I live by the philosophy that everything in your home needs a home. When each and every item has a designated spot in my apartment, tidying up is effortless, and I rarely spend time looking for my things before heading out the door. The hard part, though, is finding those designated spots in the first place, especially since I have a lot of stuff in a small space. Often, I have to create them out of thin air.

In the spirit of getting your home in order ahead of back-to-school season, I found 10 clever organizers at Walmart that provide homes for errant items all over the house. Some are flexible-use storage bins, while others are smart tools that’ll have you getting rid of older versions taking up precious storage space. Even better, most of them are on sale right now.

Vtopmart Bathroom Plastic Storage Organizer, 3-Pack
$33$25

Maximizing space underneath the kitchen or bathroom sink used to be a chore until under sink organizers came around. This customer-loved version has two levels of clear acrylic bins that smoothly pull out from the stand. It comes in a pack of three, and if that’s too many to fit under your sink, consider using the extras in your pantry for snack organization.

Mainstays 11" 6-Cube Storage Organizer
$35$29

A classic cube storage organizer is a timeless organization solution for bedrooms, offices, and playrooms. This one has six spots for fabric storage cubes up to 10.5 inches. Choose from six finishes and use it vertically or horizontally to best fit your space.

Hadineeon 90L Under Bed Storage Bags
$40$19

These underbed storage bags are a must for people with small closets, big wardrobes, and lots of extra bedding and towels. Reinforced handles on multiple sides make them easy to pull out from their hiding place, and clear tops let you know what’s inside right away. Their breathable fabric will protect whatever’s inside from excess humidity in your house.

Owala FreeSip Stainless Steel Water Bottle
$30

An easy way to organize your kitchen is to get rid of the water bottles you no longer use and rely on one or two you keep in constant rotation. That’s what I do with my Owala water bottles, which are equipped with both a straw for sipping and a spout for gulping in the same lid. I have two for tap water, and a third that’s exclusively for flavored hydration packets.

COOK WITH COLOR Snack Container with Ice Pack
$22

A snackle box might be the tastiest organizational trend there is. I like that this one has eight removable compartments of the same size, and each comes with its own lid, so you can take them out and use them individually when you don’t need the whole box. Every piece is dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup.

Sindcom 26 PCS Clear Plastic Stackable Organizer Bins
$15

You can use these small clear plastic bins however you like — I have something similar in my makeup drawer, separating my liquid blushes from my lip balms. This set has 26 bins in four different sizes, and it comes with silicone pads to prevent the bins from sliding around when you open and close the drawer. You can also buy sets with 11 bins, 40 bins, and even 60 bins, all on sale for under $30.

Sterilite Wide 3 Drawer Tower
$25

This exact plastic storage drawer tower is sitting in my bedroom closet right now. It’s currently holding my workout clothes, tank tops, and sports team tees, but I’ve rotated so many items in and out of it over the past seven years. It fits neatly under my shorter hanging options (think blouses and jeans), and the drawers slide out easily.

Costway 15 Drawer Art & Craft Rolling Storage Cart
$119$68

This rolling storage cart has 15 drawers — 10 small, five large. Universal rolling wheels and two handles on the top help it move smoothly, and wheel brakes lock it in place once you’ve found its spot. There are more than a dozen color combinations to choose from, and I think this rainbow style would look especially cute in a kid’s bedroom.

$68 at Walmart
Computer Monitor Stand Riser
$33

A good computer monitor stand not only brings your screen closer to eye level, which can alleviate neck pain, but it also creates some extra storage space on your desk. This one is equipped with a bottom drawer that’s divided into three compartments and an open middle level for important papers. If you’re using it with a laptop, its perforated design helps prevent your machine from overheating.

Better Homes & Gardens Over the Toilet Bathroom Storage Cabinet
$99$79

In my opinion, an over-the-toilet storage system looks much more sleek when it has doors that hide away your stuff. This one has a shelf within its two-door cabinet, and beneath it, there’s an open level to keep go-tos in easy reach. Its rustic finish is a softer alternative to the metal structures you often see in this niche category.
