Welcome to the 30-Day Organize-athon!
In today’s 5 minutes we’re going to express-organize your fridge.
Let’s go!
Day 20: Organize Your Fridge
Step 1: Grab a bag and open your fridge. Quickly scanning your shelves from top to bottom, toss into the bag anything that:
- Has passed its use-by date
- Has wilted, sprouted, or smells funky
- No-one eats.
Step 2: Quickly wipe down the shelves (work around the remaining items).
Step 3: Do a quick tidy of the remaining items in your fridge.
And you’re done!
Got an Extra 5 Minutes?
Let’s freshen up the freezer:
- Scan your freezer and discard anything ancient, expired or of unknown provenance.
- Quickly wipe down the shelves or drawers.
- Do a quick tidy of the remaining items in your freezer.
Tomorrow we’ll declutter your pantry.

Done
Completed the task ….Day 20 already !
All done… nice clean fridge
This one had already been started, but spent time cleaning out the neglected shelves in the door. I like Jamie’s idea of the paper towels in the crisper drawer. I put a box of baking soda in the fridge to help with odors.
Already started on the pantry yesterday.
This was the one I was already planning for this morning. Boy does it smell better!
I had it perfectly organized yesterday! I emptied it ALL out, washed it and put it all in neatly…now it has to go back to ‘looking’ unorganized for a few days, because we have company coming and I need to FILL it with groceries!
Done!
Pretty easy since my fridge is empty
Done…I actually do this every week 🙂
Done yesterday, because we’re going away tonight for Spring Break. Have a wonderful holiday!
The fridge is now clean. I generally do it quite often but it needed a quick sort again today
Another easy one today. I always try to keep the fridge clean. Done.
Done!
Another idea: whenever we go away for the weekend or whatever I always clean out my fridge. I discard AND mop down the shelves because I’m emptying the fridge for going out of town and it’s nice and empty. 🙂
Done. I try to do this weekly, when taking the trash to the curb. Thanks.
Much needed before the Easter holiday – an having 10 friends in for dinner!! thanks again for all you do for us!!
Yippee! I did this yesterday, so I’m already done!!
Done – even washed the Tupperware containers.
All done!
All done.
