But the reality is that it builds up slowly over time. We hold onto items because they hold meaning, we plan to use them someday, or we\u2019re unsure how to let them go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many rooms also lack clear storage. When items don\u2019t have a designated place, they tend to land wherever there\u2019s space. This is more common in small rooms, where storage options are especially limited. Seasonal items, such as winter clothing, sports gear, or holiday decor, can add to the clutter when there\u2019s no designated spot for them between uses. Over time, we end up with a pile of items that never quite find a home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizing clutter doesn\u2019t have to be complicated. The trick to keeping things organized isn\u2019t tossing out all your items or constantly tidying\u2014it\u2019s about creating systems that make your spaces work for you. That\u2019s what this guide is all about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-to-Organize-Your-Room:-Getting-Started\">How to Organize Your Room: Getting Started<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_your_room.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DTQiy7ukbtN\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">brightlyorganized<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you dive into decluttering and organizing, follow these steps to help you lay the groundwork for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Take an Inventory<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To get a clearer picture of what\u2019s really hiding in the clutter, walk through the room and take note of what\u2019s actually in the space. Laying things out on the floor or bed and grouping similar items together can make this easier and more effective.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This step may feel daunting at first, as it can make things look messier, but it\u2019s all part of the process. While you\u2019re taking an inventory, feel free to toss obvious trash or low-value items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Visualize \u201cPurpose Zones\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best ways to organize your room is to visualize the room\u2019s \u201cpurpose zones.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some examples of purpose zones are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Entryway drop zone for mail, bags, keys, shoes, and coats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hobby zone for creative projects<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kitchen zone with sub-zones for meal prep, food storage, and dish storage spots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relaxing zone for movie nights<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Identifying these zones will help you know how to organize your room in a way that flows with your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Prepare Boxes or Bags to Get Rid of Items<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Set up at least three boxes: one for donations, one for items you\u2019d like to discard, and one for items you want to keep but don\u2019t have a place for yet. These boxes will help you remove items from the inventory staging area and clear a path for more organizing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"What-Is-the-1-3-5-Decluttering-Rule?\">What Is the 1-3-5 Decluttering Rule?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28415\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_decluttering_rule.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DSKkb2CkZT7\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">brightlyorganized<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1-3-5 decluttering rule is a simple method for organizing clutter that breaks your work into manageable steps. In its most common form, it means getting rid of one large item, three medium-sized items, and five small items in a single session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another popular variation of the 1-3-5 rule focuses on projects instead of items. For example, the large task could be a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/organization\/here-comes-fall-closet-organization-tips\/\">closet clean out<\/a>, while the medium and small tasks might include setting up shelving, grouping clothes by type or season, tidying stored shoes, or vacuuming the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are no wrong answers when using this method. The key is breaking down the process into simple, achievable steps so you can maintain momentum without getting overwhelmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-to-Organize-a-Room-with-Too-Much-Stuff\">How to Organize a Room with Too Much Stuff<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how-to-organize-a-room-with-too-much-stuff.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DNZHHwFPFXq\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">kristenandcoorganizing<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Too much stuff, not enough space? It\u2019s no simple task trying to organize a room when it\u2019s overflowing with items. Follow these steps to simplify the process for organizing any room in your house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Sort Items Into Categories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our biggest tip for how to organize a cluttered room is to sort items into the following categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Highly used items (e.g., journals, books, favorite cookware, or everyday shoes)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Occasionally used items (e.g., crystal glassware or specialty appliances)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rarely used items (e.g., seasonal gear and decorations)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These categories can help you see what deserves space in your room and what should be relocated or donated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Get Rid of Duplicates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you own dozens of mugs but only gravitate to the same three every week? Or maybe you have several throw blankets but find yourself using only one. Don\u2019t be afraid to donate those duplicates. When evaluating a \u201cjust-in-case\u201d or rarely used item, ask yourself if you\u2019ve used it in the last year or if you have plans to use it in the next six months. If the answer is no, it may be time to donate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Move What You Can to Storage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you still have too much stuff and not enough space after getting rid of duplicates or other unwanted items, self-storage solutions could be a great option for things you still want to hold onto. Just be sure you know <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/organization\/10-surprising-things-that-need-climate-controlled-storage\/\">which items need climate-controlled storage<\/a>.