STEP 3 – Find Some Containers and Label Them
If you don’t have a big store of tupperware in your house, then you may need to go to the store and buy some before you start the process. This is what I did, hence why you see a ruler in the first picture. I had to measure my freezer to make sure the tupperware I bought would fit.
If you already have some tupperware, great. You can go ahead and start putting the products into the tupperware. My advice is to fill the boxes first and put them in the freezer, then create the labels. This reduces the amount of time your freezer products will be outside of the freezer.
Once you’ve put all the filled containers into the freezer, you can go ahead and make some labels. Don’t worry, you don’t need any fancy label makers, you can simply use small scraps of paper and transparent tape. That’s what I did on the boxes on the top shelf, but I was lucky because the boxes I bought for the bottom shelf already had label strips.
STEP 4 – Tidy Up Leftover Items
When you have finished categorizing and labeling, you will probably have a few different items left over that didn’t fit in the boxes. For me, it was ice trays. For some reason, I had tons – probably more than anyone would need. I guess you can never have enough ice, right?
It doesn’t really matter if you have a few items that didn’t fit the boxes because your newly organized freezer should still have a ton of room available.
It’s been a few weeks since I organized my freezer, and I’m still going strong on the organisation front. My advice is to remove any items you aren’t using regularly. I do this every time I do a grocery shop, so I can stay on top of things and not end up with too much in there.
Good luck with your organising!
