I'm impressed at how you shoehorned the trailer into that corner.

What do you have holding the QuickJack to the wall? Did you get their wall hangers or something else?

This also makes me want to get some of the ceiling hung shelving and ditch the floor shelves that I have. It would open things up nicely.

:notwrong:

Depending on my Tetris game, I might be able to fit both cars.

But otherwise yes, one always needs more garage.

They’re just leaning against the wall on their own, however, I might buy the hangers or I’ll “store” them on the floor and park the car over top of them as I did in the old garage.

Seriously though - ceiling storage is a game changer. I still have 1 floor shelf that’s mostly for tire storage.

:word:

The bottom shelf is full of tires, otherwise I could get rid of it, also, a 2’ deeps shelf is too wide for that area of the garage for cars coming in and out. I need to research some hanging options that are about 18” wide, or install a purpose built tire rack and find new homes for everything else. (The latter is very doable). The only other option is to move everything to the hanging shelves (I have the room), but storing tires that high up is a pain in the ass (I tried) Otherwise, I’m fine with the black shelf as is, but yeah, they aren’t the easiest to :dill: with when they’re you’re only form of storage.

They’re still in the garage, and empty. I haven’t completely decided what to do with them, but will probably get rid. Will probably let them go for cheap if you’re interested.

Would need to check on what the sizing and stuff it, but possibly. Let me know if you decide to sell. I don't know how much you had, I have limited room/tools but could use a couple of boxes/cabinets.

That definitely makes things easier. :pouroneout:

No housing stock really has that around here unless you looking at $500k houses.
