The laundry room is one area in the house that can become messy and cluttered in a matter of minutes. If your house is like mine, I just ask my teens to “clean their room” and suddenly that space goes from neat and tidy to a tornado zone. If you can relate, check out these 10 clever products that’ll help organize your laundry room!
Top 10 clever laundry room products:
1. Guard your laundry.
Wonder where that favorite shirt of yours disappeared to? Keep items from falling behind your front-load washer or dryer with this Haus Maus Laundry Guard. The Laundry Guard attaches to the top surface of washers and dryers with integrated magnets. By transforming the top into an enclosed work surface, it is more cost effective and convenient than installing a custom countertop. Genius!
Buy it on Amazon | $29.95
Don’t have a front-loader? IKEA’s Algot Upright Shelving System is a great way to prevent clothes from falling behind your appliances – and it gives you a lot of storage space, too! To close the gap between your washer and dryer, you can use this Sock Catcher or one of these Gap Filler gadgets.
