Laundry Room Organization Ideas

Organizing can be very therapeutic for some people. It provides an excellent level of satisfaction and can be a great way to create order within your hectic life. The laundry room is an essential space in every home. When it comes to organizing that area, patience and creativity are key.

This space requires a lot of supplies from detergents, softeners, bleaches, dryer sheets, and stain removers. You may feel that it can be challenging to keep all areas of your home organized and decluttered at times. Utilizing storage cabinets, especially in your laundry room, can help. 

You can be very creative with the labeling on your cabinets as well. If you have access to a Cricut machine, many people have found that creating labels unique to their supplies in this area has helped them remain organized. If not, Etsy has excellent labels that can be utilized on nearly any surface to help you stay organized.

Installing a folding station will help you stay organized and ensure that your clothes do not get wrinkled or lost in the transition of going from your laundry room to your closet. They are ideal if you have a smaller home and lack extra space. You can add drapes in front of your washer, dryer, and folding station to keep it hidden.

Folding your clothes may not sound like the most fun thing to do on a Sunday afternoon, so try listening to a podcast or playing your favorite music to help the time go by faster.

Labeled laundry baskets are another great way to help you stay organized. You may or may not separate your whites from your darks, but having a system in place will help you save time. You can also separate your clothes based on if they need a little extra tender love and care, such as those stubborn stains from lunch last week.

Start making it a habit to place your clothes into their designated sections at the end of each day.  Also, have labeled hampers for each member of your family so your children stop fighting over lost socks.

Life can be very unpredictable, so it’s best to always be prepared. Using a rolling cart will allow you to keep all of your detergents, softeners, and other cleaning products in an organized space that is easily accessible. You’ll be able to remove tough stains before they settle in.

If you are looking for creative ways to stay organized in all areas of your home, including your laundry room, Etsy is a great resource to utilize. Better Home & Gardens recommends adding small accent letters onto your laundry wall to give you that extra boost of motivation. 

Suppose you are on the home organization side of Tik-Tok. In that case, you may be familiar with how many people are using refillable dispensers in their homes to make them more aesthetically pleasing as well as organized.

Refilling your dispensers with your favorite fabric boosters, detergents, OxiClean, and other supplies is not only very satisfying but will help reduce the clutter of having multiple plastic containers of the same product.

Do you love drinking coffee on your way to work? If you are like most people, the answer is “yes!” However, just like other drinks, coffee can leave horrible stains on your clothes but don’t worry! With a stain chart easily accessible, removing them has never been so easy.

Be sure to place your stain chart on a wall at eye level to quickly view when those accidents do happen.

Whether you have a small or large family, it is essential to keep all spaces of your home organized, starting with your laundry room. Bring in storage cabinets, a rolling cart, and a few refillable dispensers to really whip that space into shape! Also, never underestimate the power of Etsy!
