Is the garage subject to freezing temperatures? If so it is not something you would want to do. All supply lines and drainlines would have to be plumbed to that location and drain lines would have to be properly vented. I would suggest a plumber for a job of this magnitude and to ensure that it is properly done. Todays washers require a minimum of 2" diameter piping for the drain capeable handling flows of about 17-18 GPM.

You have to overcome 4 problems. Number 1 is the electrical connection that has to be taken into account. So either plugging it into a new socket or extending the existing. The next is the Plumbing. Your outlet pipe that either connects to a nozzle on a trap or hangs down a standpipe under your sink has to be extended. To do this buy a new outlet pipe that is your required extension length and also buy a outlet union connector, which is essentially a double nozzle part that connects two outlet pipes together. Your next two problems are your inlet pipes. You will either have a hot and cold feed, but on most new washing machines they are cold fed only. If it has two inlet pipes then duplicate my next explanation for both pipes. You should have 15mm copper teeing off from your cold water mains supply leading upto a "15mm to 3/4 inch" washing machine adaptor (this should also have an isolator on it. Simply cut the pipe roughly 6 inches (15CM) before this adaptor and buy the desired length of pipe and a 15mm coupler. Another option for this is to extend your inlet pipe from the washing machine adaptor to the washing machine, using a 3/4 inch nipple connector between two inlet hoses. Don't forget to isolate the water supply. If you need any more help, feel free to ask.
