Organizing robotics room

Grab a bunch of bins, similar to the KOP bins in size. Label each bin for what it's supposed to contain. Go into the closet, and as you haul items out put them in the right bin. Put the bins back into the closet. Now the search party only has to find the right bin and dig through that, which is much less intimidating.

Oh, and do the same with tools and a toolbox drawers. For some reason, it helps to not mix tools and robot parts in storage.

Absolutely this.

The trick becomes making sure that every box is still accessible to put things back in when you're done with them. That was the problem my team had and people would get lazy and just throw stuff on top of the boxes rather than digging out the box the item belonged in.
