Cleaning Supply Organization: Essential Storage
Searching for the right cleaning spray or a fresh sponge can be a frustrating start to any cleaning task. A disorganized collection of supplies wastes time and can even lead to buying duplicate products you didn't know you had. Creating a centralized, organized system for your cleaning supplies makes your routine faster and more efficient.
📍 Step 1: Consolidate and Purge
Before you can organize, you need to know what you have.
💡 Step 2: Create a Cleaning Caddy
A portable cleaning caddy is the single most effective organizational tool.
Keep your most-used, everyday cleaners (like all-purpose spray, glass cleaner, and disinfecting wipes), along with microfiber cloths and a scrub brush, in a portable caddy. This allows you to grab one item and carry everything you need to clean any room in the house.
🗂️ Step 3: Smart Storage Solutions
Designate a central spot for your main supply stash, and use organizers to keep it tidy.
Under the Sink
Use a tension rod to hang spray bottles by their triggers, freeing up the cabinet floor. Use stackable clear bins to corral sponges, brushes, and extra supplies.
Wall-Mounted Organizer
In a laundry room or closet, a wall-mounted rack with hooks and clamps is perfect for getting brooms, mops, and dustpans off the floor.
Over-the-Door Storage
An over-the-door shoe organizer is a fantastic, inexpensive way to store cleaning bottles and supplies, keeping them visible and easily accessible.
An organized supply system is the first step to an efficient cleaning routine. If you're looking to bring order to your entire home, The Box Advantage Group offers professional home organization services to create systems that work for you.
