Which of the following statements describe the help you’ve received in managing your organizing projects? (Check all that apply or have applied in the past.)
  • I have enlisted one or more members of my household to help with decluttering and/or organizing.
Where do you shop for organizing products? (Check all that apply.)
  • Big-box retail store (Walmart, Target, etc.)
  • Home improvement store (Home Depot, Lowes, etc.)
  • Office supply store (Staples, OfficeMax, etc.)
  • Online store (Amazon, Overstock, Wayfair, etc.)
Describe an organizing product, resource, book, video, or other solution that you bought but never used—at least not for the purpose for which you purchased it.Wire thing that some use to organize pot lids.
For which collections or categories of stuff do you find it difficult to obtain or employ organizing and storage solutions, and why?My husband's office supplies and work papers, and his hobby and tool collections in the basement. He doesn't think or sort or organize like I do, so he won't use what I think would work well.
What’s your personal favorite inexpensive or free organizing solution? We’d love to hear about furniture, shipping boxes, food containers, craft supplies, or other unlikely items that you’ve ingeniously repurposed to hold your stuff.Cardboard boxes of any kind --- cereal, shoe, paper boxes, those really nice boxes that smart phones come in. I use what I have, and cut/tape as needed if too long, too tall, etc. I've often thought that I'll replace them with fancier ones at some point...but why bother? Most work very well as is, so why go to the expense to get containers that probably won't fit as well as those I've customized?
