Organizing Your Cleaning Supplies

 

The closet where people keep cleaning supplies is often one of the most confusing and disorganized places in their homes. But it’s also a potential hazard because some cleaning products are made of dangerous chemicals and, when handled carelessly, can cause a real problem in your home.

 

Plus, when your cleaning products are disorganized, it’s difficult to know what you have and what you need. So it’s easy to end up buying products you already have on hand, or not having the cleaning products you need for house cleaning when you need them.

Tips for Organizing Your Cleaning Products

 

For your safety and peace of mind, it’s a good idea to organize your cleaning products. Here’s a few tips to help you get started:

Create an Inventory — The first step is knowing what you have on hand. Create a spreadsheet in a notebook or on your tablet or smartphone. Create a column for each type of cleaning products — such as house cleaning, laundry products, bathroom products, etc. — and list all the products you currently have on hand.

Divide and Conquer — Next, group each general category together. In other words, clear a shelf for all your kitchen cleaning products, another area for your bathroom products, a third for your laundry products, and so on. You might want to pick up some affordable shelving units that fit neatly into a closet or storage space to give you more room.

Create Labels — Use your computer or invest in an inexpensive label maker and print up a label for each general area. Adhere it to the shelf or area where you keep each type of cleaning products. It’s a good idea to laminate the labels so they will last longer.

Use Your Inventory List

You can use your inventory as a shopping list. Simply do a quick review of which products you have and which ones you need for house cleaning and you can replenish your supply so you never run out and also never have too much!
