Don't Waste Prime Real Estate
When determining an area of the garage for storing holiday decor, "Don’t waste prime real estate," cautions Chris McKenry, owner of Get It Together LA and a member of the National Association of Professional Organizers. “Don’t put your holiday decorations up front when you only need them once a year. Store them up high or in the corner.” Two out-of-the-way options: ceiling racks and high shelving. Both are ideal for bulky, lightweight decorations and leave room below for more frequently used items.
