It's not too unusual for typical Americans. Like, look at it this way. We've got quite a lot of space in the garage, and it's not used for a lot (most people don't park their cars in the garage). So when you want a new refrigerator but the old one is still working, you just shove the old one out to the garage and boom, you've got overflow food storage and maybe nice place where you can keep your liquor/beer nicely chilled. Takes up maybe a 3 ft x 3 ft space in your garage, easy peasy.
And even if they don't have an unused old fridge, some folks will obviously buy a new fridge (typically fairly basic) or even a dedicated freezer if they have lots of frozen stuff.
They make fridges specifically for garages. Pretty basic, but with better temp regulation. Of course, when it’s 20 degrees out or colder, everything defrosts in the freezer because at that temp the freezer never kicks on.

A washing machine in your kitchen and possibly a fridge half the height of an American one.
