For hobby gardeners and professional gardeners, there is nothing better than tending the garden in spring and summer. But what happens to all the garden tools, flower pots, furniture and decorations when the cold season sets in? Proper storage is crucial to keeping your equipment in top condition and freeing up space in your home, garden shed or business. This is where self-storage comes in! In this article, you’ll learn how to store your garden tools – efficiently, safely and well organized. Also find out why a storage unit from STORE ROOM is the ideal solution.
Storing garden tools: What should I look out for?
Many garden tools and garden furniture are sensitive to moisture, frost and dust. Improper storage can lead to rust, damage or wear.
A suitable storage solution is essential, especially for nurseries that work with high-quality equipment.
Space in the cellar, garage or garden shed is also often limited. Clean, safe and well-organized storage helps to protect your equipment and make it easier to start the next gardening season.
Which garden items can be stored?
You can store a variety of items securely, including:
Garden tools: lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, leaf blowers, spades and rakes
Planters: flower pots, tubs and planter boxes
Garden furniture: tables, chairs, parasols and cushions
Decoration: fairy lights, garden figures and other accessories
Garden accessories: garden hoses, nets and tarpaulins
Preparation: How to get your garden tools ready for storage
Before you can store your garden tools, you should prepare them carefully:
Cleaning
Remove dirt and soil from appliances and furniture to prevent damage from moisture or mold.
Care
Oil metal parts to prevent rust and protect sensitive materials such as wood or textiles with suitable care products.
Dismantling
Dismantle larger furniture or appliances to save space and make storage easier.
Protection
Use tarpaulins or breathable covers to protect your items from dust and scratches.
