Small Space Organization Planner

Too many items The space contains more belongings than it can reasonably support. No assigned location Frequently used belongings do not have a clear place to return to. Difficult access Important items are stored too high, too low, too deep, or behind other objects. Cluttered surfaces Tables, counters, desks, or furniture quickly collect unrelated items. Poorly fitting storage Containers waste space, block access, or do not match the items being stored. Restricted movement Furniture or stored items make it difficult to move through the room safely. Multiple purposes The same room is used for work, sleep, storage, study, exercise, or other activities. Difficult maintenance The room looks organized temporarily but quickly returns to its previous condition.

3. Evaluate the Available Storage

Closets or cabinets are available. Drawers are available. Open shelves are available. Usable space exists under a bed, sofa, desk, or other furniture. Vertical wall space may be available. The back of a door may support removable or approved storage. The room currently has very little useful storage.
