What is a good way to store plywood in your garage?
We have a bunch of pieces of plywood that our for our windows in case of a hurricane that are taking up a TON of space leaning against the wall in our garage. I’m concerned about them warping for one thing but also that they could fall over very easily. Is there a good way to store these? They’re so big that I (unfortunately) don’t think one of those hang-from-the-ceiling storage things will work.

2 x 6’s BOLTED to the ceiling joists and then 2 x 6’s bolted to them for cross bars about three times will hold a lot of sheets of plywood. Several of these in your garage will take care of a large amount.
Lay a ot of 2×4s on ground lay flat on them plywood always take up lots of room
Make an elevated shelf against one wall or at the end of your garage. bBe sure to only make it wide enough to store all the plywood and box it, so the plywood won’t warp.
Or as already suggested, suspend it from your ceiling on a strong rack.
Make it easily accessible for removing sheets in an emergency.
you can try getting intouch with a company like storagedeluxe, they will give you space where you can store all your wood
