hoping on a full kitchen remodel that that was not his best idea

 

[ericram]

Considering we are in the process of moving the garage looks great.

 

[DFSNOLE]

One vehicle can fit in a two car garage. But, there's the beer fridge, full size upright freezer and the golf cart in there too.

 

[Bulldogs1974]

I’d say 9/10. I bought a stihl blower and a blower for my Milwaukee just to keep the dog hair out.

Ahhh…I just piled it on top. And in a couple of years it’ll all go to the curb for bulky item pick-up.

 

[OutbackBowl2017]

Sorry, neat freak. Eat off of my garage floor it’s that clean.

 

[goldmom]

I can get two cars in there so I think it’s a solid 7.5 because it’s actually pretty organized.
Lots of houses in Florida lack an inside laundry room and the W/D are in the garage. Like mine.
Also we don’t have basements so a lot of garages here are “Florida basements”.

 

[franklinman]

If you walked in my garage you would give it a 2-3 but to me its a working garage with a big air compressor, every tool, gauges to rebuild an engine, 2 toolboxes, one wall is pegboard with 50 hooks. i have a mig welder. I have a lg lathe, floor drill press. Its a place i can go to relax, sharpen tools, and keep oiled, if i don't have a project.
