How To Organise A Small Utility Room With Washtower’s Cabinets

Published on: 28/11/2023 Author: Babette

A small utility room can be a challenging space to organise efficiently. This is especially the case when there is a need to accommodate essential appliances like a washing machine and dryer.

However, with careful planning and the right storage solutions, you can transform a small laundry area into a highly functional and organised space.

The key to getting the design of a small utility room right is your choice of washing machine cabinet. The good news is that Washtower’s washing machine and dryer cabinets offer a range of options, meaning there is a solution to suit even the most limited of spaces.

Let’s take a look at our laundry room cupboards to create a small yet mighty space within your utility room.

Utilise Vertical Space

In a small laundry room, floor space is often in short supply. That’s why it’s essential to maximise all available wall space. In particular, machines and tumble dryers can be stacked to make excellent use of otherwise redundant wall space.

One example of a laundry solution for a small utility room is Washtower’s Slimline 3.1. This unit provides extra storage for items like cleaning supplies, detergent, and even your vacuum cleaner.

Storage For Ironing Board And Laundry Baskets

Laundry room cupboards aren’t just for housing your appliances. Instead, they can have clever built-in solutions to help make the laundry process more far more enjoyable.

To keep your space organised, we recommend purchasing a washing machine cabinet that has a storage solution for your ironing board, laundry baskets and other cleaning products.

Washtower’s Cupboard wall 1.1 includes a built-in laundry basket compartment. This feature allows you to store dirty laundry out of sight and eliminates the need for additional storage containers in the room.

Notice that the design has an integrated sleek area to the side which can be used as an ironing board cabinet. This means even with a small utility room you can still store everything you need to do your laundry in one place.

Also, the design of modern slimline vacuum cleaners means you could also use this cupboard to store a vacuum cleaner. Therefore, our Cupboard Wall 1.1 offers flexibility as a cabinet for an ironing board, vacuum cleaner or any similar household tools and accessories.

Choosing The Right Colour of Your Washing Machine Cabinets

Once you’ve decided on your laundry storage system it’s time to consider colour options.

It’s a popular choice to opt for a white washing machine cabinet to create a bright and clean look. Another advantage of a white washing machine cupboard is that it gives you a blank canvas to work from, regardless of the decor used throughout the rest of the room.

Alternatively, our black oak washing machine cabinet offers a bold and modern feel.

Either colour option not only enhances the aesthetics of the room but also provides valuable storage space.

Can’t decide? All of our utility room cabinets are available in both black and white colour options.

Here are examples of each colour option:

Washing machine cabinet white: Original 2.3 (white)
Washing machine cabinet black: Original 2.3 (black)

Good to know: On each product listing you can toggle between a white washing machine cabinet and a black washing machine cabinet in a single click.

Top Tips For Small Laundry Rooms

Organising a small utility room can be a rewarding project that maximises both space and efficiency.

Proper insulation will reduce noise when your appliances are in use. It’s also essential to consider additional storage for your ironing board and laundry baskets to utilise vertical space effectively.

Colour-wise, white wall cabinets for the laundry room are a traditional option. However, whether considering options for white or black washing machine cabinets, it’s important to get the configuration right first.

With these tips and the right products, your small utility room can become a well-organised and efficient hub for all your laundry needs.
