It is around this time of the year that work in the garden is put on hold.
The weeds have been removed and any others have died away.
The grass is not growing any more, the lawn mower has been put to one side and the logs have been bought for the winter's fire.
The problem is that everything still looks a mess; the garage and shed are so full that you can't get inside and the logs are stacked in a corner.
With the poor weather usually occurring over the winter, rubbish and waste collections can sometimes be delayed, resulting in black waste bags left hanging around.
Thankfully there are some things that can be done to improve the untidiness, with a range of wooden garden tidies which are now quite large and very effective in tidying up a garden.
The black waste bag problem is easily solved for about £200 by installing a bin bag tidy.
This is a neat oblong wooden box made of log lap planks, with a hinged roof which is usually covered with mineral felt.
A hasp closure will ensure that foxes and other hungry animals can't get anywhere near the stored waste.
The box is easily accessible, making the waste easy to be put out for collection on the appropriate day.
Similarly, wooden logs can be quickly and very neatly put away in a wooden log store.
Again these cost about £200 for a 4 foot by 2 foot size log store, or a little more for a bigger version.
These come with a raised slatted floor and slatted sides to allow for good air flow through the logs to keep them dry.
A wooden felt covered roof stops water filtering through the roof.
The log store is designed specifically for easy stacking of logs and can be placed near to the back door for quick access on a cold winter's night.
Additionally for larger items, the 'Garden Tidy' is becoming one of the most useful garden structures available and does more to remove the garage and garden junk from sight than any other item.
They come in sizes of 4 foot by 3 foot as well as 6 foot by 4 foot, with a sloping roof covered in green mineral felt.
They are made in a lap jointed construction but can be found in tongued and grooved construction with an OSB floor.
They will store the mower, the bikes and the wheelbarrow in a safe and secure manner and quite tidily.
These three 'Garden Tidies' are great examples of how to keep your garden or garage tidy in seasons where outdoor items are rarely used.
Whether looking to store away small items such as bin bags or wooden logs, or much larger items like a lawnmower or bike, there's an option available to keep your items tidy, safe, and out of sight.
