Garden storage ideas that go beyond the backyard shed

Garden storage ideas that go beyond the backyard shed

If you need garden storage ideas, thanks to having a small garden or perhaps no garden shed, other storage solutions are essential.

Take a look at our brilliant garden storage solutions so you can find a place for everything you need to keep in the garden. 

Storage Boxes

Whether you have a small balcony or an entire garden, a garden storage box or garden storage bench is perfect for keeping all your gardening tools handy. 

Stylish Garden Shelving

Not everything in your garden needs to be hidden away. Maybe the bulky lawnmower or the tangled hose is best stowed out of sight, but small items such as trowels, twine and watering cans can be used to create visual interest on a sheltered side return or ladder style shelving.

Garden Storage Bench

For gardens lacking in space, multifunctional items are the way forward. Invest in garden furniture that can also be used as storage for outdoor cushions, blankets, and BBQ accessories. 

Wall Mounted Garden Storage

Even the smallest wall area can be put to good use if you’re looking for garden storage ideas. Get a ready-made wall storage solution or add some hooks to a wooden trellis to create an improvised garden tool hanger. Wall hooks and shelves are ideal for neatly storing your tools and keeping them accessible. 

Up Cycle Old Furniture

You know that old piece of furniture you have been promising to take to the tip for months? Perhaps it could be put to use outdoors as garden storage instead. 

A chest of drawers or an old writing desk could be perfect for storing a whole host of items and provides an extra surface for growing a container garden. Just make sure you use solid wood furniture and protect it well with an appropriate exterior paint.

Outdoor Kitchen Workstation

Say goodbye to awkwardly trying to balance plates and glasses on the nearest wall, seat, or ceramic toadstool. BBQ workstations provide extra surface space for outdoor entertaining and usually come with plenty of storage for your barbecue accessories.

Plastic Storage Tubs

Flexible plastic tubs are ideal for both temporary and permanent garden storage. Use them for hand tools, decant compost into them, collect weeds or leaves inside. You get the picture. They’re lightweight, durable and have handles to make it easier to lug around your garden essentials.

Portable Garden Storage

Tired of dragging all your tools around with you as you work? Get yourself some portable garden storage. And no, we are not talking about a rusty old wheelbarrow. There are plenty of garden storage options that conveniently come on wheels. 

Go for a design big enough for larger tools plus space for stashing smaller implements. And when you are done gardening for the day you can just roll it away.
