Storage Bins — one of my favorite topics when it comes to organizing. Why? Because there is ONE, yes one, answer when it comes to storage bins — Iris Weathertight Totes.
Gone are the days of buying red and green bins at Christmas, and orange and black bins during Halloween. We are aiming for cohesiveness, consistency – all the same color and ideally all the same size.
Weathertight totes have it all —
- Super strong latches (not just two, think four or six)
- Air and watertight seal
- Stackable
- Made of quality ultra-clear polypropylene
- Multiple sizes, ranging from 6.5 qt to 103 qt (our go-to is the 74 qt)
- Available in clear or black
As always, measure twice, buy once. Do not purchase blindly – measure the width, height and depth of your shelves first and then invest in the storage bins of your dreams.
Pro Tip: Buy more bins than what you currently need. When organizing any area of the home, think long-term. While you will realistically discard some items over time, it is more likely you will accumulate more than you discard. Give yourself room to grow into.
If you’re looking specifically for holiday storage (think wreaths and Christmas trees), check out our Holiday Storage Product Roundup.
That’s a wrap!
As always, reach out with any questions via @modernvilla__ or schedule a consult here.
Cheers!
