Under sink cupboard emptied, cleaned, and reorganised so you can actually find cleaning products and bin bags. Logical storage, old junk cleared, everything accessible.
When Your Under-Sink Is Chaos
You need bin bags. You know they're under there. But you have to remove three bottles of mystery cleaner, a bag of carrier bags, and something that might have been a sponge once.
Half hour to turn it from junk drawer to actual useful storage.
💡 Pro tip: Under-sink cupboards get neglected because you have to crouch down to reach them. A good reorganisation makes everything visible and easy to grab.

🔧 DIY Tips
Tidying your own under-sink is very doable:
🔧 What you'll need
- Bin bags (for rubbish)
- Cleaning cloth and spray
- Maybe a small shelf insert (optional)
- 30 minutes
📋 Sorting process
- Empty everything out (yes, ALL of it)
- Wipe inside of cupboard while it's empty
- Group items: cleaning products, bin bags, dishwasher stuff, misc
- Bin anything old, half-empty, or mystery liquid
- Put back organized: most-used at front, categories together
🧼 Good organisation tips
- Lazy Susan turntable for bottles (easy access to stuff at back)
- Door-mounted rack for cloths and sponges
- Shelf insert to create two levels
- Small caddy for regularly-used products (grab whole caddy out)
⚠️ Common DIY mistakes
- Putting it all back without sorting (defeats the point)
- Keeping stuff "just in case" (you won't use it)
- Not checking for leaks while you're under there
- Buying elaborate storage systems when simple works fine
💡 Pro trick: Store bin bags in the bin under the sink - fold a few into the bottom of the bin liner. When you change the bag, there's already fresh ones right there.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🎨 While I'm there: Under-sink tidy is quick. If you've got other kitchen organization (drawer tidy, cupboard sort, pantry reorganize), we can tackle them in the same visit.
Leak checking: Part of the tidy involves checking the pipework under your sink. If there are signs of leaks (damp base, mineral deposits, dripping), I'll let you know what needs fixing.
Disposal of cleaning products: Old cleaning products shouldn't just go in the bin - some need proper disposal. If you've got loads of old chemicals, I can advise on what to do with them (usually recycling center has hazardous waste section).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does under sink tidying actually involve?
Empty everything out, wipe down the inside (gets grimy under there), bin old/expired products, check for leaks, reorganise what's left logically (cleaning products together, dishwasher tablets accessible, rarely-used stuff at back), maybe add a simple shelf or organiser if helpful.
Will you get rid of old cleaning products?
Yes - part of the tidy is clearing out half-empty bottles of things you'll never use, crusty old sponges, products from 2015. I'll ask before binning anything, but usually it's obvious what's dead weight. Proper disposal of cleaning chemicals if needed.
Can you fix leaks while you're under there?
Simple ones yes - tighten a loose pipe connection, replace a worn washer. Major plumbing issues need a proper plumbing job. But part of the tidy is checking for problems, so I'll spot anything that needs attention.
Do I need to buy storage things first?
Not necessarily. Often a tidy and reorganisation using what you've got works fine. If I think a shelf insert or storage caddy would help, I'll suggest it - they're cheap (£5-15). Or you can buy something specific and I'll fit it as part of the tidy.
How long does it stay tidy for?
Depends if you put things back where they live! The tidy creates a sensible system - most-used stuff at front, categories together. If you maintain it (don't just chuck stuff in randomly), stays organized. But under-sink cupboards do gradually descend into chaos - nature of them.
