10 Things Professional Organizers Always Buy at Costco

Stackable bins are an excellent space-saving solution all throughout the house. Sarah Anthony, founder of Organize & Design, uses these in the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, playroom, office and beyond. “They’re stylish, versatile and functional,” she says.

Sizable storage bins like these are useful for stashing away holiday decorations, off-season clothing and so much more. Kristina Pinkerton, founder of Organizing Huntsville, finds them “perfect for keeping items organized and easy to access while protecting them from dust and moisture.” Their stackable setup will help you maximize precious garage, basement or closet space.

Amanda Bernal, founder of Peace by Piece Home Services, is also a fan of this storage set: “Not only do these black and yellow bins boast quality and versatility, but the price point is unbeatable.”

If you prefer transparent storage bins, Kenika Williams recommends this six-pack. “The grooves on the lids also make stacking easier to optimize storage space,” says the founder of Tidied by K.

Corral bins, boxes and more on this utilitarian wire shelf that’s built to do some heavy lifting (each individual shelf can accommodate up to 350 lbs!). “This versatile storage piece can be used in garages, storage closets, sheds, attics, basements and more,” Kersh says. Plus, she adds, the shelves are height-adjustable, making it easy to customize for your needs.

Need something even more heavy duty? This six-tier unit can accommodate 1,000 lbs. per shelf and it’s on wheels, making it easy to move around a space as needed. Raychel Klein, founder of RayBayBay, often uses these in garages and basements. “They’re great for overstock and bulk items, as well as sports gear, tools and outdoor supplies,” she says.

Anna Napier has come to rely on the OXO brand often and appreciates this versatile set of storage containers. “The variety of sizes in the Costco pack are perfect for everyday use leaving none to waste—which is a common issue we find with many other assorted packs of storage pieces,” says the founder of In | Line Organizing.

Whether you’re looking to store items or just transport them from one space to another, don’t underestimate the power of these collapsible crates. Klein loves their durability.

Bernal often goes through six sizable trash bags per organizing session. “As we work with clients to optimize their homes, such a high volume of superfluous items are leaving and large, durable bags are indispensable,”she says.

Amy Delaplain and Cynthia Lindsey, co-founders of Its Arranged, swear by this room divider when working on spaces like playrooms, children’s rooms and closets. “Each of the eight bins offers dedicated space for different categories, making it easier to keep items organized and prevent clutter from accumulating,” Delaplain says. Better yet, she adds, the low height (the shelf can be positioned vertically or horizontally) makes it a breeze for young ones to clean up after themselves on a day-to-day basis.
