The typical closet is a messy one. Laziness may add to the problem, but the biggest part is usually the limitations of a simple closet. With only a hanger bar and two shelves, your average closet is not as great for organization as it might seem. There are many things you can do to create an organized closet space, and several of these solutions are quite affordable.

Determine what kind of storage you need

Everyone's storage needs are different. Some people mostly store hanging clothes in their closet and have no need for much else. These are the people who tend to stay the most organized. There are others, however, for whom organization is not so easy. Some people own lots of shoes, for example. The floor of a closet is often insufficient for proper shoe storage. People with lots of pants and other items that are stored flat are sure to find that the single shelf that runs along the top of most closets is never quite enough for storing all of their clothes properly.

To make the most of your space, start by cleaning out the closet and determining what items you truly do need. This step alone can do wonders for organization. Consider a customized closet organization system

The easiest way to organize your closet is to purchase a system specifically designed to store your things. To find out more about this concept, visit easyclosets.com or a similar site. You can find fully-customizable organization solutions for almost any closet. The products at easyclosets.com are of a supremely high building quality and built from real wood. They are intended for those who want the most elegant solution to common storage problems. Some of the options they offer include fold-out tie racks and revolving shoe storage. Call or visit the website to get an estimate.

Consider inexpensive closet organization systems

If money is tight, simply head over to your local Target or Wal-mart. Many inexpensive closet organization systems work in a similar fashion to the ones that cost lots of money. They are not as elegant, sure, but when there is a difference of several thousand dollars, a less attractive, but still functional, closet may work best for you. Most stores like Target or Wal-mart sell plastic shoe organization kits and spare shelves. Consider purchasing a set of hanging shelves to truly expand your storage capacity. These shelves are usually made of polyester and plastic. They attach to the hanger bar that runs along the length of your closet. You may have to sacrifice a bit of hanger space, but in return you can get as many as eight extra shelves.

Overall, there are many ways to organize your closet, but closet organization systems are a tidy person's best friend. Make sure to check out the many types of systems out there and find one that suits your storage needs perfectly.
