Where Is That Remote? Ways to Prevent Losing Your Remote

Misplacing our remote controls is something that has happened to all of us at least once. We spend hours searching down the sides of couch and chair cushions, moving furniture around, looking in the refrigerator, checking the kids’ toy boxes, and rummaging through other areas of the home.

Most of the time, we find it and make a promise to ourselves to not let it happen again. Yet it does happen again, especially if we have kids and pets. If you are tired of spending part of your evenings searching high and low for your remote, here are some great tips and tricks you can use without having to chain it to your coffee table!

Prevent Losing Your Remote

  • Purchase the CBL02 Security Cable attachment. https://www.replacementremotes.com/anderic/buy-universal-remote-control-security-cable-cbl02
  • Velcro the remote to a specific area when not needed. A great spot is underneath the end table or coffee table. This keeps it out of sight of little ones and your pets.
  • Secure it to a larger object. Put your DIY or arts and crafts skills to use and make a “box” or some other decorative item that keeps the remote securely in place.
  • Put it away in the same spot. When you are done watching TV, get into the habit of placing the remote on a shelf or next to the TV.
  • Keep it in a furniture storage If your couch or ottoman has a storage compartment, you can put it in this location whenever you do not need it.
