You Should Try This Popular Cart to Clean More Efficiently
How you store your cleaning supplies is important not only for safety reasons , but also for simply keeping your home tidy. Not having a protocol for storing cleaning products will only lead to clutter, which defeats the purpose of cleaning.
But you should also consider how easy it is to use the things you have hidden. If it’s too difficult to actually access and use your tools, you’re unlikely to do it. Cleaning cart popular on TikTok… TZ

When you’re storing and organizing your belongings, one of the most important rules to remember is that similar items should be classified together. This usually means you have to ditch all the Pine Sol, Windex, Clorox and Mr. Clean under the sink, but that doesn’t mean they’re easy to pull back out, let alone take them with you to other rooms that need cleaning. Instead, try storing everything on a cart, like this:
Popular on TikTok, this slim, rolling cart fits easily into small spaces, but is also portable, meaning you can take all your supplies with you around the house. My only additional recommendation is to make sure to get a cart with a sturdy handle in case you have a lot of stairs in your home. The one in the video has two small handles on the sides, but one with a larger handle and slightly deeper shelves is perfect for angling and dragging up steps. Consider this:
I also like it because the wheels lock, so whether it’s in storage or next to you while you’re cleaning, it won’t be rolling around all over the place.
Get the most out of your cleaning cart
The cart is great on its own, but it can be improved with a few small changes depending on the tools you use most often for cleaning.
-
A sponge holder ($9.99) attached to the side of the shelf will protect your sponges from getting your cart and cleaning products wet, and will also help your sponges dry after use.
-
These multi-function hooks (six for $10.75) keep brushes, sprayers, rags and other tools on the side of the cart for easy access and drying.
-
Some drawer organizers (25 for $18.45) will also help you group smaller items inside the cart so nothing moves around or gets lost.
When it comes to what to put in your cleaning cart, the short answer is “everything,” and the longer answer is “it depends on what you typically clean.” Basically, your cart should have everything you need for cleaning, so again, everything is in one place. You can dedicate the top shelf to kitchen cleaning products, the middle shelf to the bathroom, and the bottom shelf to everything else. If you have a lot of different cleaning products or many rooms, you might even consider purchasing two carts and organizing them based on your space.
