Hurricane season has definitely hit the Charleston, SC area. And this year we have already seen our fair share of storms and high winds. If you are having a hard time keeping things dry, why not add a little extra space for protection with a storage shed? Storage sheds are an excellent way to hide lawn equipment, protect your gardening tools from rust, and also to house your children’s bikes and other outdoor toys.
Lawn Equipment
Your lawn equipment is obviously made for the great outdoors, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they should be housed outside year-round. To extend the life of your lawnmower, blower, and edger, a storage shed will keep them rust and erosion-free for the long-term. Putting them in a shed will also mean that you will always know where to find them. And you will also have a place for the gas and oil tanks to fill before you hit the lawn for a day of cleaning up.
Gardening Tools
If you are like most homeowners, the beginning of every season means a trip to Lowes or Home Depot to purchase new gardening tools. When you don’t have one central place to house your tools, they can easily get lost or left out. And during the long winter months when you can finally take a break from most of the yard work, they can rust easily and be of no use for the next season. Building a storage shed is a great way to make sure you know where to find your tools. And a storage shed will also save you money from year-to-year not having to purchase new tools seasonally.
Kids Outdoor Toys
Kids toys are endless, and although you want them to be outdoors enjoying the fresh air, all of those things can become very cumbersome and unsightly. If you have one central location, a storage shed, then the toys won’t get rusty and dirty. You can also switch them out from time to time so that the kids won’t get bored. Every time you exchange one toy for another, it will be like new again. It will also mean that your backyard will no longer be an obstacle course of kid's toys when you are trying to mow the lawn!
Extra Room
Depending on the type of storage shed you build, you can store other things around the house so that they aren’t sitting taking up room in your garage or basement. A storage shed is an excellent way to gain a little extra storage space for very little investment. And they also look nice and removed from your house so things can be out of sight and out of mind.
Storage sheds are an excellent way to have a place for everything and a way to put everything in its place. Keep your lawn equipment, garden tools, and kid's toys centrally located and protected from rain, the heat, and all the other outdoor perils of the Greater Charleston, SC area.
