Summer’s over. The grill is cleaned, the last BBQ was a hit… but now the weather’s changing.
And your garden furniture? It’s still outside — soaking up moisture, catching frost, or fading in the autumn sun.
Let’s fix that.
Whether you’re dealing with stackable chairs, lounge sets, heavy flowerpots, or foldable tables — smart storage can protect your gear and make your spring setup way easier.
This guide shows you how to store your garden furniture properly — and when it makes sense to keep it offsite.
Why garden furniture needs extra care during the off-season
Ob Kunststoff, Holz, Metall oder Rattan – jede Oberfläche reagiert empfindlich auf WeNo matter if it’s plastic, wood, metal, or rattan — outdoor furniture materials react to the weather:
- Moisture causes wood to warp, metal to rust, and cushions to grow mould
- UV light fades surfaces — even in autumn and winter
- Frost cracks ceramic pots and damages glass tops
- Cushions stored in damp cellars? Instant mildew party 🎉
💡 A bit of smart storage now can save you a lot of money and effort come spring.
5 quick tips for storing garden furniture at home
- Clean thoroughly before storing
Dirt traps moisture — and moisture causes damage. - Store cushions separately
Use breathable storage bags or boxes in a dry, cool place. - Stack smart to save space
Nest chairs, fold tables, and dismantle when possible. - Protect planters from frost
Ceramic and clay pots should be kept in frost-free zones. - Covers are useful – but let air in
Never seal furniture completely; trapped moisture = mould.
No basement, no garage – no problem
If you live in an apartment or simply don’t have the space, it’s time to think bigger.
Dragging furniture into stairwells, squeezing it onto balconies, or shoving it into a dusty garage isn’t ideal.
And renting a classic self storage unit? That means keys, transport, contracts…
There’s a smarter way.
