How to Organize Your Closet:
Deciding What to Store
in Your Space




How to Organize Your Closet

Your master closet should be used only for the storage of clothes, footware, and accessories that are in active rotation in your wardrobe. Over time, however, a jumbled mess of random, miscellaneous stuff can accumulate. As a result, it can be difficult to locate specific things when you need them and to find room to store new purchases. The solution is to remove the items that do not belong in your closet and to find new storage areas to place them.

To start, identify items that are presently stored in your closet but that would more effectively be stored elsewhere. These may include luggage, photo albums, gifts, personal papers, home decor accents, wrapping paper, and dirty laundry. Some less obvious items that you should also remove include out of season clothes, blankets and linens, and jackets and other outerwear.

Next, find alternative storage spaces for these items that make sense. Here are some solutions that may work for you:
  • Use underbed organizers for out of season clothing.
  • Place blankets and linens in a trunk.
  • Store outerwear in a hall closet or the basement, if out of season.
  • Put luggage on a ceiling shelf in the garage.
  • Store photo albums on a bookcase and personal papers in a desk or in a bankers box in the basement, locker, or attic.
  • Put dirty laundry in a hamper in the bathroom or in a storage unit.
By removing these miscellaneous items from your closet, you'll free up valuable storage room. This will enable you to more effectively use your space to store more of what matters.
