How tidy are your tack/store/feed rooms?

AS title, I like to be tidy but am not the tidiest (try to make sense of that!) I find myself spending more time on the horses themselves rather than the equipment, yet hate it when it gets out of hand!!
I HAD to tidy up the (work) tack room yesterday as it was turning into a huge dumping ground, thus forfeiting a ride. (not enough hours in the day and all).

I hate spilt food on the floor, yet all our feed bags are on pallets and it is only when feed is REALLY low can I do a complete sweep out. (I'm not responsible for the majority of spillage!?!)

My own store (tack at home) I'm really struggling with as I share it with a non tidy person who moans when I tidy it!! grrrr, At work, I've got all the leather tack and all the rugs, grooming kits and veterinary stuff etc. suitable for a TB stud farm with polo ponies! = A LOT!
So, come on, how ''tidy'' are you?
 
Our tack shed is a small garden shed from argos!! everything is in big storage boxes, on hooks and rails, or chucked on the floor at the back!!! either that or it's in the car or the house... ;)
 
analy tidy on the yard/feed room/barn etc. not so with the house!! however it takes as long to dump something as it does to hang it up in the right place. i hate haveing to look for things when they are not in their place! always sweep up feed as cant stand mice and rats!
 
a place for everything and everything in it's place, I cannot abide an untidy tack room/store, I share with a rather messy friend but rather than worry about it, I just tidy up behind her and keep it all nice and neat.
 
Well my side is tidy! I can't stand mess and need organisation! Everything is in it's rightful place :D

It gradually gets messier as you move around the room, my friends stuff at the other side looks like a bomb has gone off!

I usually take charge of tidying/sweeping the feed room. It helps keeps mice at bay.

Does annoy me sometimes though that I'm usually the only one to bother...don't get me started on the yard sweeping! :rolleyes:
 
Tidy, apart from the cats!

My tackroom and stables are spotless, you could eat your dinner off the floor. My OH complains it is cleaner than our house :D
 
I am NOT tidy at all at home, but like things to be neat and organised at the yard.

We are lucky there, our YO likes stuff nice and tidy too so if anything gets a bit too messy we tidy it up :D

We have a big metal container for all the livery's stuff and I like mine all neat and compact that way no one trips over it and hurts themselves or my stuff ha ha! :D
 
Mine is a complete tip, untidy drawers full of lotions and potions and a mountain of rugs as high as most houses :) Its always worse at this time of year because I am so busy at work I don't have time to get it back under control! I don't even like going in there so I ve moved my regular tack into the lorry :)

I will be having one massive spring clean at the end of this month when I have a few days off and then it will be pristine (for a few days anyway :D )
