ByronBayChris Posted 28July, 2013 Report Share Posted 28July, 2013 We are moving to a house with a double garage........but it is currently used to store our belongings. Yes, I know, throw all our stuff out and park the car in that place, but SWMBO would probably dislike that thought. Can anyone recommend a semi-portable structure where I can place boxes on top, and 1 or 2 cars beneath ? I don't need a 4 post hoist, but something with a ladder to access the top shelf, and happily park car beneath. Also, since the p-car tends to have its own oil aroma, do you think that the boxes (and contents) would start to also smell the same ? I don't really want SWMBO clothes to start smelling like a 993 (but it might make her more attractive ) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matara Posted 28July, 2013 Report Share Posted 28July, 2013 Get some pallet racking and build a small mezz above the car parking spaces. I ran out of parking spaces in my unit and uses pallet racking along with my portable car hoist to park my 356 above another car.

Pauly Posted 28July, 2013 Report Share Posted 28July, 2013 I was also going to say pallet racking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coastr Posted 28July, 2013 Report Share Posted 28July, 2013 Bunnings periodically disposes of its racking in their stores. One of my neighbors scored a heap of it and now has some awesome heavy duty orange racking in his garage. I spent a day throwing stuff out. It's painful but liberating. Commit to a couple of big packing boxes and work from there. Seriously, if you are stashing it in the garage, chances are you don't use it much. I'm all about the throwing stuff away. Clear cupboards, clear mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, boxes of clothes in the garage? I think a box should disappear one by one and accidentally arrive at the Salvos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronBayChris Posted 1September, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 1September, 2013 Gee, I sound like I should be on Hoarders tv show. Actually we are temporarily living in a fully furnished house, so our stuff is in the garage. I have, however, made room..... Just glad I did not buy a widebody 911! Also glad for my yoga teaching, otherwise I would need to exit via the sunroof. Also glad to teach yoga, otherwisr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
