Garage size

[LittleRedGoat]

DW and I are considering purchasing a new or used toy hauler. With 10ft or 11 ft garage I am fairly sure I will be able to haul 3 or 4 bikes, toys and a golf cart, if needed would I be able to haul a second golf cart?

You won't get 2 golf carts in a 10' garage.

Why not if they are under 48" wide, should be able to get them side by side. The OP would need to measure the inside width of the toy hauler he's considering and then measure the width of both golf carts in use.

96" wide?
My door opening is only 96" wide and then it is only 2" to the wall.
Good luck on getting 2 of them up in there side by side.
I don't think they will fit.
Dimensions aren't always the only thing to consider.
Once you get 1 machine in there, can you maneuver the 2nd enough to get it in there?
Not like you can drive them both straight in and call it a day.

I understand what your saying and that's why I said he needed to measure both to make sure he had the room to get them in side by side...didn't say it wouldn't be tight.

If the carts are 48" wide, they will fit in the 8' wide garages, that is, if there are no obstructions on the side walls. Most TH's have HapiJack beds in the garage and the vertical channels sick out 1.5" from both side walls. That cuts your usable width down from 96" to somewhere closer to 93", leaving the need to have carts that are only 46" in width or less.

Hope you find what you need.

Linc is saying, when 1 cart is in all the way fwd. There might not be enough room to safely maneuver the 2nd one in. The ramp is not 102" wide neither is the door opening. You will almost have to drive straight in to get the 2nd one in without damaging the walls or the cart.

Exactly what I am saying.
Thank you much for clarifying.

width wise sure...but how long are golf carts? 8-10ft?

I gave that answer on Page 1.

I fit 2 full size atv's in my 12' garage beside each other, they just fit and are 45" wide.

He did say bikes and not quads.

Maybe you would like to read what the OP asked again, he has golf cart and would like to possibly carry a second one.

[lincster]

I full size golf cart is like 5'4" tip to tail.
I guess if you don't mind them rubbing on your ramp and garage wall, then 2 of them will fit in a 11' garage.

[Calkidd]

I have a 11' garage. I can haul 3 quads and 3 dirt bikes. The quads are up on the back wheels and the bikes are loaded sideways.

So i am thinking you can get two golf carts and a few bicycles inside.

Yeah, bikes on these forums, folks usually think of dirt bikes.

Makes a big difference in the conversation now. You'll be fine.
