Time To Get Your Wooden Shed Organized
The other day I went looking for a particular gardening tool. I knew where it was – sort of. It was out in my wooden shed somewhere. Over the past year or so I’ve been slowly stacking and storing way too much for my shed to hold. And then it dawned on me, its time to reorganize.
The first step in my endeavour was to make sure I gave myself plenty of time to take everything out, organize it and put it all back. I figured I could do it in one day as long as I wake up early enough. Be sure to allow yourself plenty of time if you are planning to do the same with your wooden shed.
Now the fun part, waking up at the crack of dawn, I started pulling everything out. And I mean everything. I even took out some of the old shelves. Since I’m taking the time to do this, I may as well do it right. The night before I went and purchase some pegboards and a couple of cabinets to hang up.
Once I had all the items taken out, I could easily sort through things I didn’t need anymore. It ended up being quite a bit. The rest I put into piles of like items, such as gardening tools in one, woodworking tools in another, and so on.
Take all of our small items and put them into containers and mark the outside (both top and one side) so you can find them easier when you are looking for them.
Before putting everything back in the wooden shed, I cleaned it up really thoroughly and hung the pegboard a couple more shelves and cabinets.
Now I’m ready to put what’s left back inside. Put items that you don’t use that much (such as seasonal items) up higher and more out of the way. You can even put them in the rafters if your shed has them.
Take your piles of like items and put them back that way. So all the gardening tools will be in the same area, for instance. Try to have as many items labeled as you can. Anything you can do to make it easier on yourself later is a good thing.
Before I knew it, not only is my wooden shed more organized, but it’s a lot cleaner and I have much more space than I anticipated. Now, if I can just keep it that way.