*&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Know When to Take a Break&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Decluttering involves a lot of taxing decision-making, and it\u2019s not always possible to tackle these projects in a day or a weekend. To avoid burnout, break down tasks to ease the overwhelm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re finding yourself hitting a wall, take a break, but don\u2019t let the project stall for too long. Avoiding prolonged procrastination brings you that much closer to your goal of a sustainably organized space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-to-Organize-a-Bedroom-with-Too-Much-Stuff\">How to Organize a Bedroom with Too Much Stuff<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_bedroom.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DFFt-EWOPA_\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">thetidyhomenashville<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Because they\u2019re more private and often include closets, bedrooms are especially prone to building up clutter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best tip on how to organize a bedroom with too much stuff is to move through the room step by step, instead of trying to do it all at once. Use this approach to work through a cluttered bedroom at a steady pace:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Start with Clothes&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Purge items in your closet that don\u2019t fit, have holes or other damage, or don\u2019t suit your style anymore. For the pieces you want to keep, organize them by type to make folding and hanging easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Declutter Surfaces<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s surprising how many random items accumulate on bedroom furniture like nightstands and dressers. Walk through the bedroom, removing items that don\u2019t belong on surfaces and placing them in a box for later sorting. Toss any garbage while you\u2019re at it and take dishes back to the kitchen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Add in Storage Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Under-bed storage is an ideal place to store out-of-season clothing or spare bedding. Other storage options like shelf dividers, drawer organizers, and over-the-door shoe organizers can help you maximize space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Move Furniture to Maximize Space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll want to keep all walkways as open and unobstructed as possible. Consider removing nonessential furniture, like armchairs, and opting for pieces that can double as storage, like an ottoman with built-in storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Find a Clear Home for Essential, High-Use Items<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you have essential items like bedside lamps, alarm clocks, and phone chargers placed in convenient spots. Consider placement hacks like putting your laundry hamper next to your dresser so dirty clothes stay contained whenever you change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Sprinkle in Sentimental Items Sparingly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A small number of keepsakes can make a bedroom feel more personal and restorative. But try not to overdo it\u2014too many items can make the space feel cluttered again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-to-Organize-a-Small-Room-With-Too-Much-Stuff\">How to Organize a Small Room With Too Much Stuff<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bedroom.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DKACK21t0m2\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">bygemmma<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While larger bedrooms offer more flexibility with furniture and storage, every item and layout choice matters in a small room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When figuring out how to organize a small room with too much stuff, the goal is to make storage work for you without overcrowding. Here are some tips to make it easier:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Transform Walls and Doors Into Usable Space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most effective ways to organize a small room, or any room at all, is to think beyond floor level. In small rooms like offices, try adding a pegboard to hang tools or notes. Floating shelves and over-the-door racks can also help expand storage space without adding more furniture. These are perfect for office supplies, books, and other items that need to stay within reach but off the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Choose Multi-Purpose Furniture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you must add more furniture to the room, choose pieces with built-in storage, such as couches with undercushion storage. For closets, consider modular closet systems, stackable containers, and drawer organizers to keep items from getting unruly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Do a Test Run&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you work through ways to organize your room, try doing a test run between zones. For example, if you\u2019re at your desk, test walking to each storage zone that you may need to access on a given day. If you find yourself getting tripped up or needing more space, you may need to adjust the layout.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Reclaim Space with a Storage Unit&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When a small room starts to take on the vibe of \u201ctoo much stuff, not enough space,\u201d it can be a sign that oversized, rarely used, or seasonal items are taking over. Moving those belongings into a self-storage unit can instantly free up room and make your space feel more livable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-to-Organize-Your-Room-So-It-Stays-Organized\">How to Organize Your Room So It <em>Stays<\/em> Organized<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_room_so_stays_organized.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DFE_XplK3C2\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">houseobsessed<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning how to organize your room is only half the battle. The real win is setting up your space with systems that naturally support your habits and routines, making it easier to organize clutter regularly. The following strategies help rooms stay organized for the long haul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Remember the Zoning Method<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The same zoning practice that helped you while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/the-essential-sorting-guide-for-decluttering-your-space\/\">decluttering your space<\/a> can also help you keep things tidy long-term. For instance, treat your hobby zone as a dedicated space for activities like art, and avoid letting mail, bills, and other important documents pile up there. Instead, stack those documents neatly at your desk until they\u2019re resolved, trashed, or moved into long-term storage. When everything has a designated home, it\u2019s a lot easier to keep a room clutter-free.