Keep your fridge neat & tidy with these easy storage tips

If you’re sick of having an unorganised fridge, here are some easy tips that you can incorporate into your everyday life to help get the best out of your products whilst keeping your fridge looking stylish. It’s as easy as following these 6 steps!

Having designated shelves and compartments for specific food categories makes it easier for you to find things in the fridge. It also helps keep things neat and tidy when unpacking the grocery shop as it will become a routine to pop certain items in specific places. You can also be confident your produce is keeping fresher for longer with our range of VitaFresh fridges, perfect for storing fresh fruit and vegetables within ideal temperatures.

Not only are clear containers stylish but they’re also very helpful. When it comes to your next restock, using transparent storage containers allows you to clearly see the quantities of each product. This helps avoid buying unnecessary double-ups of items, saving you money in the long run and helping you avoid unnecessary food wastage. For some more tips on how to tackle food wastage, look here.

It’s important to keep track of how long things have been in your fridge to avoid foods going off and expiring. This is especially important when switching to containers as refrigerated items can go off quickly and create bad smells. Reusable chalk labels are the perfect solution to keep track of expiry or purchase dates.

Did you know that vegetables such as carrots and celery last longer and stay crispy in water? You can store them whole (as long as you cut the greens off carrots) or store already chopped in jars as a convenient way to snack, having the ability to reach in for a ready to eat carrot or celery stick!

If you’re tight on space in your fridge, containers are ideal for stacking. They can also help utilise space in the fridge so you can fit more items in without sacrificing and squishing your produce.

After you’ve washed your fruit and vegetables, place a sheet of paper towel in the container to soak up any excess moisture to ensure fresh produce such as berries & loose-leaf salad can stay fresher for longer.
