Store heavier items at the bottom shelves for ease of access.
Use upper cabinets for storing items that are not used daily, such as seasonal kitchenware or extra appliances.
Make sure to regularly rotate pantry items stored in upper cabinets, ensuring that older goods are used first.
Variations:
If you have deep upper cabinets, consider adding pull-out trays or baskets to make it easier to access items at the back.
If you’re limited on space, combine upper cabinet storage with over-the-door organizers for added versatility.
