How to Organize your Laundry Room

Organizing your laundry room largely depends on how much space you have and whether you have cupboards or shelving to work with.

1. LAUNDRY ROOM WITHOUT CUPBOARDS:
   • You may either want to buy a mobile station with baskets to store your products or you may want to place shelving on the wall.
   • Some people with very limited space, such as a cupboard laundry in an apartments, may decide to use an over the door shoe Organizer or rack.
   • Another functional idea would be to place your washing machine and dryer on top of a pedestal with drawer or shelving space. This lifts the appliances to eye level, while providing great storage for all of your laundry needs.
2. LAUNDRY ROOM WITH CUPBOARDS:
   • Sort your cleaning products into like items. Such as “Window Cleaners; Anti-bacterial Cleaners; Polishes; Oven Cleaners etc.
   • Once you have sorted them into their categories, you may want to place them in containers and label these containers.
   • The benefits to doing this is: –
   • It allows one to immediately see if you are running out of a product;
   • it keeps like items together;
   • it allows you to bring down a container from a high shelf and search, and not stretch for an extended period searching for the right product.
3. LAUNDRY SORTING BASKETS:
   • Issue each bedroom with their own laundry basket, so that each responsible family member is responsible for their own laundry.
   • Some people may however, prefer a laundry sorting station. With  baskets for the different washing item needs.
   • Laundry baskets such as: Whites; Colors; Dedicates; Towels; etc. These baskets can also be hung on shelving along the walls with labels or placed in a mobile station.
