Want to Park in Your Own Garage This Winter? Here's How to Make it Happen.

Tips to get your car out of the elements and into your garage this winter.

Ah, winter. The season of chilly mornings, snow-covered windshields, and let’s be honest, a bit of grumbling as we scrape ice off the car before work. But here’s a wild idea: what if this winter, instead of braving the elements every morning, you could actually park in your own garage?

Before you say, "But my garage is full of stuff," hear us out. With a little organization and the right storage solutions, you can make space for your car and hold onto those items you’re not quite ready to part with.

Now is the time to get your garage car ready. So, before the snow starts flying, we’ve got a few strategies to get you started:

Sort it Out:

Start by taking a Saturday to pull everything out and sort through what’s in there. You may find treasure, you may find junk—it’s all part of the adventure. Categorize items into "keep," "toss," "donate," and "storage."

Think Vertical:

Installing some shelving or overhead storage racks can make a big difference! Store items you rarely use, like seasonal decorations or camping gear, in spots that don’t crowd the floor.

Create ‘Zones’:

Designate specific spots for tools, sports equipment, and seasonal items. This way, you can easily find what you need without tripping over your garden gnome collection.

Embrace Storage Solutions:

For items you want to keep but don’t need daily, consider renting a storage unit. Hockley Valley Storage offers convenient, affordable storage options to free up your garage space without sacrificing your beloved (yet rarely used) items.

Why Park Indoors?

Aside from the simple joy of getting into a warm, snow-free car each morning, keeping your vehicle in the garage protects it from winter wear and tear. Plus, a decluttered space helps you start your day with a little less stress—and who doesn’t want that?

So, this winter, give yourself the gift of a clear, car-ready garage. Check out Hockley Valley Storage for flexible options that’ll keep your things safe and your garage snow-ready. With just a bit of effort, you’ll be parking indoors and wondering why you didn’t do this years ago!
