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.

D.O.N.E.
done 🙂
Kitchen stuff is often the hardest for me. Done!
Doing my 5 while listening to Garrison Keillor – yuk fridge!
Meant to add that I saw this blog post early that day and knew I’d done it and was going to post that I’d done it later, but this week has been very hectic and I didn’t get to it (posting about it) that day. So, just now, I did a bit more and posted again. 😀
I actually do this just before I do my major shopping. So, I just did it a little deeper and wiped it out. Done.
I keep mine pretty current as well. Done.
I express organize each Wed. and wipe down about every other week, (my other organizing website helps with that). Then, when I go shopping on Thursday I know what I need and there’s room for the new items. No more icky stuff in the back of the fridge!!:)
This is an area I’m fairly decent at but it’s always nice to hear the guidelines–always a new perspective to improve by… Thanks!
Done! Since my husband was out of the house, I took the time to get rid of all the sauces and marinades that are no longer good. He’ll never know they are gone. 🙂
Done! I usually do this once a week before grocery shopping day but this week I hadn’t gotten around to it… glad it’s all done now 😉
All done! Nlice an easy : )
I remembered last night that I hadn’t commented after I was in bed and the computer was shut down. Hope it’s OK I’m reporting in today. Done.
Done
Did this yesterday but forgot to comment!
Done….I had just had my old fridge die on me, so had bought a really nice one on Craigslist from my neighbor to make do until I redo my kitchen….so had already cleaned and sorted…
This was actually fun–I completely re-arranged the pantry to be more effecient. DONE!
Not done, but task is done. 🙂
done…my usual thursday to do 😉
It’s amazing how much accumulates in my fridge. The trash man will be happy.
