Use the kitchen base, the space under the sink or hang on the walls of the basket - suggest where you can still store vegetables and fruits.
Often the refrigerator in the kitchen is not so big as I would like, and not all. If you are a lot and often cook, then there are no places for storage of vegetables and fruits. Also, many have the need to store potato reserves, onions, carrots and other root crops. We tell in the article where to find an extra room for storing vegetables and fruits.
1 Store in storeroom
If you have a storage room in the apartment, it is not suitable for storing vegetables and fruits. Place them on the bottom shelves - there the air is colder, and besides, it will be easier to get the right products. Pay attention to the commodity neighborhood, relapse or disappoint household chemicals and products at different ends.
2 fold in retractable boxes
For storage of vegetables and fruit reserves, one of the drawers in the kitchen can be selected. It is important to organize storage using organizers or separators, to use for each type of products a separate container with ventilation holes. If the drawer is deep - organize several storage levels.
3 Place under the sink
It is possible to store vegetables and fruits under the sink, although it is not the most reliable way due to possible humidity or leaks. But in a small apartment sometimes there is no choice.
If the wardrobe under the sink is wide enough, it makes sense to try to put closed baskets for vegetables and fruits. To make it easier to get them, use the retractable mechanism.
4 Use kitchen base
An additional storage place in the kitchen can be organized if equipped with retractable boxes in the kitchen base. Fold there stocks of vegetables and fruits. Do not forget about ventilation so that the fruits do not rot. Do the holes in the boxes themselves or store reserves in mesh baskets at a short distance from each other.
5 put a shelf or bedside table
If the refrigerator, and all the cabinets are busy, and in the basement it is impossible to make boxes, put a separate bedside table or a feeding machine for vegetables and fruits. Divide the vegetables and fruits at different levels of the shelf. And do not forget about the ventilation holes.
6 Hang on the wall of the basket
If storage space is not enough in the refrigerator, nor in the kitchen, then the yield can be hinged baskets. Large reserves in them will not fit, but some of the vegetables and fruits will fit. You can arrange them both in the kitchen and in other parts of the apartment, where they will not interfere.
7 Buy special thermoshkaf
If the stocks of fruits are large, it makes sense to think about the acquisition of a special thermoshkaf. Its feature is that it allows you to maintain the desired temperature inside regardless of the outer. Even if you put it on a balcony in winter with minus twenty, the temperature inside it will remain the same. Most often it is used on an unheated balcony, but you can put the thermoshkaf to any free place of the apartment.
8 Design the refrigerator under the window
In some layouts in the kitchen under the window there is a niche that can be used as a refrigerator in winter. If you do not have a battery under the window, you can design such a system yourself. In minus temperatures to store there are not only vegetables and fruits, but also other products that do not fit in the refrigerator. With very strong frosts, make sure that the fruits do not froze.
