If you're lucky enough to have a dedicated broom closet, make sure that the space is working overtime. Install individual broom and mop hooks or strips with multiple wire shelving holders to hang on the inside of the closet. If there's an outlet in the closet, install the Dust Buster there. If not, look for a convenient location near an outlet where it can be mounted on the wall.
How to Maximize Your Closet Space
Organize umbrellas and keep them out of the way: "Umbrella Hooks An umbrella should be easy to get to when you head out the door. These hooks prove to be a bit more nimble than an overcrowded stand, and don't take up coveted hall space. Mount broom hooks inside a closet door; hang high enough so umbrellas don't touch the floor and far enough apart so handles don't knock."
