Our top 4 favourite hacks for organising kitchen storage

kitchen storage

We spend so much time in our kitchens it’s only natural that every now and then they need a de-clutter, whether it be from pantry food, cleaning supplies or crockery. Sometimes it’s best to just bite the bullet and rid yourself of any unnecessary bits and bobs. There is a catch though, because if you don’t address the root of the problem – the storage – then it’s going to slowly build up again over time.

Don’t worry though, there is a simple solution! In the name of efficiency, Savoy Timber we’ve gathered our favourite four DIY-friendly kitchen storage hacks so you can stylishly and cleverly organise your pantry, cupboards or laminate kitchen worktops and bid farewell to disorganisation forever!

Free up that fridge

Everyone’s been there – it comes time to clean out the fridge and you end up pulling out miscellaneous jars of preserves, pastes and sauces you can’t even remember buying – especially in a busy household. Overly crammed fridge shelves can make it incredibly difficult to see what’s going on in there – so it’s not your fault! 

What’s the solution? Stackable fridge bins! It’s simple, it’s easy and it’s oh-so-convenient. These handy little containers are easy to pull out and wash. Plus, they’ll keep your produce fresher for longer, your shelves sparkling and you’ll actually be able to see everything in your fridge, allowing for better meal planning! You can pick these up online or in supermarkets, and the best part is they’re totally inexpensive.

Clear out those cupboards

Had enough of blindly reaching into the back of the cupboard looking for that one spice or sauce packet you know is there but just can’t seem to find? Don’t worry, we get it. However, in 2023, there is an easier, more convenient solution to this problem – pull-out kitchen storage systems. These handy little storage solutions simply fit onto your pre-existing cupboard spaces to provide you with the ultimate pull-out solution. Now it’s easier than ever to maximise your cupboard space, see everything you need and get easy access. What could be better than that?

Maximise your mug space

We don’t know about you, but we love a brew here at Savoy Timer. And we know all too well that it’s just too easy to get a little trigger happy with tea and coffee supplies. Resisting the urge to just get one more thing when there’s so much on offer is hard – especially when it comes to cups and mugs. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone! We all love a fun mug, don’t we? (Despite the fact we all pick a favourite and only ever seem to use that one.)

Anyway, what if we told you there’s a way to hone your mug collection, while at the same time conserving kitchen space? This little hack is even DIY friendly, and it goes by the name of mug hooks. This will literally take you less than half an hour to do. And you can screw these hooks anywhere – under your cupboards, inside your cupboards, in your pantry, the wall… the list goes on. You can even make a feature out of some of your favourite mugs so they double as decor. Now that’s what we call efficiency! Plus you won’t have them sitting out on your laminate kitchen worktops and you won’t have to worry about them getting chipped

Pots, pans and storage plans

The pots and pans are arguably one of the harder things to keep neat and tidy, simply because they’re so large. Keeping on top of lids can be a nightmare too, and don’t even get us started on trying to find the right sized lid when you need it. So, if you have a bunch of bulky pots and pans in your cooking arsenal – it’s time to invest in a storage rack. Storage racks are the ultimate solution to this problem: lost lids, easy access and convenient stacking await! They also come in many shapes and sizes, so whether you need one fit for the countertops or one you can keep tucked away in the corner, or even in a cupboard, you’re never short of options.

Now you have all the kitchen hacks for storage you could ever need! These tips and tricks will ensure that your kitchen is clutter free and organised for the foreseeable.
