I have one dirty washing hamper in the laundry as well as a nappy bucket. Hamper is full after two days, but I like everything in one place so having several hampers would annoy me!
Sleeping bags are out in DH's shed and spare bedding is in the laundry cupboard.
I also have a massive kitchen bench that attracts a multitude of things! Drives me crazy, if the bench is messy I can't handle it. I have a wire basket that sits on the bench and it all goes in there. Papers, tools, postcards etc etc. Then when it's full I go through it and put everything in it's place, or if it's DH's I give it to him to deal with. Works for us as the bench can become tidy in a minute!
Bills get opened straight away and put into a different basket on the computer desk. I have a calendar just for bills and expenses that I note the bill onto. It sits in the basket until it's paid, then I'll cross it off the calendar and shred the bill. They used to also go into the bottomless kitchen bench basket...but they don't always get paid that way!
Lunchboxes all go into the plastics cupboard, this generally spends most of the day on my kitchen floor thanks to DS.
Our spare room is a giant black hole of clutter, I'm yet to find a solution to it though Better think of something before this bub comes along!
