How to Store Bungee Cords

Bungee cords are strong and useful elastic cords with hooks on both ends. These cords have a variety of uses both in and outside the home, in the garage, in the yard, and with vehicles. Bungee cords also come in a variety of lengths for different uses. Store your bungee cords neatly by organizing them according to length for quick and easy access.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Hook wall rack (wood or metal) (mounting hardware included)
• Tools for mounting
• Permanent Marker
• Pencil
• Level

1. Determine the placement for the wall rack. There needs to be ample room below the wall rack for the longest bungee cords to hang down from the hooks.

2. Hold the wall rack against the wall in the desired place. Place a level on top of the wall rack to make sure it's level. Mark the placement of the rack on the wall with a pencil.

3. Drill the necessary holes to attach the wall rack to the wall. Mount the rack to the wall with the hardware included with the rack.

4. Assess your bungee cord inventory. Separate the bungee cords into groups according to their length.

5. Label the hooks either above or below the hooks with a permanent marker. Write the length of the bungee cords for each hook. If necessary, you can hang more than one length on a hook or you can install enough hooks so that you have one length of bungee cord per hook.

6. Hang the appropriate length bungee cords onto each hook according to the labeled lengths.