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Use Clear, Stackable Bins with Labeling Systems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When storing items, use clear bins so you can easily see what\u2019s in them. Stackable plastic bins are especially useful for saving space. When stacking them, add labels or color coding tags to help you identify the container you need at a glance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Build Two-Minute Daily Reset Habits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Small daily habits, like a two-minute reset, can help prevent small messes from becoming major clutter projects. A two-minute daily reset is exactly what it sounds like: a quick, focused tidy that you do once a day to reset key areas of your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of each day, set a two-minute timer and focus on one or two high-touch areas, such as your nightstand, dresser top, or entryway. Put items back where they belong, clear obvious clutter, and straighten what\u2019s already there. When the timer goes off, stop\u2014you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure where to start, ask yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What zones in my home will I use most tomorrow?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What items tend to pile up there?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What quick cleanup would make tomorrow feel easier?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These short resets aren\u2019t about deep cleaning or perfection. Done consistently, they help keep clutter under control and make your space feel calmer day to day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Adopt the \u201cOne In, One Out\u201d Rule<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another strategy to help keep things organized is adopting the \u201cone in, one out\u201d rule: For any item you bring into your home, you must get rid of something else. This simple system can prevent items from piling up over time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-to-Organize-a-Small-Bathroom\">How to Organize a Small Bathroom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_how_to_organize_small_bathroom.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DK0fm4XRxQF\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">brightlyorganized<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Smart organization is crucial for keeping small bathrooms functional and clean, especially if you share the space with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a simple process on how to organize a small bathroom so it stays efficient and clutter-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Declutter and Toss as Much as You Can<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Expired or partially used products are the biggest culprits of bathroom clutter. Clear out as much as you can and remove any non-essential items.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Make Zones by Purpose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Place your daily essentials in one easy-to-access location, such as a bin, then create zones for other items like cleaning supplies and extra toiletries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Maximize Vertical Space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your small bathroom doesn\u2019t have a lot of storage, consider adding hooks, door racks, or an above-the-toilet organizer to maximize vertical space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Choose the Right Containers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Clear containers, drawer organizers, and Lazy Susans can keep items in bathroom drawers and cabinets contained and easy to find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Create Reset Habits&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes all it takes is a couple of daily or weekly habits to keep your small bathroom tidy. For example, keep your countertop clear by storing daily items elsewhere, or make it a habit on Saturday evenings to tidy surfaces as you run a rejuvenating bath.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Using-Self-Storage-to-Maximize-Space\">Using Self-Storage to Maximize Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space-800x420.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space-750x394.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space-1140x599.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/img_self_storage_maximize_space.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image via Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DCCwa3nB8MX\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">cubesmart<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve tried the decluttering strategies above and you\u2019re still struggling with too much stuff and not enough space, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/organization\/how-to-organize-a-storage-unit\/\">a self-storage unit<\/a> might be the best practical solution. Here are our tips for using self-storage to make the most of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Keep Your Home Space Functional<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of cramming seasonal decor, sports gear, or collectibles into every available corner, move these occasional-use items into a self-storage unit. Even that armchair you took out of your bedroom could be stored there.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Rotate Items as Seasons Change&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Switch out the summer camping gear and other warmer-weather recreation items in your home with holiday decor and ski gear from your storage unit as the weather cools. That way, your home stays stocked with the things you need and stays readily accessible, without unnecessary items cluttering it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Store Items During Transition Periods<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>During moves, renovations, or major decluttering projects, it can help to temporarily store items that are meaningful but not used day-to-day. Items such as memorabilia, photos, and vinyl records take up space and require thoughtful sorting, making them good candidates for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage\/climate-controlled-storage\/\">climate-controlled storage<\/a>* until you have time to review them properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Incorporate Sustainable Organizational Habits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Within your storage unit, group items into clear zones so everything has a defined place. Labels or color-coding stickers on clear plastic containers are especially helpful. If you opt for color-coding, keep a legend of all the colors and their meanings within the storage unit to remind you next time you visit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep Your Rooms More Organized with CubeSmart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning how to organize your room doesn\u2019t have to be difficult.
