How to clean up your refrigerator before a new life is born

Many people open the refrigerator with a certain degree of apprehension. There is a different world full of surprises. No one knows what kind of substance it is in the bag, and the remains of the sausage disappeared without a trace among the piles of jars and bowls. How to turn this terra incognita into a convenient storage for products, says Olga Lysenko from the service for ordering cleaning Qlean.

Conduct an audit

Throw away food that has gone bad once a week. Most often these are yoghurts, bottles of sauces, jars of capers, or something else such a filling and seasoning that is used once every five years, and in free time it quietly goes out. An open bottle of sauce has a short shelf life. Yes, this is the most real and correct tkemali, but it has been in the refrigerator since the time of Queen Tamara and has already turned into a biological weapon.

Use office file holders

This simple thing will dramatically increase the capacity of the refrigerator. If you place the racks vertically, you can stack bottles in them. And in a horizontal position, they turn into additional shelves.

Store sauces correctly

Squeezing mustard or ketchup out of a half-empty bottle can be tricky. To make it easier, store sauces upside-down in an egg carton.

Use zip packages

You can immediately see what lies in such packages. They are more ergonomic, take up less space and do not leak. Just write when exactly you froze this rabbit fillet and cod.

Move the soda to the closet

Two-liter bottles of cola take up a lot of space, and they don't need to be kept in the refrigerator at all, they feel great under the table or in the closet. In order to take a sip of a cold one, it is better to keep ice in the freezer and add it directly to the glass.

Buy containers

But not just any, but square ones. A square container will fit more, it will take up less space in the refrigerator than a round one (or a plate), and the lid will not let the leftovers wind up and transfer its smell to all other products in the refrigerator.

And baskets

Plastic baskets are very handy. If you put food in them, then in order to get a jar hidden near the wall, you will not need to methodically pull everything out and put it on the table. By the way, eggs can also be stored in such a basket (who even came up with the idea of selling dozens of eggs, and building a wardrobe trunk into the refrigerator to store only six units ?!).
