How I did it: I used to have the most cluttered car in the world. It was like an alternate storage space & a black hole of all lost things-with wheels. Unfortunately, said car was a piece of crap and I had to Lemon Law it. When it came time to turn it in to the dealer for refund it took me 2 entire days to clean it up!!!
It was Summer and the hear was unbearable, since that day I told myself that I'd never, ever keep a car cluttered again!
I got another car a few days after and I make an active effort (it's not easy) to take OUT of the car any and all things that I go into in with.
SOOO, no more spare pair of shoes, umbrellas, receipts, shopping bags, coffee mugs, water bottles etc.. Everything comes out of the car (when I get out of the car)
Now I always have a neat car when I have to go places, always have room to put groceries and shopping and I am never embarrassed or having to make excuses when people get in the car.

Resources: A couple of years ago I got a glove box organizer thing to keep a pen, paper, maintenance records, insurance and registration information, it also has a little flashlight and an all in one tool thingie.

So no more spilling disaster when opening the glove box. I recommend getting one.
