Decluttering Under the Bathroom Sink

Decluttering Under the Bathroom Sink

Author: Angela Brown June 2, 2022 Duration: 5:36
Decluttering underneath the bathroom sink is a quick win if done right. I'm not here to show you fancy organizing bins and under-the-sink storage ideas - just a few quick rules to help us get rid of items that are taking up space for items no longer used. 
If you are looking for small bathroom organization ideas - the first step is to declutter the items you don't need or want. This creates space for better organization.

NOTE: I do want to give a shoutout to the homeowner whose sink we cleaned under because she was storing her items in a clear plastic bin, which made seeing inside the bins easy so she didn't buy duplicates of the same items. 

Today's Ask a House Cleaner sponsor is #HoardingWorld a program helping people change their relationship with stuff. They paid for the show, so you don't have to.  And your host today is #AngelaBrown
