Types of file cabinets

Vertical file cabinets
Vertical file cabinets are the most common type of file cabinets used. Vertical cabinets take up less floor space and store the most paper.
Lateral file cabinets
Lateral file cabinets are best used when floor space is not
a concern. These cabinets are much wider than vertical and ideal when filing
documents of greater width. Lateral cabinets are not deep, and generally used in
businesses to store files ranging in width.

Use separate file cabinets for personal and business files. All files should be divided up, labeled and kept organized. Files can be sorted and stored alphabetically, numerically, color coded, by date, by subject, geographically, or by using your own system. Keep current files reachable and inactive files stored away in basements, garages or attics.

Having file cabinets will ensure that one will have an easier time in organizing one's files. You wouldn't want to lose track of an important document when you need it the most and spend hours searching for it. Aside from having these wonderful file cabinets, having your physical documents converted into digital files will make it easier to sort them out.
