Laundry Shute

These are the stairs to the basement (which is 90% finished; there is no ceiling...).  Our washer/dryer live down there; and consequently, our stairs have turned into a make-shift laundry shute:

Look closely and you'll see that I've thrown clothing, towels, boxes, buckets, and wrapping paper.  It is creeping half-up the stairs.  Not so organized or pretty... need to work on this.
