8 Costco Finds That Are Great For Shoe Storage And Organization

Shoes are a part of daily dress that don't quite play by the rules of other wardrobe essentials. While shirts, pants, dresses, and coats are hung up in the closet and socks, undergarments, and house clothes are folded away into drawers, shoes require their own kind of storage. For starters, they often are dirty — a result of walking around public places and being in constant contact with sweaty feet. They are often most useful when they are easy to grab as you run out the door. If you're tired of rifling through a pile of shoes for the pair you need, or just want a more orderly storage or drop zone to manage your footwear inventory, heading to Costco could yield some good results.

While you might think of Costco as a place to stock up on household essentials, the warehouse wholesale store is also a fan favorite for storage solutions. Individuals who want compact shoe storage that fits in their closet can find it in the TRINITY 4-tier shoe rack with console top. Likewise, people who prefer a storage bench where they can get their shoes on and off might be interested in the TRINITY shoe bench with boot storage. For shoe lovers who want to easily see what they have available while also keeping their favorite pairs filed away, can check out the stackable shoebox and organizer. Whether you're working with a large or small shoe collection, Costco's offerings can help you better manage it.

The TRINITY shoe bench with boot storage ($59.99) is a versatile and highly-rated option to keep your regularly used pairs of shoes easily accessible. In addition to providing multiple slots to store sneakers, flats, and sandals, there is also another space for housing taller boots, which can often be difficult to fit on standard shoe benches. The fact that the top has a bench seating area means that you can take a seat while you put on your shoes — or use the bench area as a storage surface for bags and accessories.

The stackable shoebox & organizer, 4-pack ($29.99) is a great buy for the amount of storage you get — it also has the benefit of offering completely see-through organization, which is ideal for individuals who are highly visual. Being able to open the shoebox from the short or long side, or the top, makes stacking the boxes and accessing their contents easy. Customers have given them a 3.9-star average out of over 1,600 reviews. Critical reviews mention that the boxes are difficult to assemble and sometimes arrive damaged, but positive reviews praise the effective performance they offer.

For a little more storage than the aforementioned option, the TRINITY 4-tier shoe rack with console top ($39.99) includes four tiers, with three that are slatted and ideal for holding shoes, and a top that can be used as a drop zone or additional shoe organization (you can even optimize further by using the top space with baskets to hold ballet flats, flip-flops, and similar pairs). Customers who have purchased this setup have high praise, giving it a 4.8-star average from 78 reviews. Ratings mention that it is sturdy and easy to assemble.

Blending natural materials with great customer reviews, this 2-pack of TRINITY bamboo frame shoe racks ($59.99) is a solid choice for low-profile shoe storage and organization. Customers have given these racks a 4.8-star average from 375 reviews, saying that the pieces are easy to assemble. You can use the racks separately or place one on top of the other for a double-decker, space-saving option. A couple of reviews mention that the racks don't stack super securely, recommending a small amount of glue to stabilize them. Each rack holds six pairs, providing ample space for everyday shoes.

If you like the idea of the aforementioned rack but want something that is crafted nearly entirely out of bamboo, the TRINITY bamboo 2-tier shoe rack, 2-pack ($59.99) could be the right choice for you. Instead of metal rungs for the shoes to sit on, these racks have bamboo slats as well as a natural bamboo frame. This pack is even more highly reviewed, with a 4.8-star average from over 2,800 reviews. Customers say that the shoe rack is very sturdy and that the stacking capabilities of the racks make this a versatile purchase.

Sometimes the best solution is hiding right under your nose, and that's where utilizing the Mesa woven basket ($37.99) comes in. The truth is that the right basket can be an easy shoe storage solution for your entryway that is both stylish and smart. This basket, which is available at Costco, has near-perfect ratings from customers who praise it for its durability and attractive appearance, giving it a 4.9-star average out of 38 reviews. One review even specifically mentions using the basket for shoe storage. Just periodically vacuum underneath it, which will keep dirt from accumulating.

If you need some storage for shoes and clothes, why not combine the two? The TRINITY bronze rolling garment rack ($99.99) offers an ample hanging rod for clothing and two tiers of wire shelving, which can be ideal for shoe storage. You can easily roll the rack around, too, thanks to the casters on it. Customers praise the rack, giving it a 4.8-star average from over 540 reviews. They say that it is an excellent choice that is high in quality and performance. This is undoubtedly a neat way to keep shoe clutter organized.

While not primarily designed for shoe storage, this clever unit could be a better way to store shoes in the laundry. The TRINITY bamboo laundry station ($89.99) has earned a 4.6-star average and can easily be converted into flexible shoe storage. The hooked bags are removable, but they could be useful for casual shoes that would otherwise be on the floor. You could assign one bag for each type of shoe, such as flip-flops, sneakers, and slippers — and still have three tiers of smaller shelves available for dressier shoes.
