Never stack cans, especially if they are not the same type.

While can stacking is something we all do, especially when we need to optimize the space, it is not one of the pantry organizing tips we got from our experts. Stacking is useful only when you have more of the same type of can, not when you have different sizes, as it can lead to dents in the cans or bruised body parts on your part if they fall when you accidentally hit one!

The best course of action is to only stack up to a maximum of two cans if they are taller or to invest in a can organizer. It may be a bit more expensive or space-consuming, but they will help you keep everything in place in a safer way, and you will be able to see everything more clearly than when stacked!

These can shelves are a lifesaver, and they are relatively inexpensive in the long run; they are sturdy, and they come in different sizes, so you can place them in different spots, even on open counters or on pantry shelving. This one here is our go-to one, which you can grab on sale for about $25!
