CUBICLE ORGANIZATION AND CLEANING TIPS

CUBICLE ORGANIZATION AND CLEANING TIPS

A 2014 Gallup research found that the typical full-time American employee puts in 47 hours per week. That comes out to be at work and in a cubicle for more than eight hours every day. If your desk is disorganized and crowded, that 40+ hour workweek will seem to last longer. Consult the professionals at Union City Carpet Cleaners for cubicle organization guidance and ideas if you want to make your home-away-from-home a space that is tidy and uncluttered.

Cube Cleaning: Start Fresh

To create the best cubicle organization project, start from the beginning. Take everything off the desk and discard anything extra as you tidy. Discard any leftover sweets and gum wrappers, paper fragments, and sticky notes containing messages that have been resolved for weeks. Keep in mind that a tidy cubicle is a healthier one, so throw away any used tissues and clean all hard surfaces.

Simple Cubicle Management

To begin arranging the space, set up work zones in your cubicle and assign a location for the objects you use frequently. If you spend the majority of your day using a computer, make it the center of attention in your cubicle. Replace the soiled mouse pad with a stylish new one and clean the keyboard and computer screen. Try these ideas to control the extra hubbub and mess:

  • Keep your regularly used items close to hand.
  • Keep a pen and pencil holder nearby so you won’t need to look for one during an important call.
  • Keep highlighters and markers in a separate container.
  • Invest in a split organizer tray that you can store in a desk drawer or on your desktop.
  • Stacking paper trays should be used, and the names should include words like “today,” “to read,” “to file,” etc.
  • minimizing personal belongings

Many employers allow employees to customize their desks or cubicles in some way. To preserve a neat and professional image, however, limit the amount of personal items in each cubicle. The area has a personal touch while still maintaining a professional atmosphere thanks to a few framed photos and a souvenir. Remember that there are still businesses operating outside of your office or cubicle. If you treat your coworkers and boss with respect, they will respect your professionalism.

Further Desk Space

In cubicle separators, cloth-covered walls are typical. T-pins may be used to create a DIY pegboard where items like scissors, a hole punch, tape, and more can be hung by simply sliding them into this material. Another option is to hang a corkboard for notes with T-pins. Velcro tabs work well on a cloth wall as well. If company policy allows for it and you have the room, add a shelf (or two) to get binders off the desk and neatly stored within reach. Using vertical hanging folders is another easy way to organize a desk and keep frequently used items close at hand.
