drawers that never seem to have enough space. The creation of additional drawers in the fridge by

adding square tubs will also give rise to the effective

meat or cheese or vegetables, and so these items

will usually get grouped together. This is a good

procedure and should be extended to include all

other forms of food stuffs.

the refrigerator should be designated for a specific

food type. By bundling the dairy with the dairy and

the protein with the protein, a family will be able to find the ingredients they are in need of without the

frustration of extended scouring.

or rectangular based tubs. The inside of almost all refrigerators are rectangular or square in shape.

amounts of space due to their ill-fitting shape. Take advantage of the design of the refrigerator by going

along with it in buy only buying square shaped tubs.

Organizing the Fridge The same space save principle applies when buy Tupperware for storing leftovers. These bins should be

square or rectangle in shape to make the most use out of the space available.

persons in the house will remember to eat them before they go to waste.

a time on the doors as to preserve space for condiments and other smaller items of frequent use.
