Has Your Basement become a Home for Homelss Things?


Basements can become a place for those items that we intend to deal with later. It’s so easy to forget all the things we have down there because we don’t see them every day.


The National Association of Professional Organizers in Michigan wants to share some ways to get your basement organized so that everything has a home.


1. Safety first. Make sure to clear the steps down to the basement of any items that are resting there. Make sure the path is clear so no one gets hurt.

Basement Organizing Tips

Escape the hot summer days and organize your basement this summer!  The National Association of Professional Organizers, Southeast Michigan Chapter (NAPO-MI) wants to share some tips to help you get organized in your basement.

1. Store items you rarely use in your basement, but think twice before you take it down there! Often it is a delayed decision which becomes clutter.

2. Create zones in your basement and use room dividers to establish different zones. Bookshelves make a great room divider!
