Do you have a garage, basement, or kitchen with brooms, mops, shovels, and other long-handled equipment all tangled together?  Perhaps you have been considering looking for a wall mount organizer to aid you with those disorganization issues.  This video shows a review of one wall mount organizer that is available on Amazon. 

The wall mount organizer has 5 slots for holding mops or brooms in the kitchen, shovels, trowels, rakes, etc in the garage, or baseball bats, tennis rackets, golf clubs, or pool sticks in the game room.  The box comes with three wall anchors and three screws for mounting on the wall, door, the side of a shed, or where ever you need it to go. There are 3 holes in the organizer so it can be mounted.  The holes are less than 16 inches apart, so each screw won’t be able to go into a stud.  There are also two thicker black rubber squares to replace the thinner ones in case there is a small diameter handle that you need to put in the mop and broom holder.  There is plenty of friction to the black rubber square and the rubber pad, and enough tension to the spring mechanism that holds the handle so tools won’t slip out. 

At the time the video was made the product titled “Wall Organizer-Plastic Mop, Broom, and Long-Handled Tool or Sports Equipment Holder System – Mount on the Wall in Your Home’s Kitchen or Garage – Hang Items Securely – Great Storage Idea for Staying Organized – Best Lifetime Guarantee” had 5 stars and 5 reviews.  Now it has over 20 reviews and 4.7 stars.  There is a review from Janice who says “I chose them to hang things instead of sitting on the floor of my garage.  They are perfect and look great.”  Another review from Mangum that says “Good well built plastic tool organizer…they work a lot better than the metal clips I had holding my different garden tools before.”    And also Donna writes “A much needed item to help with organizing my utility closet.  I will probably order a second one.”

So this looks like a really good product that many have positive reviews about.  It has helped them declutter and straighten up their storage spaces and it is a great storage idea.

Ways to Organize the Garage

Trying to declutter your garage this fall? In this blog post I will share several tips on garage cleaning.

Initially you will have to choose a weekend to set aside for the tidy up task. Look at the weather report so you may try for a day that possesses a lower possibility for precipitation, due to the fact that it is likely that driveway as well as walkway space will be required to categorize the garage items. In addition, start enlisting a helping hand from friends and/or relatives in order to help the decluttering get finished more rapidly. You do not want to do this all by yourself or maybe stress could possibly set in and perhaps it could get overwhelming.

For the next step, come up with a strategy concerning what there is to accomplish, what you have, and what you may need. Try to come up with each thing you and your crew will have to carry out and delegate projects to each person. For example, initially everything needs to be removed out of the garage, then some individuals could commence sorting everything as others put a fresh layer of paint on the walls. Look over what boxes and plastic totes you possess for storage, and what needs to be purchased for example, shelving, paint, extra bins and jars. That being said, don't get the containers until there is an inventory of everything that will be kept.

When it is time to start the decluttering, begin with getting all items outside of the garage and arranged by category. Set all the gardening, recreational equipment, car materials, tools, holiday ornaments, etc. each in their particular set of containers. It will be a lot easier to look for belongings if everything is put with each other. In the event that something can not fit into a bigger group, put it in the nearest similar group, somewhere else in the house, or perhaps make a group of miscellaneous things and later on box them up and make a list of the contents to label the container with. Sort out what can be donated and what is junk as you go. Then paint if desired.

When everything is pared down, figure out what size boxes will need to be purchased. If it is an unfinished garage area, consider using wire shelves fastened to the ceiling joists to keep things in-between them. Additionally, consider getting a wall mount organizer, to hang any long handled yard and hand tools.

After purchasing the required materials, decide what region of the garage will be utilized for what function and set up shelving or stack bins to fill each zone. Then label every container, drawer, rack, and so on so that all items are kept arranged.

Here’s a youtube video that shows how to install a mop and broom holder in order to easily organize mops, brooms, and long handled lawn tools. Hardware you will need are anchors and screws in order to mount the mop and broom wall organizer to a wall (or door). Tools needed are a level, 1/4" twist drill bit, Philips screwdriver, pencil, hammer (or rubber mallet), and a drill. A stud finder could likewise be necessary to prevent inserting anchors into studs.  First, utilize the stud finder to check stud positions. Then hold the wall organizer up against the wall or door where you wish to mount it and level it with a level. Mark the hole positions with a pencil and drill the holes with a 1/4" twist drill bit. Last, but not least, tap in the anchors with a hammer and attach the wall organizer with screws and a screwdriver. Now the mop and broom wall organizer installation is complete!  This storage solution has 5 slots that can hold long-handled lawn and hand tools found in the garage such as rakes, shovels, and hammers. In the kitchen, it can be used to hold brooms, dust mops, mops, and Swiffer Sweepers. It likewise has pull out hooks that a dust pan can hang off of. It can also be used to straighten up sports and hobby equipment such as golf clubs, tennis rackets, baseball bats, and pool sticks.  The wall mount organizer is made up of an easy mechanism that uses springs and friction to clamp onto the handles of the tools. Just place the handle of a tool into one of the wall organizer's slots, release, and the tool will be kept in position.  Another advantage of this item is it is compact enough to fit in virtually all storage spaces and therefore is perfect where room is restricted.
