1
Sort pantry items
into like groups and
stow them together.
2
Transfer ingredients
to clear tubs (like the
Décor containers used
here) as you can easily
see what’s inside them.
3
Employ baskets and
containers to hold
groups of items. Square or
rectangular shapes make
the best use of space.
4
Position regularly used
products between eye
and waist level. Easy reach!
5
Refill supplies from
the back, bringing
older items to the front.
6
Put heavy products
on low shelves to
prevent accidents.
7
Affix racks to doors
for spices, plastic wrap
and foil. Also assemble
a set of ‘shelf raisers’ to
create mezzanine levels.
8
Review pantry items
each season; do
a total clear-out and
clean once a year.
9
Stick labels on shelves
to identify where items
belong; add sensor lights
to make them more visible.
10
If pantry moths or
weevils appear,
dispose of any spoiled
goods. Clean shelves and
containers. To catch moths,
buy traps from Bunnings.
To prevent weevils, freeze
newly bought dry goods
(flour, oats, rice etc) for
4–7 days to kill eggs and
larvae, if present. ➤
