There’s shelf paper that comes on a roll sold in groceries in the pesach section.

Does it stick or you use Scotch tape?

Scotch tape. I wouldn’t want one to stick just for 1 week.

I use sticky.
I like my shelves lined all year round anyways.
(I lined them when I moved into my house. My mother also always kept her shelves lined)

This year I bought the thick foam stuff. I'm hoping to put it away and reuse for next year.

Reynolds freezer paper. 15 inches wide, plastic-laminated. I keep it in place all year and replace the following Pesach. If I didn’t have this, I’d cut up brown paper grocery bags.

I have washable liners that I use all year. So for pesach, after washing shelves and the liners, I put the liners back and then cut a refrigerator liner to place on top. Makes my life easier. Because it takes 2 seconds.

I used contact paper when I did it.

Since then I got smarter and bought cheap plastic shelves and drawers. Saves an insane amount of time and energy.

I think lining shelves is standard. You don’t want to put pesach stuff were chametz stuff was. Like we cover tables, counters.
But it could also be a chumrah or minhag.
I really don’t know.

It's a Chumrah (because covering counters and tables is different, because we tend to put hot things there, but no one puts hot chometz into their cabinets and drawers.) But it's a pretty widely accepted Chumrah.

Oy, I really didn't know this. I've been making pesach for years..... I'll ask DH to ask his Rav. Of course I line tables, counters, refrigerator, freezer. I didn't know cabinets fall into the same category.

Only cabinet where you put your Pesach goods and Pesach dishes.

I put my pesach stuff in cabinets that I don't keep real chametz in.
My parents, in laws, grandparents.... all have pesach kitchens, I guess I didn't know because I didn't see it at home.

NO!!!!
A cleaned surface doesn't need to be covered if hot chametz hasn't been on it. When's the last time you put hot chametz on your shelves?

Reminds me of a friend who never made Pesach, they go to hotels... Her son got married, and...saw his in-laws kitchen all plastered up in foil and coverings, he'd never seen anything like it. He thought someone went crazy....

But really it's a chumrah. Asking your Rav is a good idea.

It’s a chumra ask your LOR but my rav holds I don’t have to so long as the space is cleaned out throughly and sprayed.

If it something you are okay with then by all means continue to do it but it added a tremendous amount of unnecessary stress to my already hectic pesach prep so I let it go.

It was my own personal yitzias mitzrayim and I’ve never looked back
