1. Paper goods like paper towels, napkins, tissues etc.
2. Cleaning goods (spic n span, liquid or dry detergents, fabric softeners, etc)
3. Dry grocery goods (pasta, rice, noodles)
4. Canned goods
5. Glass jar goods

Thanks!
1+2 are probably ok. The rest I would not. It gets truly hot out there. People keep rechargeable batteries in the garage. Includes tools, golf carts and cars. At high heat the standby losses, goes way up.

Solution, our solution was to get those plastic stackable shelves. They are typically five shelves. You can make sets of two or three shelves and use them in closets, laundry rooms etc
