While we don’t pretend to be professional house cleaners – we do know a thing or two about cleaning products! Well… we know about organizing them, anyway. Here are our top tips for keeping your cleaning products NEAT!
Our friends at Nellie’s supplied us product to organize with. We're big fans of their awesome eco-friendly cleaning products.
Find the Proper Place
First start with the obvious – laundry items in the laundry room, bathroom cleaners under the bathroom sink, dish soap in the kitchen. Then – dedicate some room in a linen closet or garage for any backstock (especially if you shop in bulk).
Choose the Right Containers
Cleaning products can get messy. To be ready for any spills, it’s important to choose a container that can be easily wiped down and washed if need be. We like to use plastic, acrylic or wire options for this reason.
Keep it Green
It can be tough to pick the right cleaning products for you and your family. There are so many, eco-friendly & green options out there like Nellie’s. Do your research, try a few and find your favorite! Many products even come in sustainable containers or offer refills that avoid packaging waste.
Opt for Multi-Purpose Over Single Use
Some cleaning products are specific to the surface – like stainless steel or wood. When possible utilizing multi-surface sprays or items that service multiple purposes saves money and space. You don’t have to buy a ton of products or find space for them all in your home. Win win!
Reduce & Reuse
Whenever possible we love choosing options that save the planet & save money – which is why we love reusing durable microfiber cloths instead of paper towels.
What’s your biggest struggle with storing cleaning products?
