Five ways to keep a small desk organized

A compact desk works best when everything has a place. These small changes help you keep the surface clear without adding clutter.

1. Use the space under your screen

A monitor stand with drawers or shelves turns the space under your screen into storage for notebooks, chargers and small items.

2. Keep daily items within reach

Place what you use every day in front of you or to the side, and move occasional items into drawers.

3. Route your cables

Bundle cables along the back edge of the desk and leave enough slack for anything that moves or adjusts.

4. Measure before you add an organizer

Check the free depth on your desk first. An organizer that is too deep pushes your keyboard towards the edge.

5. Reset the surface at the end of the day

A few minutes of tidying before you finish makes it easier to start the next day.
