Local Resources in Long Beach
I’ve come up with a list of local resources for people in the Long Beach Area to use when working on organizing their garage. I’ve added many of the items on this list to my webpage: https://www.howtoorganizemygarage.com/longbeach
Please feel free to send me suggestions of what resources you’ve found to be helpful and I can add them to the list :)
