Getting organized is a common New Year\u2019s Resolution, but, like many other resolutions, it\u2019s easier said than done. Thankfully, we\u2019ve put together 5 ways to take your home storage hacks to the next level this year:<\/p>\n
Store Linens in Pillowcases<\/p>\n
It\u2019s suggested that you should wash your bedding once every week, but polls have shown that most people go 10-14 days before washing all their linens. To keep clean linens easily accessible, we recommend storing corresponding sheets and pillowcases inside one of the matching pillowcases. That way, when your favorite sheets are in the wash, you can grab a clean, matching set without having to dig in your linen closet to put together a matching set.<\/p>\n
Cleaning the Clutter of Your Supplies<\/p>\n
Where do you go when you need a spray cleaner? We bet you\u2019re diving under your sink or in another obscure cabinet. But to maximize storage (and keep your cleaning supplies handy), try using a shoe rack on the inside of your pantry or laundry room door. Most cleaners will easily fit in the individual shoe pockets. It\u2019s also a good way to keep track of what you need to buy next since the clear shoe organizers let you easily see how much you have left.<\/p>\n
Remote Reorganization<\/p>\n
Are you constantly trying to hide your kids\u2019 Xbox controllers or find the many remotes that control your TV, Roku, or Firestick buried in your couch? We get it. Use adhesive velcro strips on the back of your remotes, placing the corresponding velcro pieces inside your entertainment console or coffee table. That way, they\u2019re easily accessible but out of the way.<\/p>\n
Clear Bins Everywhere<\/p>\n
Toys, pantry food items, medicines, toiletries. Clear plastic bins are perfect for keeping track of small items that tend to contribute to the most cluttered spaces. You can also purchase many DIY labels online that you can print on sticker paper to create an aesthetically pleasing organization system for even the most basic items.<\/p>\n Electric Cord Clutter<\/p>\n Everyone has a box of random old phone chargers, computer cords, printer cables, etc. You may not know exactly what they\u2019re for, but you know you might need them one day. A useful hack to keeping them together but untangled is to collect toilet paper and paper towel cardboard tubes. Place the tubes, standing up, in a plastic bin and put each cord inside their own cardboard tube. That way, all the cords are together, but they aren\u2019t using drawer space and creating unnecessary clutter.<\/p>\n For larger items that need storage, we suggest getting a quote on a UNITS for the ultimate storage solution.
