The most important aspect to remember is that you can tuck away your cushions, so they are out of sight and out of mind. Outdoor storage is not always a matter of yet another clunky plastic storage container, and nor should it have to be when you want a truly stylish outdoor space.

Some of the best ideas for storing garden cushions actually come from other areas of the garden, namely our aluminium greenhouses. These structures have been making the most of vertical storage for decades, and with good reason.

Using durable and practical wall-mounted racks or hooks to store cushions in your garage or shed is a great way to save space. All you have to do then is give the place a quick clean to make sure there is nothing loose that could stain your fabric.

We highly recommend the use of heavy-duty storage bags if you are looking for a more cost-effective garden storage option that will withstand the winter onslaught. You will want to have a loose yet secure fit so that the air can circulate and prevent condensation from forming. The bagged-up cushions could then be stored in the garage, shed or attic depending on which is the most convenient for you. All you have to do now is pick your outdoor storage location.

Choosing the best garden cushion storage ideas is simple when you come to the experts. We have put together the top three factors you need to consider so that you can take your pick at your leisure.

Using our ideas for storing garden cushions is a matter of choosing appropriate materials so that the fabric is protected from the elements. Plastic, resin and treated wood will offer a useful combination of UV shielding and water resistance. Which one you choose very much depends on the overall aesthetic you are trying to create in your garden.

Imagine sitting outside in comfort as your space is illuminated by solar lighting solutions like these LED solar lights and you will know that the work was worth it.

The best outdoor storage for cushions needs to be able to integrate effortlessly into the surrounding space. Much like this Norfolk Grills 400 does not dominate the space, your new garden storage needs to do the same.

Place your cushions on the ground and allow at least a 5-10 cm border around them, plus an extra third of the storage volume for future expansion. This will ensure the air can still circulate and that mould will not start to grow due to stagnant air.

You can think of our garden cushion storage ideas as natural extensions of your garden’s unique style. The key here is to make sure that finishes, textures and materials are aligned with the overall look and feel of the place. You can set the tone for a space you will never want to leave simply by pausing before you buy. Choose something that is the right size and that is easy on the eye, and you will be able to strike the perfect balance.
