If you’ve invested in a PureSolid Outdoor Storage Shed, you’ve already taken a big step toward a more organised and functional backyard. But a shed isn’t just for rusty tools and old paint cans — with clever storage ideas, your PureSolid shed becomes a useful extension of your home.
Made from UV-stabilised, all-weather resin reinforced with steel, the PureSolid shed keeps your belongings dry, secure and protected from the elements — whether it’s Adelaide’s hot summers or wet weather.
Here are 10 things you might not have thought to store in your garden shed:
1. Bikes and Outdoor Sports Gear
Your PureSolid shed’s wide double doors and heavy-duty floor make storing bikes, scooters and sporting gear a breeze. No more crowded hallways — everything stays clean and ready for your next adventure.
2. Seasonal Garden Furniture Covers
Instead of letting outdoor cushion covers, umbrellas and summer furniture covers clutter your garage, store them neatly inside your shed between seasons — protected from moisture and UV exposure.
3. Potting Supplies and Gardening Gear
Seed trays, bags of potting mix, fertiliser and plant stakes all have a home in your PureSolid shed. With proper shelves or bins, everything stays organised and easy to find.
4. DIY Project Materials
Got leftover timber offcuts, fasteners, paint trays or tools for ongoing DIY jobs? Keep them together in labelled containers so projects stay neat and accessible.
5. Outdoor Toys and Seasonal Items
Pool inflatables, sandpit toys and camping gear can take up valuable space — but in your PureSolid shed, they’re easy to store and retrieve when the season rolls around again.
6. Yard Maintenance Supplies
Garden hoses, leaf blowers, pressure washers and lawn care products are perfect fitments for a backyard shed. Not only does it keep your yard tools organised, but it also protects them from rust and weather damage.
7. BBQ and Outdoor Entertaining Equipment
Keep barbecue tools, spare propane cylinders (stored safely outside the shed), folding chairs and picnic gear organised in your shed — ready for spontaneous gatherings without cluttering your patio space.
8. Storage Bins for Seasonal Decor
Your shed can double as seasonal storage for decorations — from Christmas lights to garden lanterns — so they’re safe, dry and out of the way until next year.
9. Emergency Supplies & Bulk Household Items
Make your shed part of your family’s emergency plan. Store emergency kits, bottled water, torches, batteries, lanterns and other supplies on sturdy shelves for easy access when you need them.
10. Workshop Equipment or Potting Bench Area
With its spacious interior and natural ventilation, your PureSolid shed can double as a mini workshop or potting station — perfect for hobbyists and garden lovers alike. Add a bench and a pegboard to maximise usability.
Smart Shed Organisation Tips
To maximise space and keep everything accessible:
-
Install shelving units for small tools and containers.
-
Use wall hooks and racks to hang hoses, shovels and garden tools.
-
Clear, labelled bins help group seasonal items together.
-
Consider overhead racks or ceiling hooks for bikes and bulky gear. These organisation ideas help make even a smaller shed feel spacious and efficient.
Items You Should Avoid Storing in Your Shed
While your PureSolid shed is weather-resistant, it’s not climate-controlled. Therefore, avoid storing:
-
Paints and solvents — extreme temperatures can degrade them.
-
Electronics or batteries are prone to moisture damage.
-
Food or pet food that attracts pests.
-
Paper goods, photos or fabrics that could mould.
These items are better kept in temperature-stable indoor storage.
