Another handy outdoor storage shed is a deck and patio storage shed. These sheds are great for storing any item that you might need to use on your deck or patio like grilling tools, tools to clean a hot tub on the deck, or even to store extra chairs or even an umbrella for your patio table. There are so many items that you could store in a large storage unit for your deck but making sure it’s large enough is the key.

These greenhouses are often built with a snap connector system, making them relatively simple to build in your backyard or garden space. They house not only your plants, but all of your hoses and other gardening tools.
