Our team at Trojan Storage will show you how to organize your summer gear and maximize outdoor adventures!

Organization Tips for Summer Gear

Whether you plan your next summer getaway in the mountains or on the beach, nothing streamlines the packing process more than staying organized. Numerous mental health benefits come with staying organized, such as sharpened focus and an improved mood.

Not every kind of summer gear can be stored in the same way. Let’s dig a little deeper into how to store common types of summer items.

Camping Gear Storage

Are you an avid camper but struggling to find space for your tent and hiking gear? Practicing good outdoor gear storage methods can help save you trouble down the road. Use stackable, clear storage containers to keep your gear arranged and avoid opening numerous lids in search of your lucky pair of hiking pants.

Categorize your camping gear into groups and designate zones for each major group. Don’t forget to reserve space for your folding chairs and tent.

Beach Items Storage

Perhaps you’re coming back from a trip to the beach. One way to keep your beach items secure is with shelving or hooks. From surfboards to beach towels, the goal is to keep your beach accessories dry and out of direct sunlight, and indoor shelving can help you achieve just that. You can also use shelving inside a storage unit, provided it’s not nailed to a wall.

Sports Equipment Storage


After a great game or workout, you’ll need to keep your sports equipment secure. That’s where proper organization can be a great help.

Larger items, such as bikes and kayaks, should be hung and cleaned off to prevent rusting and mildew growth. Loose objects, like balls, bats, and hockey sticks, should be kept in sturdy containers. Don’t allow any equipment to come into contact with the ground. If you plan to store heat-sensitive items in self storage, we recommend climate-controlled storage for an added shield from the elements.

How To Declutter Your Space During the Summer

Even when you bring all your seasonal equipment out, you can stay organized with some storage tips. Utilize the following methods to maximize space indoors and accommodate all your summer gear.

  • Declutter regularly
  • Label everything
  • Give all item groups a spot
  • Take advantage of vertical space
  • Keep everything off the ground

If space is sparse at home, your best solution is to rent a storage unit. The best self storage can provide you with a space to store your seasonal belongings in a convenient and reliable location.
