Under-Sink Bathroom Organization (Around the Pipes)

The cabinet under a bathroom sink is awkward because of the pipes, and that's exactly why it turns into a pile. Plan around the plumbing instead of fighting it.

Step 1: Empty and check

Take everything out. Check for leaks or water damage while it's empty, and toss expired products. Medications usually belong somewhere cool and dry, not in a humid bathroom.

Step 2: Sort into three groups

• Daily: goes to the front.
• Backstock: extra toothpaste and soap, in one labeled bin.
• Cleaning: in a caddy you can carry to the tub.

Step 3: Use both sides of the pipe

• A two-tier under-sink organizer with an adjustable or U-shaped design that fits around pipes.
• Clear bins with handles slide out like drawers.
• Cabinet door organizers for hair tools and brushes.
• A cleaning caddy
• A waterproof shelf liner protects against drips.

Label and maintain

Label the front of every bin. Restock from backstock when you write your weekly shopping list during your planning routine.

Same idea, different room: kitchen drawer zones.
