I couldn't really check anything in the poll. We have currently have 4 motorcycles in our garage, along with tool boxes and other motorcycle gear.

Right now it is still filled with boxes to be unpacked. I opened one last night that had 4 painting cups, the kind with the handle that you can have hold your brush in. Combined, they took up maybe 8 inches of space. I do use them, but that was all that was in that one big box, then crammed full of crumpled paper. The paint cups are plastic, not delicate glass. I am sick of finding boxes like that, or even boxes with actual trash in a trash can. The packers were horrible.
When I am fully unpacked, I will be parking my car in one bay and using the other two as a crafting workshop area. There is a little room built on behind the garage for yard tools, which helps to keep the yard mess out of the garage. I just need to paint the interior of it because it is raw wood right now. Then I will put my cabinets and yard tool holders into it to make a tidy setup.

Mostly storage, but when there’s hail in the forecast, my car is in the garage.

Our garage is used for tools, lawn implements and motorcycles. I wish my car could fit.

Where all my husbands stuff goes to die and never to be used again.
The garage is the one thing he and I argue about the most.

We have a 3-stall garage and currently have two cars and a utility trailer in there. When DS lived at home, he used the one stall, and we paid to keep the trailer at a storage lot a few miles away.
Love that we live in an area with basements for all of the miscellaneous storage.

We are lucky to have a triple garage, with walls separating them. It was one of the factors in deciding to buy this home and it's awesome! Biggest one is for DH's large vehicle and his work benches, etc. Middle one is for my car and storage along both sides, last smaller one is for the lawn tractor and snowblower + a storage bench and a small chest freezer.
We loved the fact that this home has so much storage, but have found that the more storage we have, the more stuff we seem to accumulate!

My garage isn't attached and used to be a body shop. Half of the roof in the back (where the office was) is collapsed after we had a huge snowfall a few years back. The 3 bays are used for storage. Place really needs torn down.

In a way, I am glad we don't have a basement or attic, and that I have a SO who insists on using the garage for the cars. It keeps us from accumulating too much stuff. Although he would like a fully decked out garage gym, but for now he has to make do with a moveable garage gym.
