Get Organised with smart Storage

All-day clean-a-thons are great, but sometimes there simply isn’t enough time. By only doing one room a week it helps balance your time. There is no reason to do everything at once, taking the time to organise things how you want them is important.

Being able to clean up is also about creating a storage system so it is easy to keep things organised in the future. Having a place to store all your things makes it much easier to keep them organised.

Before you start the task of cleaning, make sure you have all the tools and cleaning supplies, you may need ready. This will save time when you are working at cleaning up and saves time not running back and forth to get things. You can place your supplies in a caddy tray and use the handle to take the supplies around with you.

Habits are formed by doing, you just need to start.

Tip: Set 30 minutes on the clock, and after 30 minutes, if you still don’t want to do it, you can stop. – You will find that you are motivated to keep going because you can already see a difference.

Once you have storage solutions, it will be easier to put things away as you go. For example, using clear storage boxes is very handy as you can arrange smaller pieces in them, rather than leaving them around on desks or rolling around in big drawers.

So let’s get started! Here are the five focus areas for the challenge:

1. The kids room
2. The office
3. The bathroom
4. Craft room
5. The garage
   
   

A great all-rounder storage solution is the Fischer Stor-Tub, as you can nest them when not in use and are lightweight for moving around the home.

Take the challenge and week by week start to get your life and home more organised. We will be releasing a new focus area each week - so stay tuned! In the meantime, start to collect cleaning supplies and any new storage you might need.
