Clear Out the Junk to Make Room for the Essentials

When it comes to storing your belongings, less is often more. If you clear out the junk from your home storage cabinets, you’ll make more room for the things that are really important — the essentials — and only own what you really love and need. Start by sorting through everything and getting rid of anything that’s not needed. This includes old clothes, broken toys, and expired medication — all of it. It’s important to have a clear and concise list of what you need and where to find it so you can get truly organized.

Organize Your Storage by Type

If you have a lot of different types of items that you need to store, one effective way to do it is to organize them by type. This will make it easier to find what you are looking for and it will also save space. Here are some tips for organizing your storage by type and maintaining your system efficiently:

  • Store essential items near the front of your storage area.
  • Put smaller items near the front and back of your storage area.
  • Store bulky items near the sides of your storage area.
  • Keep your storage area clean and free from clutter in the future by always putting everything back in the correct spot you’ve created for it.

Determine Where to Put Your Items

There is no one right answer when it comes to where to place your items. It depends on your lifestyle, storage needs, and the layout of your home. However, following a few tips can help you find the perfect place for everything.

When looking for storage solutions, it’s important to first assess your lifestyle. Do you have a lot of room but tend to fill every nook and cranny with unnecessary clutter? Or are you tight on space but have a lot of items that you use frequently? Based on your answers, you may want to focus on organizing by type (kitchen, living room, bedrooms) or by category (clothing, toys, books).

Once you know what type of storage solution modality work best for you, take into account your home’s layout. Is there a specific spot in your home where all your items tend to accumulate? Are there narrow spaces that don’t allow for shelves? If so, consider using The Container Store’s storage containers or racks instead.

And finally, don’t forget about design elements. A well-placed stack of boxes can look stylish and elegant. Just be sure not to fill up any empty spaces with clutter in order to achieve the look you’re going for. Too much stuff can take up more space and visual space than necessary.

Overall, following these tips will help you create efficient and organized storage solutions for your home.
