Think outside the box: how a unique idea will help you tackle winter, and win

Think outside the box: how a unique idea will help you tackle winter, and win

Storms in the Midwest… snow off the Great Lakes. Seems like every weather report is chock full of wintry goodness. If this season shapes up to be anything like last, even folks down in Texas will get a little of the white stuff. It’s time once again for muddy sneakers and soppy snow boots, icy scarves and frozen mittens. And it’s time, once again, for those muddy, soppy, icy, frozen things to end up in your entryway, hallway, kitchen, or (dreadful horrors!) kids’ bedroom closets.

But what’s all this got to do with organizing and how could it possibly relate to office products? Well, before you pop on those snow shoes or lace up your kids’ boots, try tackling the winter mess with one unique office product that can go from mailroom to mudroom in a literal snap.

TierDrop modular stacking components... not just for paper anymore!

Ok, so we call them “mail sorters” but they’re incredibly versatile and the perfect size for everything from hiking boots to snow boots, high heeled shoes to running sneakers. You can easily use them to store your other winter apparel, too, including gloves, hats, scarves and sweaters. At 16-inches high, there’s plenty of room even for dad’s oversized boats… er, boots.

Here’s just one of the great things about TierDrop: compartments stack together with a snap, no tools required. That means you can take a break from tightening tiny screws with those annoying little hex wrenches. That also means it’s a breeze to expand your unit. Need more compartments? Just get an add-on kit and grow your storage space vertically. It’s just as easy to grow horizontally by stacking units side-by-side. Whether you start small or think big, you can create a unit that fits exactly what you need.

See, it really does work in a bedroom closet. Don't you wish yours was this neat?

Set these up in a garage, mudroom, closet, hallway, and yes, even a bedroom. Stack as many tiers as you need, or assign every family member their own stack so everyone always knows where to find their belongings.

From “eeew” to “aaah”

This winter instead of fighting with a snarl of laces and melting puddles of sludge, try sorting and storing mucky shoes in compartments that can stand up to even the most vigorous mud-slinging. They’re made from a durable polypropylene so clean-up and wipe-down is easy. And since they’re so easy to assemble and disassemble, you can easily drop the pieces into a sudsy bathtub for a good spring cleaning. Or if you’re feeling lazy, give the kids a sponge and hose these down in the driveway. No metal parts or screws means no rust.

Yikes! How many shoes do you have?? The good news is this unit will never ask and never complain when you buy another pair. It can grow as high as you need it.

Oh, and they’re ridiculously sturdy, too. Don’t let their ease of assembly fool you – these units aren’t going anywhere. They’re made from a unique patented design and the “ripple” walls are specifically designed to add strength and solidity.

Winter can be fun, but it can also be messy, so save yours from diminishing into a gritty pile of leftover slush with a little help from this modular organizing system. And share a few of your good organizing habits with your kids while you’re at it!
