Yes. HOMEDANT lists garages and laundry rooms among the indoor spaces its shelves are made for, and the HOMEDANT HOUSE 5-tier standing shelf works in either room. The real decision is size. The 24.4-inch unit fits a tight laundry nook, and the 36.2-inch unit gives a garage wall more room for bins.
Both sizes are rated to hold up to 264 lb per shelf and 1,320 lb total as standing units. Because strength is the same, choose by footprint, height and what you plan to store.
Which size fits a laundry room?
For most laundry rooms, the 24.4-inch HOMEDANT HOUSE standing shelf (HS604015-5B) is the easier fit. It measures 24.4 inches wide, 16.5 inches deep and 59.5 inches tall. It comes in black or white, and the specs are the same for both colors.
Height matters most here. At 59.5 inches, the top shelf stays within easy reach. The unit may also fit under a wall cabinet, but measure that clearance first.
Depth is the other check. Measure your largest detergent jug or hamper bin front to back. Anything longer than 16.5 inches will hang past the shelf edge, and in a narrow walkway that edge catches hips and laundry baskets.
Leave space around the dryer vent. Keep the shutoff valves behind the washer reachable, because you'll want them fast if a hose ever leaks.

Which size suits the garage?
The 36.2-inch HOMEDANT HOUSE standing shelf makes better use of a garage wall. It measures 36.2 inches wide, 16.5 inches deep and 71.3 inches tall, and it comes in black. The extra width lets you set storage bins side by side. The extra height adds usable space above the stuff you reach for every week.
It has the same 16.5-inch depth as the smaller unit, so measure your totes before you buy. Some large garage bins are deeper than that.
Placement matters as much as size. Choose a spot where car doors and bumpers can't hit the frame. If your floor slopes toward the garage door, check that the unit sits steady before you load it. Keep it off any area where water pools after rain or snow.
| Unit | W x D x H (inches) | Per shelf | Total | Colors |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24.4-inch standing shelf | 24.4 x 16.5 x 59.5 | 264 lb | 1,320 lb | Black, white |
| 36.2-inch standing shelf | 36.2 x 16.5 x 71.3 | 264 lb | 1,320 lb | Black |
Check your spot and your load before ordering
- Measure the wall space. Note the width, the clearance up to any cabinet, outlet or window, and how far a door or appliance swings into the area.
- Measure your biggest item. A jug, tote or box deeper than 16.5 inches won't sit flush on the shelf.
- Weigh what goes on each shelf. Stand on a bathroom scale with a loaded bin, then subtract your own weight. Add up everything planned for one shelf and keep the total within that shelf's rating.
- Put the heavy items low. Bulk detergent, bags of ice melt and full paint cans belong on the bottom tiers. Lighter items like rags and spare bulbs go up top.
Frequently asked questions
Do these standing shelves have wheels?
No. These are standing units without casters. HOMEDANT sells rolling shelves separately, and they carry their own ratings, so check that product page if you need to move the unit around.
Do I need bolts to put one together?
No. HOMEDANT shelves use a boltless assembly system, so there are no bolts or nuts to fasten.
