This client called Organize Your World, Inc. to help organize their storage room in their basement because:
  1. Items were not being stored effectively, so they were running out of room
  2. They didn't know what was there already
  3. They felt they were wasting a lot of time around the holidays trying to find their decorations
  4. They were concerned about how things were stored and if they were protected
  5. They were frustrated each time they went into this room, but they didn't know where to start

Solution:
Organize Your World, Inc. worked with this client to better understand what the client hoped to store in this space. Here's what we did:

  2. We grouped all of the holiday items by the appropriate holiday
  3. We purchased bins to protect their items from insects, moisture, etc. The bins also stack very well to maximize their space
  4. We labeled all of the bins so they don't need to open anything to find what they are looking for
