Smart car tyre storage - more floor space in the garage

Car tyres often take up a lot of space and can make the garage messy. With a wall-mounted storage system, you can easily hang up your bulky tyres and free up valuable floor space. This is not only practical - it also gives you a more organised garage where every square metre is used efficiently.

Ready for the next challenge

Here are our top tips

1. Clear out and plan
Start by going through everything you have in the garage. Clear out what you don't need and think about what to store there. When you have a clear picture of what will fit, it’s easier to plan.

2. Maximise the walls
Make the most of your walls with smart storage solutions. Hang tools, bikes and other bulky items to free up floor space. Our hooks and rails are designed to keep everything in order, from tyres to garden tools.

3. Create zones
Divide the garage into zones based on areas of use. For example, a workspace for tinkering, one for bikes and sports equipment, and one for seasonal storage such as tyres or garden furniture.

4. Use flexible systems
Go for storage solutions that can be adapted to your needs. With Elfa’s flexible system, you can easily add or move shelves, hooks and storage boxes as your needs change.

5. Think about safety
Place heavy items on lower levels and use secure wall mounts for larger or bulky items. This makes the garage safe for the whole family.

6. Don't forget the details
Small details such as labelling drawers, tool holders and shelf inserts make it easier to keep things tidy in the long run.
