Organizing Products for Small Laundry Areas

Struggling with a tight, cluttered laundry space? Take back control by maximizing every inch of your laundry room with products that make a big impact! And as a bonus, all of these products are entirely renter-friendly!
Behind the Door Drying Rack
Hack your small space with this behind the door drying rack! This is the ultimate space saver that allows you to create an easily accessible hang-dry zone that doesn’t get in your way. The rack easily folds to take up virtually no room in your laundry space when not in use. Installation is simple- just slip the hooks over the top of your door and you’re all set to start hang-drying your delicates!
Collapsable Laundry Basket

A collapsible laundry basket is a must for a small space because you can easily transport your clean clothing to your folding area or to be put away without having to work about storing a bulky bin. Just press down on the sides of the bin to collapse the bin and store either tucked neatly next to your washer/dryer unit, or hang on a command hook on the wall or the back of your door.
Magnetic Basket

When working with a smaller laundry room, consider utilizing the body of your washer/dryer will help maximize your storage space. This magnetic basket is a great place to store dryer balls, smaller detergent bottles, stain removers, scent beads, and other laundry items you need close by. Bonus: since the basket is magnetic, it is renter friendly and very easy to install. Just place the unit on the side of your machine and fill with your favorite laundry products!
Magnetic Lint Bin

If you don’t have space for a trash can in your laundry room, or just want your floor to feel a little less cluttered, check out this magnetic lint bin to collect all of your dryer lint instead! The bin has plenty of room, so you won’t need to constantly empty it. Just like with the magnetic basket, this lint bin is incredibly simple to install and remove by magnetizing it to the side of your machine.
Magnetic Hanger Organizer

Hanger storage can be tricky due to their awkward shape and size. This two-tiered magnetic hanger organizer is perfect for storing hangers in your laundry room if you do not have space for a hanging rod! The two-tiered feature provides ample space to keep all the hangers you will need at your fingertips. Installation is simple- just place the magnetic organizer on the side of your machine and you’re ready to go!
TIP: Check out these slim and sturdy velvet hangers to save space in your closet while creating a seamless look! *Note: we do not advise putting wet clothing on velvet hangers. Instead utilize a drying rack and hang your items on hangers after they are dry!
Magnetic Door Prop

Our last magnetic product suggestion for small laundry spaces is great for those who have front loading washers and are tired of dealing with a mildew smell coming from inside their washer. This magnetic door prop ensures that your washer door stays open post-wash so the unit can air out, preventing mildew from growing inside. Plus, the prop is flexible enough to not get in the way when you try to close the door.
Adhesive Broom Hooks

If you have things like mops and brooms that you need to store in your laundry area, consider using these renter friendly adhesive broom hooks to make use of smaller wall spaces and the back of your door! Just add the included command strips, press on a clean surface, and you’re good to go!
Divided Bins

Have high shelves that are challenging to use? Coral your items into divided bins to make it easy to bring down each category all at once! You can even use the adjustable dividers to create further separation between categories!
