Organize Your Cleaning Supplies Like a Professional

If you’ve ever wasted time digging through a cluttered cupboard just to find glass cleaner or a spare sponge, it’s time for an upgrade. Organizing your cleaning supplies like a pro not only saves time—it also makes cleaning feel less like a chore. Here’s how to do it step by step:

1. Start with a Clean-Out

Empty your cleaning cupboard, basket, or shelves completely. Toss anything expired, leaking, or unnecessary. If you haven’t used it in the last year, you probably don’t need it.

2. Group Items by Use

Organize your products by task:

  • Bathroom cleaners
  • Kitchen sprays and degreasers
  • Glass and surface cleaners
  • Floor products
  • Tools (brushes, microfiber cloths, sponges)

This makes it easier to grab what you need for each job.

3. Use Clear Storage Bins or Caddies

Keep items together using labelled plastic bins or handled caddies. This keeps everything tidy—and portable. You can grab the “bathroom” caddy and head straight to the job.

4. Prioritize Accessibility

Put your most-used items at the front or on an easy-to-reach shelf. Store heavy or rarely used products (like floor polish or steam mop attachments) below.

5. Hang and Hook Tools

Install hooks or racks on the inside of cupboard doors or walls to hang brooms, brushes, gloves, or dustpans. This clears up space and keeps tools dry and clean.

6. Label Everything

Use clear labels on bins, shelves, or even bottles. This makes it easy for anyone in your home to find (and put away) the right item.

7. Restock Monthly

Make it a habit to check your inventory at the start of each month. Add essentials like dish soap, disinfectant wipes, or trash bags to your grocery list before they run out.

💡 Bonus Tip: Let a Pro Handle It

If organizing supplies feels overwhelming—or if you simply don’t want to spend your weekend scrubbing—hire a professional cleaner. They’ll come prepared with their own high-quality products, save you time, and leave your home spotless.

🧽 Stay tidy, stay sane—and let the professionals do the heavy lifting when you need a break.
