About Home Storage Containers & Bins

Maintaining order in your home is essential for a more stress-free and harmonious living environment. At The Container Store, we understand the significance of home organization and offer a wide range of storage solutions to transform your space into a sanctuary of order and tranquility.

Why is home organization important?

A clutter-free home is not just visually appealing, it also contributes to mental well-being and productivity. Imagine walking into a space where everything has its place—a serene oasis that promotes relaxation and focus. Home organization is the key to unlocking the full potential of your living spaces.

Getting Started with Storage Containers & Bins

At The Container Store, we have a wide range of storage solutions that maximize your space and coordinate with your home decor, including:

• Storage Bins - Whether you go with clear plastic bins, decorative storage baskets (many of which are made from recycled or renewable materials), or lidded storage boxes, these are among the most versatile items in your organization arsenal. From the bathroom to the playroom, they can go anywhere and do anything.
• Drawers - Stackable modular drawers and freestanding drawer units are useful all over your home, from the kitchen to the garage.
• Plastic Storage Totes- Plastic totes are a must for any home. Use sturdy, stackable plastic containers with lids to stash seasonal decorations, clothing, and extra quilts in your garage or attic.
• Underbed Storage Containers - The space under your bed is often overlooked, but it’s valuable home storage real estate. We offer underbed bags, boxes, and drawers designed to make the most of it.
• Shelving- A sturdy wooden bookshelf or all-purpose stainless steel wire shelving unit can have a myriad of storage uses, from paperbacks to pots and pans. The same goes for floating shelves; adding them to a bathroom or kitchen is a great way to maximize space.
• Hooks - Wall-mounted hook racks make getting out the door a breeze. When installed in your entryway or mudroom, they provide easy access to backpacks, purses, and coats.

Discover the secrets to a well-organized home with these expert tips:

• Declutter Strategically: Assess each room and identify items that no longer serve a purpose. Donate or discard them to create room for what truly matters. Accessibility and functionality are key!
• Maximize Storage Space: Utilize vertical space with stacking shelves and storage bins. Invest in multi-functional furniture to optimize space in smaller rooms. Find neglected areas and use them for storage, such as the back of a door or the space under your sofa.
• Create Zones: Group similar items together and designate specific areas for different activities. This not only enhances organization but also creates a more efficient living space.
• Label Everything: Clearly label storage boxes, drawers, and shelves to streamline the process of finding and storing items.

Other FAQs:

What size storage bin do I need?

Before you purchase a storage solution, take at least a rough measurement of the available space and the contents you need to store. That way, you can ensure you select the correct solution the first time!

What type of material do I choose?

Different construction materials offer different advantages. For instance, clear plastic bins allow you to view what’s inside easily. But if you choose a bin made from a different material—such as wood or water hyacinth—you may be able to coordinate it with your home decor. (For opaque containers, you can add a label to make the contents instantly identifiable.)

What kind of delivery options does The Container Store have?

You can buy online and pick up in-store to save on shipping costs. You can also have items delivered to your home via standard shipping or specialized local delivery where you can schedule specific delivery times.
