 GARAGE DILEMMAS
|
- Can’t park cars worth thousands of dollars in the garage because the garage serves as a storage unit housing an accumulation of household items that could be given to charity or simply thrown away.
- Cannot park the car systematically in the same location in the garage making it difficult for the driver and passenger to exit the car without dinging the adjacent car or having to negotiate around a cluttered garage.
- Garages are typically greasy, grimy, and grungy, which is the reason dirt is tracked into the home.
- Rodents tend to invade garages especially cluttered garages. Even mice seem to feel safe knowing humans can’t find anything in their garage.
- Poor lighting from a couple of bare light bulbs creates an undesirable work environment.
- Homeowners leave inadvertently the garage door open making the garage and the home susceptible to intruders.
- There exists a landfill mentality toward the garage. When something needs to be stored, it is tossed routinely into the garage.
- No storage cabinets! Imagine how the kitchen would appear without cabinets to organize and categorize the many items that create an efficient and functioning kitchen. No garage should be without cabinets.
- We waste time looking for what we need in a jungle of junk.
- Many people are so overwhelmed with garage clutter, they simply do not know where to begin to organize their garage.
