Congrats to Yvonne (ypratt@…)
I will email you shortly!
It’s probably not earth shattering news that my car is always very organized! Ever since I turned 16, I have been diligent about keeping my car {and my trunk} clean, organized, and decluttered.
And I love fun organizing products — so I was beyond thrilled when I received these car organizing goodies from Clever Container. Within about 15 minutes, I had them in my car, packed full of goodies! Dave just laughed when I brought him all the way out to the garage to show him how the organizers looked in my car — apparently he doesn’t share my giddy enthusiasm for new organizing products 🙂
I have the Swing Away Car Organizer on the back of the passenger seat. The many different pockets are full of all the essentials I could need while traveling in my car. And the best part about it is that it can “swing” around to the front so I can easily access everything while I’m in the drivers seat — and obviously anyone in the back seat has full access as well.
Anyone with kids {or lots of stuff} MUST have the Cargo Pocket Organizer! I really hate when I open the truck and everything comes falling out, so I’m loving the five generous pockets to corral all that “stuff” that always seems to pile up in the trunk!
I love the GripIt Sun Visor organizer and am using it to organize the small items that used to be in my glove compartment or my middle console. It’s so convenient to have these items so readily available… and they are much easier to access while driving because I don’t need to look down to find them.

I still have Christmas presents that relatives gave the kids that they don’t want in the back of the van. I can’t return them, but I’m not sure what to do with them – they’re expensive so I will probably sell in our spring garage sale.

My messy spot is in the trunk. I keep reusable shopping bags back there and they start to take over if I don’t watch it.
Joy A says
I “like” you on Facebook. The craziest item of clutter at this time is the clothes that we have been meaning to return to my sons friend for over a month. Not so crazy, I guess. ๐

My van is a hot mess. Always. Even when I have just cleaned it out, about two seconds later it’s like I haven’t touched it in months. Probably the craziest piece of clutter right now would be the kites in my back well – it’s OH in the winter – no use for these, but I leave them for that just in case moment I keep hoping will pop up. Thanks for the contest! ๐
Lisa says
Karen-
I’m in OH too! With this warm winter Kites don’t sound that crazy!

Being that I have a 2 and a 4 year old we always have books all over the car. Prior to kids our cars were spotless, nothing out of place.

My 3 year old’s purse is in the car right now. Not sure how it got there!
veritysa says
With baby #3 on the way, we actually bought a minivan this weekend so as of right now there is only ONE piece of clutter in there right now!
A couple hours ago when I was unloading groceries I missed an Oriental Ramen package of noodles. (I saw it when I came back to get the one year old, but it was so cold that I didn’t want to set her down and crawl after it!!) ๐
Jackie says
I joke that my van is a traveling trash can. With 3 kids, it is hard to keep clean. Right now, my clutter consists of lots of folders from students (I teach a class), along with assorted toys, soda cans, water bottles and who knows what else!
Lisa says
Jackie those folders woul dfit perfectly in a swing away!

The wierdest clutter in my car is probably a thermometer. You never know when you will need it ๐

I wanted to check out the catalog because my pantry needs help. The site wouldn’t even let me browse without a consultant id number. Very frustrating! I used to be in direct sales so I know the importance of making sure that the right consultant gets credit for the sale. However, I’ve never come across a site that will not even let you browse! Crazy way to get new customers!

The craziest clutter in my car right now (besides a lot of other things) is a sample packet from Paula’s Choice that I told my sister-in-law I would give her a while ago. It fell from my dashboard holder thing and landed between the seat and the console and I can’t get it out. I need to get some tongs or something and fish it out. I would really love to win this because I really, really need to organize my car so I can secure the stuff and it won’t fly around so much!
Brynn says
Craziest clutter is magazines all over the back seat that I keep meaning to bring to work to share! (I am a bit of a magazine Junkie!)

LisaL says
Its hard to pick one certain crazy item. In a mini van, you never really know what’s lurking in the far back seat. My 11yo sits back there and I have found dried up food, a sock, wet clothes from the pool, etc.
Joy says
I liked you on facebook!
Holly F. says
I like you AND Organize 365 on facebook. They look like a great resource. Thanks for introducing them.

The craziest piece of clutter right now in my car is a box of toys from approx the 1940s that I have in preparation for an estate sale at my grandmother’s house.
