Costco's TRINITY Shelves Are A Fan Favorite For Tackling Garage Clutter. Here's Why

When you're looking for ways to declutter and organize your garage tools and other gear, shelves are a popular choice. Whether you go with wall-mounted, freestanding, or adjustable shelves, you can remove clutter from the floor of the garage and take advantage of the vertical space that's available to store items of varying sizes.

If you're looking to buy a collection of shelves and save some money in the process, Costco is a good place to start, as it often has products at a significant discount to what's found at competitors' stores. Costco offers storage shelves that keep your garage organized in many different sizes. One of the brands of storage shelves found at Costco in large numbers is TRINITY.

The TRINITY garage shelves have excellent customer review ratings on Costco's website, making this brand a fan favorite. Many customer reviewers on the Costco website mentioned the inclusion of casters on the shelves as a significant benefit. "You have the ability to move them for cleaning [or] to rearrange them, all without having to unload them every time," one Costco reviewer said. After installing the shelves, the same reviewer was able to move items that were previously in a storage unit back to the garage because of how much functional space they provided. 

Costco carries several different sizes of TRINITY garage shelves, so customers can easily find the perfect size for their individual needs. One of the narrowest shelves Costco has is the TRINITY EcoStorage 5-Tier Rack for $100. It has an overall height (with the wheels) of 56.5 inches. The width and depth measurements are both 18 inches. Two shelves include removable wire baskets that can support 25 pounds each, while the other three are fixed in place and can support 75 pounds each. Even though the unit is small, "the wheels are heavy duty, and the structure is solid," one Costco customer reviewer said. "That two of the shelves are drawer baskets is a bonus." Another customer  used the smaller unit to fit in between larger units already installed in the garage.

If you aren't interested in building heavy-duty DIY garage storage shelves, Costco offers the TRINITY 5-Tier Heavy-Duty Wire Shelving Rack to manage your bulky items. The unit costs $240. It measures 77 inches tall, wheels included, while the shelves are 24 inches deep and 60 inches long. The five wire shelves can support up to 800 pounds of weight. You can also adjust the height of the shelves in 1-inch increments to ensure they can accommodate the items you want to store. "Very happy with the unit and so is my messy garage, which is now as neat as a pin," one customer reviewer said on Costco's site.

All the TRINITY garage storage options are available as online-only products, which means you can't find them in-store. Costco does, however, offer free shipping with these products. You'll also get to enjoy Costco's 100% satisfaction guarantee when shopping online, so you can easily return products that you don't want. If you're not happy with your purchase, you can return the product to a local Costco warehouse or request a return shipping label through your online account.

One Costco customer reviewer said the delivery option made everything easy. "Great price [and] delivered to our door with free shipping; would buy again," the reviewer said. Considering some of the larger TRINITY shelving products weigh 97 pounds, having them delivered instead of picking them up at a Costco warehouse could simplify purchasing them, especially for some people who would be buying multiple shelving units and trying to transport them home in a personal vehicle.

One Costco customer reviewer appreciated receiving a few spare parts in the box to cover any lost items, and several mentioned that assembly was straightforward. With the added convenience of delivery straight to your home and the simple construction, it's clear that investing in these shelves is one of the more hassle-free ways to upgrade your garage's organization.
