The Best Products At Walmart To Help You Organize Your Garage

For most families, the garage holds more than just their vehicles. The versatile nature of a garage makes it the ideal place to keep yard and hardware tools, gardening supplies, extra car parts, sports equipment, and things like seasonal decorations. However, because storage spaces can quickly look cluttered and untidy, it's important to invest in the correct organizational products that will keep everything in its place.

When searching for the right products, Walmart may be one of the best retailers to check out. According to Kiplinger, this big box retailer is worth shopping at for a few reasons — it usually has great prices, it sells just about anything you could ever need, and offers free curbside pickup or shipping on orders over $35. Further, their selection of garage storage products is quite extensive. To help you find the best pieces, we've listed some of their top-rated items (with at least a 4.2-star rating) below, arranged from the cheapest to the most expensive.

No matter what items you keep in your garage, you will most likely need some storage totes. According to Pods, the best containers are stackable and made out of lightweight plastic so they're easy to move around. Walmart sells some that check both these boxes — they're made by Sterilite and hold 66 quarts. They also have secure latches that will keep everything inside the totes protected from weather changes and pests. One of these bins retails for $9.28, while a set of six goes for $70.

With over 1,700 reviews, this product has 4.3 stars. Many praised these containers, saying that they were the ideal size for storing multiple items, held up great, and stacked perfectly. Further, they have a sturdy latch, so the lid won't come off unless you remove it. However, some complained that the plastic arrived damaged — to avoid this, try to purchase them in-store or choose curbside pickup instead of delivery.

Those who store lots of gardening or cleaning supplies in their garage will benefit from a wall-mounted organizer, which will keep everything in one place, save floor space, and protect your items from damage, per Aristocrat Homewares Blog. They're also very versatile, as they can hold many different types of tools, from large rakes to small brooms.

Walmart sells this one by Musment for $17.76, which can hold five items and also comes with six additional hooks for smaller pieces. This product also comes with a two year warranty, and with over 300 reviews, it gained 4.8 stars. Most reviewers agreed that this item works great, is easy to install, and is very sturdy. One person also commented that it can hold heavy yard tools easily. However, others thought it was poor quality, saying it couldn't hold certain items and that it was difficult to remove things from the slots.

Wire shelves can be used for any number of things in the garage — they could hold your storage bins or keep larger items like toolboxes or sports equipment off of the floor. Because they're meant to be placed up against the wall, they won't take up much floor space. Innovate Home Org says to consider these factors before purchasing shelving: the amount of space on each shelf, the height you need them to be, and the weight you require.

Walmart sells a short, three-tier wire shelving unit by Hyper Tough. It has almost 2 feet of depth that can hold up to 750 pounds. While the black and chrome colors cost $29.68, the white costs just a little bit less, at $24.98. With a five-year warranty, this product should be durable and easy to assemble. It received over 1,200 reviews and got a 4.7-star rating. While some said that it was durable, great for small spaces, and simple to put together, others said that it arrived damaged or didn't appear to be of great quality.

Workbenches can have a number of uses: they could hold tools or gardening equipment or be used for home improvement projects. Walmart's Seville workcenter has quite a few perks, as it comes with a drawer, pegboard, and a surface to work on. Further, it claims to be easy to set up, and it has a one-year limited warranty. It is available in three colors, each with a different price: the satin graphite is $209.99, the red is $239.99, the granite gray is $247.09, and the satin granite is $249.99. With 1,120 reviews, it's received 4.8 stars. Many said it was solid, easy to assemble, sturdy, and great for small spaces, while, one person said that it exceeded their expectations. However, others complained that it arrived bent and that the pieces were poorly made.

Pegboards are a great way to organize a whole range of different tools. According to World Axiom, begin by categorizing your products into piles. For instance, perhaps all your screwdrivers go in one place while your wrenches go in another. Then, make sure you keep your most frequently used items closest to you, so they're within reach. Finally, make sure everything is kept off of your workspace as much as possible.

The final item that will help you create the organized garage of your dreams is a lockable storage cabinet. As Making Manzanita points out, choosing a cabinet that can lock is especially important for those with young children who could be harmed by dangerous chemicals, cleaning supplies, or sharp tools. Keeping them stored inside a secure cabinet will give you peace of mind and protect your family.

Walmart sells one by Seville for $299.99 that comes in three colors: granite gray, satin graphite, and white (keep in mind that the doors always appear metal). With over 3,700 reviews, this product received 4.7 stars. Those who loved it said it was easy to put together, well-made, and sold for a great price. Further, because it comes with wheels, transporting this large piece is very simple. Those who gave it a negative review said that the assembly took quite a long time or that it arrived damaged.
