That Cupboard You Dread Opening
Under the sink? Everyone's is chaos.
Bottles stacked randomly, half-empty duplicates, cloths you forgot existed, and something that fell down the back in 2019. Every time you open it, something falls out.
💡 Pro tip: 10 minutes of organization saves you 10 seconds every time you need something. Over a year, that adds up.

| See what you've got | Buy duplicates you already have |
| Easy to access what you need | Digging through clutter |

🔧 DIY Tips
Want to tackle it yourself? Here's how:
🧹 Before you start
- Have bin bags ready (you'll be surprised how much goes)
- Grab cleaning spray and cloth for the shelves
- Clear a workspace nearby to sort items
- Set aside 30 minutes uninterrupted
📦 The sorting process
- Empty everything - yes, everything, even the stuff at the back
- Check dates - bin anything expired or dried up
- Test lids - if it doesn't close properly, bin it
- Consolidate - three bottles with a bit in each? Combine or chuck
- Be honest - if you haven't used it in a year, you won't
🗂️ Organizing it back
- Frequency first: Daily-use items at front/eye level
- Category groups: All surface cleaners together, bathroom cleaners together
- Height matters: Tall bottles at back, small items in containers at front
- Under-sink bonus: Keep a tray under cleaning products to catch drips/spills
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Putting everything back without binning stuff first
- Not wiping shelves before reorganizing
- Keeping half-empty duplicates "just in case"
- No logic to organization - just randomly stuffing it back
💡 Pro trick: Use a lazy Susan or pull-out tray for under-sink cupboards. Game-changer for accessing items at the back without the avalanche.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🧼 Spring cleaning mode? While I'm tidying cupboards, I can sort other storage areas too - bathroom cabinet, utility cupboard, garage shelving. Bundle jobs together and save on the minimum callout.
Cleaners multiplying? Every surface cleaner does basically the same job. Pick your favourites, bin the rest.
Under-sink leaks? Common spot for problems. I'll spot any leaks while tidying and can usually fix simple plumbing issues there and then.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly do you do to tidy a cleaning cupboard?
Empty it out, bin the rubbish (dried-up bottles, ancient sponges, duplicates), wipe the shelves, then organize what's left logically - cleaners together, cloths together, tall bottles at back, frequently-used stuff accessible. Simple but effective.
Do I need to buy storage containers first?
Not essential. Often just reorganizing what you've got works fine. If you want baskets or containers for tidier storage, have them ready before I visit. But I can work with what you've got and make it functional.
Will you throw away half-empty bottles?
Only if you tell me to or they're clearly ancient/useless. I'll ask about anything questionable. But if you've got three bottles of the same cleaner all quarter-full, I'll suggest consolidating or binning. Your call though.
Can you organize other cupboards too?
Yes - kitchen cupboards, bathroom cabinets, utility room shelves. Same principle applies everywhere: empty, bin the rubbish, organize what's left sensibly. Multiple cupboards obviously takes longer.
What if there's a leak under the sink?
I'll spot it while tidying and let you know. Can usually fix simple leaks there and then if you want (loose connection, worn washer). At least you'll know about it before it gets worse.
