Tidy Tips: Keeping Your Storage Space Clean & Organized

Do you have a room in your home that’s dedicated to extra storage space? Maybe it’s a spare bedroom or maybe even the garage. Keeping these areas tidy is crucial for keeping a well-organized home. Today on the blog we’re sharing some tips on how you can keep that space clean without having to think about it. 

Here are our top tips for keeping your storage space clean and organized:

Keep an open mind

When you begin to organize your storage space you want to keep in mind that it’s not like the rest of the house. This is an area of your home that’s rarely used and is not meant to look like every area of your home. 

You may or may not have a lot of things in your storage space. If you do just be cautious of how it may look when you’re finished. Not every organized space looks the way it does on Pinterest. Though it is a good place for inspiration your home is your home. So keep an open mind.

Utilize storage containers

One of the best ways to keep your storage space clean and organized is by utilizing every as much space as you can. One way to do this is by creating more space with storage containers. They come in various shapes and sizes and can be used for many different things.

Discard anything unused and unwanted

It doesn’t matter which area of your home you’re working to organize, getting rid of unwanted things will go a long way. A lot of the time, we tend to hold on to things we don’t use or maybe even things we don’t really want. These things just take up extra space in our home and collect dust. 

When taking on your storage space, go through each item before putting it away. Ask yourself if it’s still useful to you or not. If it is, give it a home. But if it’s not, put it in a box and donate it to your local Good Will.
