How can I store shovels, rakes, pitchfork, and other long handle tools in the garage with out hanging on walls?

Z on Feb 10, 2013You can always get a rack that sits in a corner to drop them into Kathy, but it still takes up quite a bit of space. They are not always sturdy either. The only other thing I can think of is to use the large bike hooks to hang them horizontally from the ceiling. They wouldn't be to easy to get to or hang back up though.Helpful Reply
