How to increase your home’s space in an eco-friendly way

As the cold season approaches, it may be time for you to fetch your winter jacket or get the fireplace logs ready.

This cold transition period may mean tidying your wardrobe, decluttering the closet or cleaning out the garden shed. Maybe it’s time to pull out the winter outfit items and tuck away the summer clothes for the season? Perhaps you go big on Halloween or Christmas decorations and have some organising to do?

We may also have certain hobbies that can end up taking more space than originally planned. Your home could end up strewn with everything from sports equipment and books to machinery or decoration tools!

Whilst doing the sorting-out chores, do you ever find yourself having accumulated too many things as the years go by, even when your home space isn’t growing? Perhaps you don’t exactly want to get rid of things but you are clearly running out of space?

How to increase your home space

Let’s explore some possible solutions.

 Option 1 – Organise the storage space

One obvious solution to this may be getting more organised and efficient with the existing closet or wardrobe space. From storage boxes to shelf-hanging wardrobes or new shelves, retailers like John Lewis offer a wide range of storage items to choose from.

With the help of online shopping, you can easily surf the online store and find exactly what you need by filtering style, price or delivery options.

Option 2 – Under-stair storage

Making the most of the under-stair storage may be a good solution forpeople who live in a multi-storey house. Perhaps you are not currently using that storage area at all, or you simply use it as a place to store your hoover, leaving little space for anything else?

It comes down to making the most use of existing space. It can be a good option to speak to experts capable of working out the exact requirements and proposing the most efficient fittings for your under-stair storage.

Option 3 – Organise your garage

Does your home have a garage? Maybe it needs a little decluttering? Again, using the space most efficiently might mean upgrading to a newer shelving or racking unit. Perhaps there is a better workshop bench that can save you space in the garage. The BiGDUG website offers leading solutions for different types of storage – including racks, shelves, cabinets, workbenches and more!

However, with none of these storage options mentioned so far would you be helping yourself whilst helping the environment at the same time. Increasing your home space in an eco-friendly way is the ideal solution to consider. Let’s explore this possibility.

Option 4 – Getting more use out of the loft

If you haven’t yet made the most out of your loft, read on.
