Organizing Your Cleaners Under the Sink

Flag

I was sorting out my cupboard under the sink, which is full of assorted cleaning stuff, aerosols etc. and general clutter. I wanted some plastic boxes to tidy things into before putting them back, but the ones with a handle, that are designed for this sort of purpose, are quite expensive, and I needed about five of them.

Instead, I bought some rigid plastic seed trays at the local garden centre, for 99p each (GBP), which do the job fine.

Now that everything is tidied into its own tray (separated into cleaning stuff, laundry items, cloths/dusters etc.) I can easily take the lot out for a quick wipe around the shelves, rather than having to remove and replace each item separately.

This tip saves time as well as money!

This is a GREAT idea for someone without kids - but kids being who they are, loveable little people, the cleaners need to be up where the children can't reach them. Still, I will take your idea and put it to use where I keep my cleaners - in a cabinet above the washer! Thanks for the idea.
