5 Hacks To Make Your Laundry Room Look Super Organized (2 of 3)

Organize vertically

When you’ve got a tiny space, you don’t want everything lined up on the floor. Instead, you should opt for shelves instead. If you’ve got the space, put one over the doorway. Next, it is time to install some cabinets above your washer and dryer units, or on the opposite wall depending on the configuration of your room. You will now have cupboards to store your detergent, fabric softener, and everything else that is laundry-related. However, if you don’t have the space for any of this, but want to keep things out of reach from your young children, simply get yourself a tension rod. You can also get the most out of the space by using S-hooks where supply baskets, brooms and other items that you’ve decided should not be banished from the laundry room.

Maximize the space

Got space between or next to your washer and dryer? That will soon be a distant memory. Invest in a shelf or narrow rolling rack to fit between them, and now you’ve got some extra space to use! If there simply isn’t much room left to right, it probably makes more sense to stack your dryer on top of the washer to give you more space. Those bulky laundry baskets used for transporting your sheets, shirts, socks and unmentionables are also a thing of the past. March on over to your local IKEA and purchase some large blue bags to use for the same purpose instead.
