Neglecting to reset your spaces regularly.
Using different shapes and sizes of bins together.
Storing items in areas you dont see often.
That habit, though, can cause a whole slew of problems down the line.
I like to use clear bins because they allow for a quick visual and save me time.
Bonus: when we use clear bins we tend to keep the contents of them looking nice and neat.
Choosing open bins without lids for storage.
Stacking too many storage bins on top of each other.
If possible, use shelves to separate bins instead of stacking.
