I looks like just some simple organization would go a long ways. Its not that you have too much stuff, you just need to position all of the items in an efficient manor. Pantry looks quite large compared to most homes.

I agree with Charles. It just take a little organization. Clean it out first getting rid of anything that has expired. Next, start grouping your items. For example in my pantry I have all cereals grouped together, soups, pastas, paper products and so on. It’s not that hard and you will probably find that you have more room than you ever thought. Once you get it organized it will be easy to keep it that way. ,

Empty the entire space to start. I use those round lazy susans to store cans on wire shelves, they really help. Get some plastic shoe boxes or drawer organizers for smaller packets, mixes and jars, and to keep like things together, they really help to keep things from falling through the wire or sliding off the shelves. Make a food side and a household item side, and get rid of anything you don't need.

My pantry is a mess too, I am more of a visual person, I need to see everything just by standing at pantry door, if I don't it doesn't exist. I get overwhelmed just thinking of organizing it

There are a lot of websites with helpful advice on how to organzie. From what I can see in your panty you need large containers and like items should be placed together and each shelf always used in the same way. For the time it will take to organize, you will be amazed at the time saved in the long run. The cart in your kitchen should only have baskets, which will hide smaller items vs these large items which look messy (place in pantry). For the items on your counter - if you use these all the time, clear out a cupboard of things you don't use as frequently and store them in your panty. Store your counter items in that cupboard for easy access.
