The Exilot Drying Rack Courtesy Image Exilot Drying Rack The cardinal rule of stowing your gear? Make sure it’s clean and dry as a bone before you put it away. This sturdy steel rack is great for spreading out sleeping bags and tents to inspect them for caked mud and tears. It’s also ideal for drying them out before you pack them down. Once you’re done, the rack folds into a compact bundle with a footprint that’s less than four-by-five inches. [$38; amazon.com] Get it

The Grassracks Freestanding Indoor Board Storage Rack Courtesy Image Grassracks Freestanding Indoor Board Storage Rack Vertical storage is crucial, especially for small apartments. This handsome freestanding wooden rack holds just about anything that’s awkwardly long—skis and snowboards, hiking poles, surfboards, paddles—in an upright position to save space. It even has a padded, non-slip base to protect your edges. [$348; grassracks.com] Get it
The ClosetMaid Nickel Double Hang Closet Rod Courtesy Image ClosetMaid Nickel Double Hang Closet Rod A closet rod with a set of S-hooks is a great way to store frequently used but oddly shaped gear, such as helmets, backpacks, and water bladders, that you want to air out between excursions. It also works great for wrangling outerwear, of course. That said, these items rarely take up the full height of a standard closet. This expander doubles your usable hanging space, adjusting both vertically and laterally to maximize the area you’re working with. [$25; wayfair.com] Get it
The Feedback Sports Velo Column Bike Stand Courtesy Image Feedback Sports Velo Column Bike Stand In homes with more than one bike, a double-tiered rack not only frees up valuable square footage but also keeps your tires off the ground, reducing wear. This tensioned rod can slip into the slimmest bit of free space—even if it’s in the middle of a room or garage—and doesn’t require permanent installation. Bonus: The height of each cradle is independently adjustable for complete customization. [$170; rei.com] Get it
