15 Things You Need If You're Trying To Organize Your Home ASAP

Because organizing shouldn't take up your entire weekend.

1. A hanging storage unit with pull-out drawers that are perfect for neatly organizing any clutter you want to keep concealed. It comes with three large drawers for shirts, pajamas, and other larger items, while the two smaller drawers are perfect for socks and undergarments. There are also two empty spaces and three side pockets for any other random accessories that are in desperate need of their own spot.

Promising review: "If you are looking for an alternative to a dresser/closet organizer system due to limited space or limited budget, this is a great product. It is easy to assemble. The drawers slide in and out easily. Has a good amount of storage space. It is secure with the velcro that holds to the closet rod, even with the clothing's weight. It is also a great value for the price." —Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in 11 colors; also available in two other sizes).

2. An over-the-cabinet storage shelf so you'll always have an easy way to store your cutting boards and smaller pans instead of mindlessly throwing them in and hoping for the best. You can also mount it to your cabinet door if you want a sturdier, more permanent solution.

Promising review: "This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's a place for everything and no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards (four standard plastic boards) and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble, and it's completely versatile — hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." —Kerry

Get it from Amazon for $16.97 (also available in a two-pack).

3. A nifty shelving unit made specifically for the unruly collection of emotional support water bottles you've accumulated over the years. This will make it much easier to grab the one you want for the day and put it back once you wash it without wasting precious cabinet space.

Promising review: "I have a bad habit of buying reusable water bottles. This one is cute, this one has this feature, this one has that. What resulted was a cluttered cabinet, a ton of water bottles falling on me every time I went to get one, and I was only using the handful right at the front. This is a great solution! It keeps the cupboard organized and I can see what I have and quickly grab the bottle I need. As a bonus, it also creates a built-in limitation on how many water bottles I can have at any given time. Really recommend." —Miki

Get the three-shelf version from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in three other sizes).

4. A set of rust-proof shelves that fit perfectly in the corner of your shower so you can finally stop sitting everything on the ledge and hoping it doesn't topple over — because, let's be honest, it always does. This one has racked up thousands of rave ratings thanks to its sturdy, spacious design. 

Promising review: "This is the best corner shower caddy ever — and I have had several through the years. It fit together very easily. Shelves are quite large. I love the little horizontal 'railing' that keeps tall bottles from falling off. It is very sturdy and can hold quite a few large bottles." —Tracy R.

Get it from Amazon for $39.98 (available in three colors).

5. small kitchen cart, which is basically a must-have for anyone with limited counter space. Now you can finally have a dedicated spot for all those appliances you use often but not quite every day.

Promising review: "I ordered this rack for my daughter whose over-crowded kitchen counter was limiting her food preparation space. This three-shelf rack with wheels was the perfect solution for her situation. The rack easily held her Instant Pot, Vitamix blender, and Hamilton Beach food processor. The rack rolls easily underneath her counter without issue." —illustratedman

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in three sizes and two colors).

6. A set of glass jars with bamboo lids for everything from cotton swabs to hair ties to floss picks.

Promising review: "These are actually cuter than I expected! They are a tad smaller than some I've seen, but they actually looked great and can hold plenty of cotton swabs and cotton balls in the spare bathrooms. I have mine on a serving tray with a candle and vase, and they look great without taking up too much space!" —tara savage

The product is very sturdy and really super easy to put together and hang up on the doors." —MM1986

Promising review: "This product is exactly what I needed by my bathroom sink! It holds a couple of toothbrushes, toothpaste, and hand soap (which I ordered separately).

Promising review: "I love this thing! My husband got me a new vanity for my birthday, so I ordered this to go with it. It holds all my makeup, and I put everything in order of when I use it, so I just spin it, use what I need, then spin it again. It makes my morning so much easier." —MB

Promising review: "This has transformed the way my bathroom looks in the best way. I have nothing on my floor and top of my toilet anymore, and it really just makes everything look 10x cleaner!! I wish I would have bought this sooner, literally will do wonders for whatever it is you need to keep clean and organized (just make sure you’re getting the right size and you’ll be golden!!)." —Monika Fia

Promising review: "OMG, I love these things! Such a simple idea; how did I ever live without them? ... They hold all different circumferences of spice bottles. If some spices are too big to place all in the same connected row, you can cut off a tab and separate them. It doesn’t really affect the items on the shelves; you just have to push them back a little (maybe half an inch or so), so the spices have clearance when the door is shut." —Bridget D.

Get a set of six from Amazon for $13.97 (also available in packs of four strips).

12. A storage strip to keep your brooms and mops off the floor and free up some much-needed space in your utility closet. It might even convince you to clean more, but no promises.

The strip contains five slots and six storage hooks.

Promising review: "Repeat customer! I purchased one to organize the garden tools (rake, hoe, cultivator, shovel, etc.) in our garage, and by alternating the tops of the tools up/down, I was able to fit them neatly in the holder. I liked it so much, I'm going to install another next to it for the other items. The hooks are a nice feature to hold our gloves and a simple plastic bag to hold things when needed." —Rob C.

Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available in four colors, packs of two, and also with an extra small broom holder).

13. A game-changing pan and pot lid organizer, because reaching for your favorite cookware shouldn't feel like playing a game of Jenga in your cabinet.

Having such easy access to your pans might make you close Uber Eats and cook for once. I said "might."

You can use it upright or on its side.

Promising review: "I was tired of stacking my frying pans on top of each other and was looking for something to both organize my pans and give me easy access to them. Before this organizer, I would have to unstack several pans in order to get to the middle pan I needed. Now, I can just reach in and immediately get the frying pan that I need without having to unstack. The quality of this organizer is pretty good." —L

Get it from Amazon for $15.87+ (available in three colors).

14. A set of airtight food storage containers with reusable chalkboard labels to have your cabinets looking so immaculate that even Khloé Kardashian would be jealous. The four-sided seal on the lids will keep your dry goods fresh, and they're also leakproof so you can store liquids with zero worry about stains or spills.

The 14-piece set includes four small containers, four medium containers, four tall containers, and two extra tall containers.

Promising review: "Absolutely love these containers from Chef’s Path!! Have been searching for a good set for quite some time and am happy I stumbled upon these. I feel these containers are of a higher quality than others, and the price is much more affordable. I really like the fact that the lid handles are made up of durable plastic. The assortment of sizes is a plus; they’re easy to stack one on another and are rather durable. The locking mechanism works well to seal but is not difficult like others I’ve tried to open. The pen, chalkboard labels, and measuring spoon set are a great addition to the set. Everything you might need for pantry organization has been provided." —Manzi

Get a set of 14 from Amazon for $29.99 (available in two colors and also available in sets of 4, 24, 36, and 48).

15. And a set of dividers so you can easily organize your sock drawer and keep it from becoming an endless black hole of mismatched pairs. They're also perfect for scarves, underwear, bras, and more, so planning your OOTD is about to become so much easier.

The set comes with one six-cell bin (for scarves and ties), an eight-cell bin (for underwear, briefs, and ties), a seven-cell bin for bras, and a 24-cell bin for socks.

Promising review: "No matter how neatly I fold my bras and underwear, they always seem to become a big jumble in the drawer. These organizers are perfect for keeping everything in place, and you won't forget about those items you own that end up buried at the back." —M. Hanson
