Apparently, we are cardboard collectors and hobbyists. Good boxes, sure, we were packing; not-so-good, ok, we order and otherwise buy things, keeping the boxes just in case (in case of what, I'm not sure -- cardboard has little effect on zombies); other odds of cardboard... well, I am an Instructables reader who sometimes gets it in my head that I have plenty of time and space to try my hand at cardboard construction (among ten thousand other things). Time to let the cardboard go! ... as soon as it is time for heavy trash. ... or I could dole it out in small bundles over the next twenty recycling days.
Other than the paper hoard, we have a host of garage-y-ness: hand tools, lawn equipment, gas cans, lots of lumber and pvc pipe/fittings, a ridiculous twenty-four foot ladder, theeen all of the stuff to come from the living room. It looks like additional shelving will be our best option, as none of this stuff likes being stacked or gathered. To further prove the time is right, Lowe's has my favorite shelves on sale!
oh, yeaaah!
74" H x 48" W x 18" D, 350# per shelf of vertical, floor-making love
May need a couple of my very own for the living room. /grin I can't tell you how much satisfaction I garner from sorting stuff into storage totes and putting said totes on shelves. With the right configuration, it is possible to store twelve twelve-gallon storage totes in the footprint of only two totes using these shelves (assuming you have at least eight foot ceilings and have the lowest rack at a height which allows totes below).
Ok. Enough organizational verbosity. Time to measure, make a list, and get thee to the home improvement center.
