3 Ways to Keep Your Laundry Room Organized

Your laundry room can be a source of pride. But if left unorganized, it can also be a source of major frustration. Clothes littered across the floor, cleaning product scattered from wall to wall, and random objects like pens, coins, and hair ties peppering the entire mess.

But you can have a clean, organized laundry room. There are many ways to achieve organizational harmony in your laundry area, but these simple, basic tips will help get you started.

Laundry rooms come in all shapes and sizes, so store-bought cabinetry won’t give you the perfect fit, and it won’t maximize your space for the most ideal storage. It’s a far better option to add custom cabinetry and shelving to your laundry room, which will ensure better use of your space.

When you work with an organization professional, you can enjoy fully-customized cabinets that not only fit your laundry space, but also have the style, color, and design you prefer. They can also be fitted to your family’s specific needs, allowing for more hangers, more drawers, or more shelving; whichever would be best for your household.

Of all the little tricks you can use to keep your laundry room organized, few are as simple and effective as baskets. Small, stylish baskets, usually about the size of a shoebox, can be used to organize a variety of items.

Every homeowner will have different needs, but as an example, you can have a basket that holds all of your stain-removal items, and another basket that holds all of your basic cleaning items. You could also have a basket for miscellaneous items, such as single sock and hair ties, and (while you’re at it) have a jar for coins.

Using vertical space is one of the main pillars of good organization. Whether it’s the kitchen, bathroom, or entryway, using walls and even doors is crucial to keeping a room uncluttered. The same goes for the laundry room.

Depending on the available space, hanging racks, rods, and hooks can all be used to make the area more organized. This is where working with a professional will help, as they can create a specific plan for your space, allowing for efficient, effective use of hooks and hangers.
