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

Some tools have handles on the end. It is hard to hang on the wall because the head takes up too much space.

You 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.

How about a storage rack? Here's one from Home Depot: http://www.homedepot.com/buy/vertex-garage-tamer-storage-rack-gt150.html#.URi8cWf8t-g . Or you can make one!

That's basically what I was talking about. Only the one we had fit in a corner.

I'm not sure why it is difficult for you to get them all on the wall, but have you looked into these type of hooks?: http://www.toolclip.com/

I use an old file cabinet, drawers removed and turned on its side. Works for me.
