The 30 Best Storage Baskets for Organizing Every Room in Your Home
Storage baskets are a great tool for creating a functional and tidy home. Even if you’ve decluttered every closet and adopted good organizing habits, there are still a lot of things that you have to keep. Toiletries, bath towels, extra bedding, and other loose items can threaten the calm of a clean home if they don’t have a designated place.
“Organize first, basket last,” says Liz Dahmen, an organization consultant and founder of Make Space LLC. “Once you know what you want to contain, how much of it you have, and where you want it to live, then (and only then) should you start your basket search.”
To come up with this list of the best storage baskets, we researched dozens of baskets and bins, evaluating them based on style, functionality, and overall value. We also considered ways to save you as much space as possible by considering their ability to stack, nest, or collapse. For expert advice, we spoke to Dahmen, who says that storage baskets are the “final piece in the organizing puzzle.”

Rectangular and square-shaped baskets are great for hiding clutter on bookshelves and under tables. While there are many plain options on the market, we love these gorgeous baskets that are handwoven from natural seagrass. Plus, if you have a colorful shelf with lots of books and objects, the neutral tones help ground the overall look. And if your style is more minimalist, adding extra texture and pattern can bring some liveliness to an empty corner. These storage baskets come in a range of sizes, so you'll be able to stash away loose trinkets, papers, and magazines.
Material: Seagrass | Dimensions: Eight sizes, ranging from 14.5 x 10.5 x 8.5 inches to 18.9 x 24.4 inches
