Our Favorite Organizing Products

These are the products we recommend most often, because they've worked well for many families. They're recommendations, not requirements.

Feel free to buy as much or as little as you'd like, or look for similar items elsewhere (Walmart and HomeGoods are good places to start). We're always happy to work with what you already have.

Closets, hangers and shoes

I recommend making sure all your hangers are the same color. It's a small change, and it makes a big difference in how your closet feels.

Bathrooms and jewelry

Small containers make the biggest difference in drawers and under sinks.

Labels

Labels are what make a system stick. When everyone knows where things go, things get put back.

Storage rooms, garages and laundry

Totes are for things you don't need often: memorabilia, clothes in between sizes, seasonal and specialty items. You can also find them at Walmart.

  • Sterilite clear storage totes, 58 quart, 6 pack

    This size works great for unused clothing, like kids' in-between sizes, or bedding at the top of a closet.

  • Sterilite clear storage totes, 20 quart, 6 pack

    Great for smaller things like photos, memory books and out-of-season sports gear. They stack well on the larger totes.

  • Sterilite underbed totes, 41 quart, 6 pack

    Great underbed storage. I often store kids' memorabilia, school projects, awards and photos under their beds in their own memory box.

  • 64-quart storage totes

    It's often helpful to have two sizes of totes for storage rooms, a large and a small. Check your local Walmart for similar sizes too.

  • 2-bushel laundry basket

    Keep one where each person undresses, then carry it to the laundry when it's full. I prefer the 2-bushel size, which holds about one load.

Baskets, bins and cubes

Colors are only suggestions, so choose what fits your style. If you buy something different, look for similar dimensions.
