When it comes to organizing, it's easy to look at all the stuff we have and think, "Where
do I start?" Don't stress. Getting organized is a lot less complicated than you might think.
We'd like to share a couple organizational habits that can help you in any aspect of
your life, and with a little motivation, you can get organized before you know it. There
are four simple steps: sort, consolidate, organize, and maintain. Start by sorting your
things into three categories: discard, donate, and keep. When discarding, ask yourself, "Is
it worth taking up space?" If anyone would use it, then maybe its worth donating. If
you have a use for it now, then maybe its something you want to keep. Be strong and
honestly ask yourself, "Do I really need this thing?" Once you have your keep items established,
separate your often used from seldom used, and if there's something you don't need, throw
it away. Next, its time to consolidate. Separate everything from your keep pile into boxes,
piles, or containers. This process helps reduce stress by grouping all your things together
and makes it easy to find all your items. You'll also want to look into getting shelves,
hooks, or other storage items in place. Make sure that whatever things you buy will fit
your storage system, and will be the right size for your things. This will help minimize
wasted space. See through bins make it easy to see whats inside. Now its time to put everything
in its place. To get the most out of your space, stick to a couple rules that will make
getting and staying organized easy. Start by putting "no-brainer" things up first. Yard
and garden tools can go next to the door to the yard, house cleaning tools can go next
to the door to the house, and camping and sports equipment can go next to the vehicle
for easy loading and unloading. Second, store the things you use often, where they are easily
accessible, and store your less-used items where they're out of the way, like in the
attic, near the shed, or on high shelves. Storage systems that can separate your long-term
and short-term storage make it easy to maximize your efficiency, and maintain your sanity.
Third, storing things in sections can be a huge help. Boxes with tax records, Christmas
items, his and hers and so on, can be grouped together. Remember that when you know where
something goes, it's easier to keep clean and organized on a consistent basis. With
steps one to three done, the piles are gone, everything has a place, and the stress is
melting away. If you take it day by day, you can stay on top of your storage, and live
a more carefree and manageable life. And remember, Monkey Bar Storage offers the smartest and
strongest garage storage system ever designed. By putting long-term storage on top, and frequently
used items hanging below, everything is up off the floor, and grouped in layers. To learn

and your storage, is now more simple than ever.
