Steve Shares his Ultimate Garage Organization Setup

Psychological peace can be found in many places; the side of a mountain, the bottom of the ocean, even in your own garage. So, how can a place that holds the most gear, tools, and stuff provide any sense of mental clarity? Thoughtful organization.
Steve likes to keep items handy that make it out on every trip and my workspace tidy. I intentionally build shelves to exactly fit the bins they’re holding, which are specifically selected to best suit their contents. For example, small, stackable, clear plastic containers are great for things like bolts or fishing lures, but larger Rubbermaid bins are more appropriate for waders and ice fishing gear.
Labels are useful to keep track of exactly what you have and know precisely where it’s at. Additionally, organizing your space by activity or season will also help you find what you need so you can spend more time outside and less time looking for that one missing sock.

Nice set up Steve! Even tired eyes could find pole beans in that garage!

[@karlmerhoff3858]

You missed the 3 most important steps. 1 buy you a storage shed for your wife's decorations. 2nd buy a 2nd shed with room for your wife's hobbies. 3rd put locks on the garage doors

[@kelbyperez3830]

If this isn't the gaht dayum truth.

[@UlfTorson]

100%

[@hamiltoncloud]

Perfectly said

[@jasonspencer5267]

Don’t forget a separate shed for the copious amounts of children’s outdoor toys and kids vehicles that take up every fucking inch of space in the garage.

[@LukeLikesSnow]

@@jasonspencer5267 I feel this is my soul

[@user-fb4hw6vi1u]

This is a hit! I think it would be cool to see each crew members garage set up.

[@bis5523]

I got the same garage wall organizer as a wedding gift and I really like it. I'm not into the bin storage as much but I do like to hang regular use tools on the wall for quick access

[@KDOGGER11]

The moment we've all been waiting for!

[@steveniida28]

I was scrolling through trying to find bits and pieces of videos that showed yalls garages this past weekend haha! This will come in handy!

[@brananddandi]

Nice Its sweet to see how "self explanatory" the whole system is....

[@RahimLadhajuma]

Love this

[@austinsuter1990]

I built something like this in my workshop but screwed up by building it for giant tubs that get crazy heavy when you load them up. Should have done like Steve with the milk crates.

[@streetpunk99]

He keeps the his garage so organized because there's 0% chance he's tearing his truck apart to rebuilt the trans Friday night so he has a vehicle to get to work Monday morning. 😅

[@mobil1race]

Nice tour! I have an old school pencil sharpener up in my garage too. Having a sharp pencil is important!

[@SDS515_]

Very underrated comment! Nothing worse than a dull pencil when working on a project.

[@jimhardee9834]

Clam guns for the win!

[@user-ih5im2dj3u]

I have similar organizational tubs and boxes, but I built sliding doors in the front to keep off the dust etc.

[@Gslice-ok4ck]

Going to be one hell of an estate sale some day

[@danc6402]

I have a very similar setup in my "office." The garage is more of a seasonal staging area.

[@dimensionsofearth]

I'm big on totes too and have shelves built to fit, its such a game changer especially when maximizing smaller spaces. Only one freezer for game meats though?!

[@HowManyLegsItHas]

For the Algo!

[@DaNtHeMaN919]

How do you manage moisture and keep the mold down Steve?

[@hulsey1667]

good point, I live in the tropics and even inside the house mold and moisture is a constant battle. The shed/garage? Nightmare. I find you 'use it or lose it', by that I mean things you use regularly are fine but store anything semi long term, you're gonna have some nasty surprises when you dig it out. Good quality shoes/boots that don't get worn often will perish and fall apart

[@DallasRSnider]

Are we getting another Rinella/Putelis campaign shirt??

[@bpdp379]

+1

[@danc6402]

Better hunting and fishing for America!!!

[@karlcofell6464]

Fav video yet? I think so

[@tjstevens6828]

Anyone know what brand the ceiling mounted storage racks are?

[@joshuamalwitz3730]

FlexiMounts

[@allforugod]

I would have never taken him for the organized sort.

[@dreaneau]

Steve what brand/item is that camping cup? I’m in the market.

[@jacobewilson878]

GSI is the brand.

[@leejohnson8800]

How do you dust it all?

[@wcb5890]

Probably gets little to zero dust like a normal garage. He basically has a climate controlled storage room. I would assume insulated sealed overhead door. You would dust it like any storage room in a basement then.

[@BeauCoppers]

Great vid, Steve! 💪 Question: can you tell which brand is the gun maintenance holder at 2:28 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJyniXepZtJ9hdE)? Thanks!!!

[@keithkempenich6401]

But... where are the saws, drill press, belt grinder, welder and anvil? What kind of garage is this, anyway?! I do get a hard on for that kind of organization, though.

[@CCeja]

When you your making big money, you have a contractor in your pocket for whenever

[@connormccoury9272]

did you see his dab rig?

[@foolishjonny]

Old clip? 2-3 year ago clip?

[@erintaylor3932]

Where are the man tools? I saw a wrench. Chop saw? Drill press? Table saw?

[@keckmatt8]

Where's the car go?

[@wet_spell]

in his second and third garages

[@ashtonmccants]

Anywhere on his property. I live rural as well. We dont use garages for cars lol.

[@bikeny]

Steve, nothing against all the organizing decisions, but please, pretty please with sugar on top, do not add any sort of music to your dialogue track. It is distracting to the task at hand: listening to what you are telling us. Thank you.

[@user-ih5im2dj3u]

That’s not a garage. That’s a shop. The garage is where you park your boat, motorcycle, and truck. Geez Man🥴

[@liamsstudio_44]

Not a single person I know keeps their boat inside of their garage. Also obviously he’s not going to have his car in the garage while he’s filming a video…

[@maxa.9631]

Background Music ist very annoying

[@borderland_upland]

No bow press, bow vise, reloading press? Slave to bow shops and factory ammo. Shame for an expert.

[@wcb5890]

Or it is called priorities and or he knows enough people/friends to have them do it for them. People have busy lives....I shoot thousands of rounds a year...I'm not spending my free time pulling handles....I'd rather go fishing, hunting, shooting etc.

[@borderland_upland]

@@wcb5890for a guy who’s forged a career on nuance and expertise this falls short of that. You’ll never know the system if you’re not intimate with the process and parts.
