Pantry Organization Tips<\/h2>\n

Here are some helpful pantry organization tips to help you get started.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Take Inventory –<\/strong> Before organizing your pantry, take inventory of what <\/span>storage solutions you <\/span>already have<\/span> and if you need more<\/span>.<\/span> Then throw away any expired food and canned goods.<\/span> You can begin organizing now that you have disposed of old goods and taken inventory.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Sort Items by Category –<\/strong> Once <\/span>you\u2019ve<\/span> ta<\/span>ken inv<\/span>e<\/span>ntory <\/span>of all the items <\/span>in your pantry, start sorting them into categories such as canned goods, snacks, baking ingredients, etc. Doing this wi<\/span>ll make it easier for you to find things and keep them organized in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Designate an Area for Each Category –<\/strong> After <\/span>you\u2019ve<\/span> sorted your <\/span>pantry items into <\/span>categories<\/span>, decide which area of your pantry<\/span> will serve as a designated home for each category. For example, have one shelf dedicated to<\/span> canned goods and another shelf dedicated to snacks, etc.<\/span> Doing so will prevent <\/span>inorganization<\/span> in the future.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Utilize Containers –<\/strong> To take pantry organization up a level, consider investing in<\/span> additional<\/span> bins or containers that are the right size to fit into shelves<\/span>. <\/span>This will separate everything and allow you to use all your space.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Label Everything –<\/strong> Once you have found the perfect spots for all your pantry items, <\/span>we recommend using labels. Labeling<\/span> will allow you to easily find items when you need them<\/span> and help prevent putting goods where they do not belong.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Self Storage for Organization<\/h2>\n

    If you are still lacking that needed space, consider self storage. <\/span>It\u2019s<\/span> a perfect solution <\/span>for items that are not currently in use, and that are taking up space in your kitchen or pantry. <\/span>Don\u2019t<\/span> live with clutter or duplicate appliances taking up valuable space<\/span>.<\/span> StorageMart and Manhattan Mini Storage are perfect for the job, we offer affordable storage <\/span>with no long-term contracts. Use our <\/span><\/span>Self Storage Calculator<\/span><\/span><\/a> to find the right size unit for you and <\/span><\/span>rent online today<\/span><\/span><\/a>!<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
