3 Ways to Use a Carport

Generally speaking, carports are used to store various types of vehicles, from cars to trucks to boats to trailers to motorcycles. However, this isn’t the only thing you can use a carport for. Here are just a couple of unique ways to use carports that don’t require you to even own a vehicle.

1. Extra Storage

Do you have a garage that’s already full of stuff? Do you have more than two vehicles? A carport can provide you with the extra space you need for vehicle storage, cargo storage, or a place to keep motorcycles, bicycles, canoes, or any number of other items that just won’t fit in the indoor space you have.

2. Sheltered Patio Area

If you don’t have a sizable porch or an awning in your backyard, you may not want to do much entertaining outside when everyone has to sit in the hot Texas sun. But if you have a carport, you can set up tables and chairs beneath it to host a lunch, dinner, board game night, birthday party, or book club outdoors while keeping everyone and everything shielded from sun and rain.

3. External Workspace

If you don’t have the space you need in your house or garage to set up a workspace for woodworking and other DIY projects, then set up a workbench under your carport instead. You can also do car repair work, welding, or even your daily office job underneath the shade of your carport if you want.
