The best material for outdoor storage depends on the type of storage you want to purchase. For car shelters and portable storage sheds, a popular construction includes a weatherproof metal frame and a layered or treated polyethylene cover. Deck boxes are made from a tough resin, suitable for keeping your items safe from the elements. When it comes to storing firewood, specialized firewood storage units are commonly made with a treated, high-grade metal frame that can be confidently left in place outdoors for long periods of time.
What can I store in outdoor storage?
When purchasing outdoor storage, choose something made specifically for the items you’re looking to store. Storage benches and deck boxes are great for both relaxing and storing small patio items like throw blankets and patio cushions. Options like firewood storage and garbage cans are only designated for specific items, whereas sheds come in a large variety of sizes and can store anything from patio furniture to lawn mowers.
