Can I use a commercial utility cart for my home organization needs?

Think Outside of the Cart

Utility carts are hugely popular in the food service industry, hotels and restaurants, but it could be that one of these industrial designs is right for your organizational need. Clearly if you are operating a home based business that relates to food, say custom made chocolates, cookies or other goods, you are going to need some well designed storage for your kitchen or secondary kitchen. Rather than buying a cart or storage unit developed for home use, you should really consider buying commercial grade. Perhaps you are a mechanic or electronics hobbyist - the same applies - a sturdy utility cart made of commercial grade materials will most likely be stronger and last longer for whatever application you have.

   
I don't have room for an office, can I use a storage cart?

The Rolling Drawer Cart: Office Supplies or Hobby Supplies

Not everyone can dedicate an entire room to office space. In fact, more and more people are keeping electronic records, automating bill payment and shying away from paper records altogether. If you don't have huge office needs, or even if you just need a unique storage solution for a hobby like knitting, painting, drawing or even origami, you may want to think about a storage cart. If you have kids or pets, a rolling drawer cart will be just the ticket. You'll need the drawers to protect your paperwork or supplies from curious little fingers and paws, and the wheels will allow you to move your "office" or "hobby" to whichever room you need, be it bedroom, playroom or living room. Security and flexibility will be the key to maintaining your home organization and sanity!

   
How can utility cart improve my home organization?

Utility Carts 101

Utility carts can move all around your house with you and can add much needed organization to your home without taking up a lot of room. Utility carts are ideal for hobbies and activities that you don't do every day. They can hold all of your supplies in one place and you can move the cart from kitchen to play room to garage to basement depending on your needs at the time. You may only think about utility carts for space saving in a small space, but in reality, having a large home doesn't mean you don't need effective home organization.

   
How to protect your child(and your purse) in a store ?

Shopping Safety for children

Do you use a carriage for all of your shopping? Do you put your purse in the front of the carriage what was designed to hold a child? I do…and I thought everyone did what I did—but last week I was shopping with a friend who saw what I did and then told me—that is a very good idea—so since she didn't know –maybe you don't either and I want to share it with you.

When you are using a carriage use the child safety straps in the front for your purse straps. Buckle the straps through your purse straps and this will help your purse to be a little safer in the store.

If someone does try to take your purse, they will have a harder time trying to run with your purse since they will have to run with the carriage or it will take the criminal time to UN hinge the purse from its protective straps. It will give you more time to turn around, see what is happening and stop the bad person stealing what doesn't belong to them.
