1. Batteries

If you have many devices that function with batteries, you probably need a stash. However, you’d better keep them inside and not in your outdoor shed because heat exposure or severe temperature changes cause a chemical reaction that will shorten their lifespan. As a result, they’re ineffective.

In other situations, they might expand and even explore due to temperature and moisture fluctuations. Rather, try to keep batteries carefully stored inside your home, where the temperature is under control. You can keep your power tools and their charges and batteries in your basement, garage, or any other area where they will be stored at a lower temperature.

2. Furniture or upholstered items

You surely want to use your outdoor shed and make the most of it, but furniture or upholstered items in general shouldn’t be in there. Not only is fabric not recommended for outdoor use, but heat and humidity can also cause wood to bend and leather to crack. To avoid any potential problems, you should keep your furniture pieces indoors and leave the outdoor furnishing in the garden or your outdoor shed.
