Garden Storage Tips – 2022

Garden Storage Tips – 2022

Owners of any size garden – from vast country gardens to city gardens and small gardens – will know that keeping things neat and tidy requires an army of garden tools. Seasoned gardeners will know, too, that these garden tools need homes or else non weather-resistant garden furniture, garden accessories, lawnmowers and scattered trowels are going to become an unfortunate distraction from your planting.

Luckily, there are now plenty of garden storage solutions that are stylish as well as functional. A garden storage box can double as a garden bench if you add a seating pad, garden sheds can parade as eighteenth-century style follies, and bins can be tucked away out of sight in purpose-built bin stores. A small plastic storage box can be easily stored or double as a deck box, while bike stores are great for avid cyclists.

How do I choose the best garden storage?
A good garden storage unit will have enough space to store all your garden tools, lawn mowers, BBQ, sun loungers, wellies, extra seating, hoses and garden accessories. Bigger gardens, which consequently require bigger garden furniture sets and heftier gardening equipment, will require more heavy duty storage solutions like a garden shed, storage unit or bin store. At the other extreme, a deck box, garden storage box or plastic garden box will suffice for small gardens and patios. There are specialist garden storage solutions, too. Bike stores, bin stores or log stores all serve a specific purpose.

The very best forms of garden storage, no matter their size, will be lockable, water-resistant or weatherproof, have easy access and enough storage space to suit your needs. So, whether you need to store garden parasols or children’s’ playthings, or smaller items such as pots and outdoor cushions, we’ve tracked down some of the best garden storage to invest in this year: from miniature garden sheds to lovely looking garden benches.
