How to Maximize Storage in Small Kitchens and Bathrooms

Jacob Evans • September 9, 2024

For homeowners with limited space, maximizing storage is a top priority. Whether you live in an apartment or older home, smart storage solutions transform cramped spaces into organized, functional rooms. In Pittsburgh, PA, where homes have smaller kitchens and bathrooms, using every inch of space is important make sure to getting the most out of your renovation.

Begin by utilizing vertical organization. Putting up tall  cabinets or shelving in your kitchen creates more counter space and offers storage for items. Adding shelves above the toilet or using wall mounted cabinets helps save floor space and provide storage for toiletries and towels.

Another approach is to use multi functional furniture. Consider using a kitchen island with built in storage. This adds counter space and provides extra storage for pots, pans, and utensils. In the bathroom, look for vanities with drawers or shelving, giving places to store toiletries and cleaning supplies.

Drawer organizers and pull out storage have an impact on kitchens and bathrooms. The kitchen has deep drawers with dividers for easy access to utensils, spices, and gadgets, as well as pull out pantry shelves to give more cupboard space. Having pull out shelves or baskets in cabinets in the bathroom helps keep belongings tidy and easily accessible.

Remember the possibility of concealed storage. Small spaces can benefit from toe kick drawers under cabinets, magnetic strips for utensils or tools, and over-the-door storage units as they can make a big difference.
