Can I leave my garden hoses outside in the winter?

For winter months, you’ll want to properly store hoses so that they can last longer over the seasons. If you want to store them outside, you’ll want to drain the water out. You can do so by running them over a tall place. This helps prevent the hose from splitting when any water left inside the hose freezes. Note that fluctuations in temperature outside can still affect the material of the hose so storing them indoors is a good choice.
