**** storage problems *****

[issibizzy]

i have recently just got my own horse i have taken him to the yard where i was before where i loaned a horse off the owner now that I'm a livary i now get a small rug/storage room (size of half sony stable) that i share with another girl she is very neat and all her stuff is in a wheelie bin the corner but my stuff is a different story i have a lot more stuff then her as she takes most home just rugs and grooming kit is left. My parents hate horses and won't let me bring anything home i have a cubord but is has no shelvs and i keep my rugs in it then have two storage boxes on top for things i don't use two often the a bucket with bathing stuff and ointment and general medical stuff and i have 1 small hook for y lunge stuff.
i don't have to worry about tack as this is locked away with all the other liveries
but is this all i can do i feel like there are other ways as there is no room what so ever.
all suggestions will help
thank you x

I find old broken chest freezers excellent mouse proof storage for rugs, numnahs, then a box in the top for medical stuff and one for grooming kit

i don't think it would fit through the door but thank you

Buy a storage box for the garden for your rugs. Lockable and stores loads. Ikea have big boxes as well for numnahs, boots etc

Fold rugs carefully when dry and store in the shopping bags you buy at the supermarket. They are just the right size. Then put up lots of coat hooks to hang them from.

I'm sure you'll be able to fit an old freezer through the door as most doors are wide enough.

Look on EBay for cupboards or a wardrobe. Hang damp rugs by the leg strap 'D's'.
