Kitchen organization ideas to free up space

The kitchen is easily at the top of the list of areas in the home that can collect the most clutter. All of the gadgets, tools, small appliances, and little knick-knacks can create a disorganized space that makes it hard to enjoy cleaning and cooking. If you find yourself taking too much time looking for what you need or frustrated at the mess, there is hope! We’ve gathered some of the best kitchen organization ideas that will free up space, save you time, and help you enjoy your kitchen again.

Add a Lazy Susan

Despite the name, Lazy Susans are one of the hardest-working organizational accessories you can have in your kitchen. Keep in mind that you’re not limited to what’s available in stores. At Custom Roll Out Drawers, we have transformed entire areas of a large pantry and whole cupboards to function like a Lazy Susan. 

Here are just a few examples of how a Lazy Susan can serve as a convenient solution in a kitchen:

• As a rotating spice rack in a cupboard
• For easy access to pots and pans
• Keeping like items together, such as baking, canned goods, etc.

Rotating accessories eliminate having to reach into the back of cabinets and shelves to find what you need. They are great space-savers and can maximize even the smallest of kitchen areas.

Take advantage of tiered organizers

When you look at kitchen cupboards and cabinets, you’ll see plates and bowls stacked on top of each other with a lot of empty space above. We want to utilize this empty space as much as possible. Tiered organizers and shelving accessories are a great way to add levels and keep items visible, such as:

• Under-the-sink organization 
• Canned goods in the pantry
• Spices and condiments
• Coffee and tea

Remember, you’re not limited to what’s only available in stores. We can design a permanent solution that fits the exact dimensions of the cabinet, corner, closet, or other space that you’re looking to transform. 

Invest in custom roll-out drawers and shelves

When our kitchen, or any area of the house for that matter, becomes cluttered and disorganized, we know that there is a solution to the mess. However, what often stops us from starting the project is the overwhelm! And understandably so. It’s a challenge to peruse aisles at the store or Amazon for the right organizational accessories. It can be confusing to narrow down the hundreds of storage tips and solutions you can find online.

Investing in custom roll-out drawers and shelves means you have an expert by your side who can help you design and create a system that makes sense for your space. You don’t have to spend hours doing it on your own – and that’s the beauty of custom drawers. The result is a tidy space that gives you more joy than it does constraints, and a stress-free process that lightens the load.
