Car Cleaning Tips

After all the clutter is out of Lynne and T.J.'s car, Peter helps them put back only what really needs to be there. First, he adds an envelope that clips to driver's visor to keep receipts and important papers in place. And, to keep the trunk from spilling over, he puts down plastic bins especially for groceries and the kids' sporting goods.

Peter says keeping a car clean is less about organization and more about establishing routines. "When you fill your car with gas, check the trash at the same time. Get the trash out of your car," he says. "When you get home, get the kids to get the stuff out of the car straightaway."
