Storage, or the lack of it, can be the biggest headache for any gardener. From weatherproof seating to your man-sized barbecue, your outdoor space is often the home to some of your most serious bits of kit. However, the question on most people’s lips is, ‘where to store it all?’. 

Well, if you’re lucky to have a a utility room handy, you can always throw it in there, but you’ll be soon tripping over it and cursing every bad word under the sun. So, think more practically and more inside the box as we reveal some of the best items out there that’ll help overcome your garden storage nightmares.

 

What about the garden shed?

Clearly, the popular garden shed is always the preferred choice when it comes to garden storage. However, they’ve become a little outdated of late, especially with the notion that space is becoming more limited in our homes, and the fact that a shed is simply just a shed.

To combat this, think about dual purpose and versatility . . . what about a sideways shed that doubles up as a lovely little bench for your guests?
