Pantry organized properly - everything visible, accessible, and logically arranged. I'll sort containers, add labels, optimize shelf space, and help you reclaim that chaotic cupboard.
### Stop Buying Things You Already Own
You can't see what's at the back. You've got **three jars of cumin** because you keep forgetting you already have some. That pasta you bought in 2019 has **moved to the back** and started its own civilization.
Every shopping trip, you buy duplicates. Every time you cook, you **can't find what you need**. It's costing you money and driving you mad.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** A well-organized pantry saves you money - you can actually see what you have, so you stop buying duplicates and food doesn't expire before you use it.

Good to Know
> 🧹 **Spring cleaning?** This is the perfect time to do a proper pantry clear-out. I'll help you be ruthless with expired stuff and reorganize what's left. **Can't reach high shelves?** We'll make sure frequently-used items are within easy reach. Can add a small step stool if that helps. **Old house with awkward cupboards?** Exeter houses often have weird pantry configurations - narrow, deep, or strangely shaped. There's always a solution - sometimes it's baskets that pull out, sometimes it's better shelving.
Frequently Asked Questions about Pantry organisation in Newton Abbot
Do you supply the storage containers and labels?
You can buy them yourself if you've got a system you like, or I can advise what you need and pick them up. Usually a mix of clear containers, baskets, and maybe some shelf risers. I'll price it up based on your pantry size.
Will you help me decide what to throw away?
I'll point out anything that's expired or looks dodgy, but the decision's yours. Some people want a ruthless clear-out, others are more sentimental. I'm here to organize, not judge your food hoarding!
What if my pantry shelves are too far apart or badly positioned?
We can add shelf risers to create more levels, or I can fit additional shelves if you want that done properly. Sometimes it's worth investing in better shelf positions - makes a huge difference.
How do you decide what goes where?
Most-used stuff at eye level, heavy things low down, rarely-used high up. Group similar things together. Baking stuff, breakfast items, tins, etc. I'll ask how you cook and arrange it to suit you.
Will you label everything or is that extra?
Basic labeling is included - I'll bring a label maker or we can use nice labels if you've got them. If you want something fancy or decorative, bring your own labels and I'll apply them.
