Do you want a cheap solution to hang either your Lowes, Home Depot or other big box store bins? We have the fastest, cheapest method of hanging these bins to save space, organize, and make used of wasted garage ceiling space. These yellow and black storage tubs are affordable and everywhere. The problem is that they take up space in the garage or shed. In this video, we show you what materials to buy and with minimal hand tools hang these bins sky high and out of the way, thus alleviating clutter. If you came here for a storage solution hack, you found it. You can hang 6, 27 gallon bins for $40 or 12 for $80. Make sure you know that the Lowes bins and HDX Home Depot bins are different widths, so that needs to be considered when building this. You can use both, just space the I beam rails accordingly.

A couple of ideas: 1) label the undersides so you know what bins you need before you are on a ladder. 2) if you have kids you can stash birthday/Christmas gifts up there so they aren’t found 3) stud mounted eyelets and ratchet straps are a worthwhile effort to keep the bins from warping/sagging/falling. 4) leave one empty space so you can shuffle a front tote to another row to access one behind it. It saves a loaded trip up and down the ladder. 5) Really paranoid of falling totes? A very basic U-shaped frame around the totes would provide a “safety net” for falling totes and give you a place to put long, slender items (rakes, ladders, pvc, etc). 6) this is 100% a time to use wood glue or construction adhesive on all joining surfaces.

Installed this today. I did 2 racks for 6 bins and plan to add another layer for 12 bins. Cool hack i found while doing this alone: once you build the ibeams, you can measure the studs on the ceiling and match the screws to those spots and pre-drill them into the ibeams. That way, you dont need to deal with any loose screws while youre up on the stepladder and holding a big piece of wood.

Very nice. I did mine a couple years ago with 8-footers using all 2x4s. Ahh, the good ole days when it was under 30 bucks for deck screws, a dozen 2x4s. I spaced mine where the totes go in with the wider side facing the opening. 8 foot I-beams allowed for 5 totes. So 15 totes total. I was able to do this above where my garage door is when in the up position. And the I beams butt up against the side wall. I put my heaviest totes at the end nearest the wall. And the commonly used and/or light ones like holiday decor nearest the open end. I was cruising KZfaq because I want to do another set and was looking for improvements. Yours look great so I’m going to steal a few tips from you. Especially since lumber is much higher now lol. Take care!

@@srooster4410 so far so good. I have a couple that were on the heavy end of the spectrum. Old DVDs, CDs, printer cables,etc. It was a bear to get up there with my 10’ ceiling. The bottom bows a little bit no cracking or anything. I put those farthest back in the rows, and they sit closest to the outside wall. I was thinking that the rafters were probably strongest nearest the walls. And also because this isn’t stuff I’ll get into often and I don’t want to have to move it to access lighter and more frequented totes. But yeah, couple years on a couple heavy dudes and they’re good. These were the Home Depot HDX brand 27-gal totes, black with yellow or red lids. They typically go on sale a couple times a year. And they’ll have a ton of them stacked all over the store. They get down to about 8 or 9 bucks apiece sometimes. Good Luck in your endeavor 👍🏼

I would not do this out here... Or anywhere, to be honest. You could damage your ceiling (rafters, joists, etc.) because they are not designed to hold up anything other than your ceiling. If the joists fail, or the plastic fails you can not only damage you car, but also damage your kids or pets. Those things are designed to be stacked, so stack them high. Put a bungee cord around the top of the stack to keep them from falling over and you are done.

With the weight in many on my bins I would in no way trust holding it by two edges. Not to mention having to remove all the ones in the front just to get to the last one. The wire racks that attach to the wall are just as cheap and far easier to put together and install. Mot to mention you can use any bin or box size. I have them on both sides of my garage high enough you can walk right under them and also also have several of the ceiling ones at the garage end that you can still walk under but hang low enough and support enough weight you can stack 2-3 bins high along the whole back wall. I could have installed more but none of them are over the cars so (mostly) safe from drops if it ever happened.

I have a sinking feeling the bins, being made of plastic, which are not designed to be held in this fashion will give way first, especially if overloaded. It would be better to use plywood instead of furring strips, but since you can’t load too much weight into the bins, I’m confident the wood will hold up. I teach carpentry at a tech college, so my opinion should be somewhat educated on the wood longevity. Good point though, as I thought the same thing. Guess we’ll see! If it breaks, I’ll post an update haha

That gap between the first "I" and the wall just have my fear of bugs and anxiety triggered. Great video though.

They hold about 50lbs. I’m a contractor and one bin is full of drywall tools and electrical parts. Works like a champ.

Can I ask a potentially stupid question… what if the spacing of the belong joists doesn’t match up with the width of the bins? Don’t the rails need to be screwed into the joists ?

Mine run opposite of the way I want the bins so I attached 1x4's and screwed them at each truss. Then run the bins I beams and attach them to the 1x4's

And if the ceiling jousts don't match the width of the tote...what do you do?

@undead890 Жыл бұрын
I think you install it perpendicular to the joists so they should work for any width

Rotate your I-beams 90 degrees and slide them in the other way.

Good point I should have addressed in the video. Maybe I’ll make a update for this video if you run into that issue. Instead of making an I beam, spin the top of the “I” 180 degrees. Screw your 2x3 directly into your 1x3 now running adjacent to the 2x3’s, not Parallel. Does that make sense? Run the adjacent 1x3’s for every ceiling joist you have. I’ll have to make another video for sure.

@@ModernGreaser Thank you! Makes sense, a follow up video would be helpful.

I believe that you could do it the same way. You just wouldn’t have the ability to use as many screws and your overall strength might be a little less

How low do they hang down from ceiling to bottom of non sagging tote? Hoping to fit above my garage door. My calculations say on an hdx the max it could be is 19”. Is that correct?

That sounds about right, but factor in the 1" of the wood itself attached to the ceiling.
