Wheelbarrow storage

Anyone have a good idea how to store a wheelbarrow? I use it, but it takes up a lot of space when not in use.

I turn mine on the side to keep it from over flowing with rain. I give it a shot of paint once in awhile.

That's a tough one. Put it under your deck if you have a deck.

Thanks.

I was trying to figure out a hook system to get it up and out of the way. But that doesn't seem practical either.

There are some factory built hanging systems out there but I just lean mine against the wall of my mini barn and bungie in place.

One of mine sits on top of a generator upside down. Makes a nice cover for it.

The best thing is lend it to someone in the late Fall. Then call them in the spring and tell them you will be neediing it soon.

I just lean mine against the wall. Unfortunately the nose brace is loose from a little dry rot set up by leaves etc gathering around the wood. I just need to make a new brace to make up for that last inch of wood that has rotted on one side.

EASY!!!!
Do like I did and loan it to your neighbor. He'll surely forget to bring it back like mine did and he'll store it in his shed for the winter until next spring when I knock on his door to retrieve it!! No hooks, nails, etc on my walls and it's not laying around in the yard!!!
Ingenious if I do say so myself......
