The 5 Best Bathroom Organization Products To Score From Dollar Tree This October
Flinging the windows open and diving into spring cleaning is utterly satisfying after a season indoors. But a good fall organization sesh makes even more sense, since lots of us will be stuck inside for the next few months. Mess leads to stress, and with the threat of cabin fever coming with shorter days, a disorganized bathroom can make all of these stressors even worse. Get your bathroom up to snuff for your winter confinement with a few cheap organizational staples from Dollar Tree.
Nobody ever says, "I have too much storage in my bathroom." But, sometimes even ample spaces could be put to better use with a few handy tools. Shell out anywhere from $1.25 to $6 a piece for a few Dollar Tree products that corral clutter, making supplies easier to find and visual mess less overwhelming. The discount store has plenty of attractive containers and tools to take organization vertical. Some tuck neatly into cabinets while others are worth showing off. Add one or more of these products to your washrooms to make organizing bathroom essentials a breeze for a very low price.
Over the door organizers
The back of a bathroom door is prime real estate for organization. If wall space is lacking, slip a set of Essentials Over-the-door Hooks over the top of the door for suspending towels, robes, and other hangable musts. The iron frame holds four hooks, is durable, and gets high consumer ratings. However, if you have more to store and less room to do so, hanging organizers might be a good addition. The Closet Essentials Hanging Travel Bag is ready to dangle from one of those hooks. Clear pockets with zip closures make its contents easy to see while holding them securely in place.
Every bathroom needs a spot to dry damp towels, but if real estate is extremely limited, enlist a Closet Essentials 8-Pocket Shoe Organizer to fill the space. See beyond shoes for this marvel of vertical storage. The pockets can hold washcloths and hand towels, toiletries, and hair styling tools as brilliantly as they contain sneakers and heels.
Stackable containers
Plastic bins that click together into convenient shelving is ideal for the shelf-less cabinet area under the sink that has so much potential. Dollar Tree's Stackable Containers are made of sturdy plastic and have perforated sides and one open side with a raised edge to hold contents in place. Each container has side handles that double as supports for stacking additional containers.
A duo of these baskets under a sink is a foolproof way to keep your bathroom clutter-free. They measure 17 inches long by 14 inches wide. Each container is 10 inches tall, but stacked ones lose an inch or so of height when the base clicks into the lower one's handles. Designate each container for a different purpose or family member, and your harried morning search for the hair gel will be a thing of the past.
No room under the sink? The white containers are unobtrusive enough to slide into a corner of the bathroom to make reaching for rolls of toilet paper, clean towels, or bath time toys convenient.
Six-cube storage rack
Two separate open shelf structures made of metal and cloth make up the 6-Cube Storage Rack, and you can connect them into a large unit or separate them for use in two different spots. If you have at least a 12-inch by 36-inch spot in your bathroom, this rack could solve all of your bathroom storage conundrums.
Each of the six cube storage areas has open sides and a fabric base. The base may not be stable enough for individual small items to stand vertically, but the structure holds two trios of storage baskets as if it were designed to (and it probably was). Each cube is 12 inches by 12 inches and is ready-made for sliding in Dollar Tree's square Closet Essentials Collapsible Storage Containers, colorful plastic bins, or straw baskets. Storage bin cubes fit perfectly like little drawers in each segment for tidy storage, or you can turn cubes on their sides to hold stacks or rolls of essentials in place.
Woven straw baskets
With rustic good looks that verge on high-end dupes, Dollar Tree's selection of circular Birch and Vine Weaving Straw Baskets are almost too pretty not to display. The baskets come in a few sizes and a few more colors. With sides in neutral-tones and unpainted woven grass, the baskets look great set out on any open surface as countertop catch-alls (especially the 5.8 inch diameter model that nestles into smaller spaces) or specially-designated niches for things like washcloths, rolls of toilet paper, and hair products. These would also work great in a guest bathroom, holding travel bathroom essentials for visitors in style.
Although cube-shaped storage is a smarter use of space for the 6-cube storage rack (see above), an arrangement of 11.8-inch Woven Straw Baskets will fit nicely and give your bathroom a spa-like feel. With edging in white, gray, or black, a grouping of these baskets look polished in a single color or with one or more in each of the hues.
Clear vanity organizer
Sometimes it's just more convenient to keep things on the counter, but doing it in a sleek and subtle way pairs convenience with storage that's easy on the eye. The Home Collection 3-Sectioned Clear Plastic Vanity Organizers have a 5.5 inch-by-3 inch base and measure in at a bit over 4 inches high. The three compartments are a top-notch solution for keeping toothbrushes, makeup brushes, hair ties, and more at the ready.
There's no rule that the organizer has to sit out for all to see, either. Eliminate countertop clutter by setting it up somewhere out of sight. The container will be easy to grab on a tray with handles, from inside a storage basket, from under the sink, or from a closet shelf. Plus, at $1.50 each, purchasing a set of them won't break the bank. Reserve one per family member, or keep them to yourself!
How we chose which Dollar Tree products to include
Dollar Tree is a goldmine for cheap organizational gadgets, and for this article, several criteria went into this top selection of handy deals. To winnow down the many options for bathroom storage from Dollar Tree, we primarily considered customer reviews from the store website and versatility of each product. On the practicality end, we honed in on pieces that take advantage of underused space, that provide discreet storage, or that appear much higher-end than their budget origins.
Another contributing factor is the products' frequent mentions on platforms like YouTube and TikTok. Since some specific trending organizational tools aren't always available at Dollar Tree, the suggested items are among ones that are advertised on the store website at the time of writing.
