Introducing the right type of storage to your garden can be hard, depending on the amount of space you have available to work with.

In order to keep your garden neat and tidy, with your tools and equipment kept in good condition, you may want to look at adding some of the following storage solutions to your outdoor space.

Knowing where to store your logs to keep them fresh and dry is hard, especially if you don’t have space in the house. One of the best inventions for log storage has got to be the logstore, a simple palette design with a roof and three sides, keeping your logs neat and tidy, as well as adding quite a nice personal touch to the garden. Logstore’s are perfect for neatly positioning in the corner of the garden, subtly tucked away but close enough to acces when needed. There are some lovely designs available too that come in different shapes and sizes to add more of an aesthetical appeal to the overall look.

Classic Storage Boxes

Many people avoid storage boxes due to them looking bulky and in your face, but after years of designing there are some great styles available that will add to the overall look of your garden. Storage boxes are perfect for hiding away outdoor furniture cushions, throws and even children’s toys, with easy access to get them back when needed. With a durable storage box like the Keter designs, you can guarantee that they’ll stand the test of time, lasting through bad weather conditions and years of constant use.

Unique Garden Shelving

It’s not often a storage solution that you see in many gardens, but outdoor shelving is becoming more and more popular. Not only does it bring a unique touch to your garden, but it offers a reliable storage solution with the ability to display certain items such as your prized herbs or favourite gnome, adding even more character to your garden. You’ll also find that garden shelves help to create a focal point within the garden, which you could enhance with some delicate fairy lights to really make the space stand out beautifully.

Traditional Garden Sheds
