There is nothing else less than productive than a sloppy, mucky, jam packed,
and disorganised storage shed or more particularly a garden shed. All sheds
should be thought of as a large closets. Closets are more functional and
efficient when organized and outbuildings are too. Even a bit of effort at de
cluttering and organizing your garden shed can go a good way.
A disorganized shed is a great obstacle to getting your outside gardening
chores done. We all are prone to time wasting. The thought of pulling diverse
items out of the shed to obtain access to the long handled clippers almost
makes you want to turn the TV on. If you have trouble getting to your outside
chores maybe your messy garden shed is playing a role.
the first step in organizing your shed is to pull everything out. And I mean
everything! Garden sheds can often act as depositories for old rusty broken
tools, bikes that have been out grown and old paint cans filled with rock hard
paint. Once all has been removed from the shed inspect the contents with a
skeptical eye. You may need to discard or give away everything that doesn't
have a specific use or everything that's not particularly used. If items have
not been utilized in a year be disciplined and dispose of them.
Once the shed is totally empty give it a good cleaning. This is also an
excellent chance to do some annual maintenance on some of the things you keep
stored in the shed. Sand off some rust spots on your garden tools and apply a
new coat of rust paint. Oil any parts that need oiling and generally give
everything a good scrub and wash. Do not return any item to the shed unless it
is cleaned and in correct working order.
Before putting items into your garden shed take the time to add shelves and or
hooks. Although a variety of -three inch nails hung your father's gardening
tools times have changed. Tin my opinion, those nails are an invitation for
spiders to make string art in your shed. Go to your local hardware store and
purchase some proper hooks. The hooks are inexpensive and robust and plastic
coated. Proper hooks and shelving are a worthwhile investment.
if you're like me a neat work space is more conducive to getting work done. The
same can be said about a clean garden shed and getting gardening chores done.
When you have a clean and clean garden shed that only holds useful gardening
items, you will find the garden chores to be more pleasurable. Although, it
would at first appear over whelming organizing garden sheds is a great summer project.
