Wanted Garage storage/work bench
My garage needs some storage solutions and I would love to have a work bench.
If someone is planning to leave TV or might want a bigger work bench I would be interested to buy. Any advice about buying new would be welcome. I have noticed some very nice TV garages with beautiful white cabinets and everything in its proper place. My goal is to get with the program, Thank you |

I used a bunch of "wood like substance" (def never have a termite) cheap cabinets from Home Depot in different sizes. Not sure if they are just considered utility cabinets or just cheap kitchen cabinets. Seeing as we are in a 2/2 we needed storage space and these are holding up surprisingly well. I did "permanently" attach them to beams in the wall behind them as I didn't trust them that much! They weighed well over 100lbs each. At the time (3 years ago) they were from $80 to $150 depending on the size at Home Depot,. I know people who have used "pre-owned" kitchen cabinets that are available from various local sources. Depends on what your garage is worth to you. It gets hot in (most) garages so keep that in mind with what you put in them.

It often contains sand and is tough on tools. It is flat, it is stable it is not very strong. My opinion plastic is a better option. There are cheep and better quality plastic cabinets. |

I bought Husky brand steel cabinets from Home Depot over 8 years ago and they still look new. There are KITS so you have to assemble but well worth the time and effort. There were several options, work table on wheels, short wall units, and tall cabinets as I recall there may be some others. I highly recommend these. As for a workbench, I have Harbor freight unit, holding up well.

I have a couple of nice benches with rolling cabinets that nest below the bench that I will be selling reasonably. If your interested in looking please call 352 661 5616. Dennis |

They are ridiculously cheap when they go on sale... Also, check out Harbor Freight on 441, in Leesburg...

Look into Gorilla racks on wheels. You can move them anywhere you want for cleaning & more

Inspired Closets did a great job (not only on my closets but also) on the workbench and storage in my garage.

you can also get some nice stuff at "Habitat for Humanity". I have the workbench from Harbor Freight, and it has held up very well under a lot of abuse for 6 years. |
