If your shed is in need of organisation you may want to start with rack shelving. There are several different ways to organise your shed and it all depends on what you store in there. Do you use your shed for garden tools, toys, outdoor activity storage, or for your auto tools? Or do you use it for all of these? If you find a rake, shovel, hammers, screwdrivers, frisbees, bikes, and an old lawn mower engine in there you may need to take organisation seriously.

First of all you need to start with rack shelving. You can organise the entire shed by using the right shelving. Almost everything can hang from the walls or be stored on shelves. No matter what you have to tidy you need to take the proper steps to prepare.

You will need to take measurements first. Make sure that you measure all the places that you plan on placing a shelf. You may want to mark the wall with a pencil mark so you will know where to hang the shelves once you purchase them.

When you begin selecting your rack shelving you will find that there are so many choices out there. You will notice that there are different shapes, colours, sizes, ...
... and material to choose from. But once you narrow down your choices you can order what you need and have the shelves shipped right to your door.

When you shelves come in you will want to clean out the shed. You will want to get some boxes and label each one the way you want to place everything on the rack shelving. This will help you stay organised as soon as your shelves arrive.

Once you hang the shelves up you can begin placing everything exactly where you want them. You may need to reorganise the shelves a couple of times before you finally find the look you want.

Once the shelving is up you will have the perfect look for your shed. You will have created an organised way to find everything. Now comes the task of putting everything back in its place when you use it. If you have kids you may not get the satisfaction of knowing that they placed the tool back on the shelf when they are done. But when you do it you know it will be organised.

Once you see how well rack shelving works in your shed you may find a few places in your home that could use them as well. You can hang the shelves in a teens' room to help organise the room. You can also put shelving up in the sitting room to hold the surround sound speakers. You can place shelving in the kitchen to place your trinkets or spices that you use the most often. Place them in the bathroom to sit jars of cotton balls and swabs on.

There are so many ways to decorate your home or outdoor sheds with rack shelving. The possibilities are almost endless!
