Spring Cleaning: the storage products you need for a perfectly organized closet

Cleaning out your closet is not exactly the most thrilling spring activity, but it goes a long way in helping speed up your mornings by showing you what you really have in your closet and even reminding you of items you had forgotten. It also gives you the opportunity to clear out old clothes you no longer need that can be donated, or turned in for resale on sites like ThredUP or eBay. Sometimes all you need to get organized are the right products.

We have rounded up the top choices to get your closet in order:

High quality hangers are a good place to start. I myself prefer to use velvet coated hangers, like the AmazonBasics Velvet Suit Hangers. They help keep the true shape of your clothes and prevent them from slipping off.

AmazonBasics hangers feature a non-slip velvet material that holds clothes in place without falling or sagging. The contoured shoulders keep clothes shapes while the additional notches help to keep accessories in place.
The hanger’s slim and sleek design allows you to maximize space in your closet while keeping your clothes secure while being stored. The durable and sturdy design is able to hold clothes up to 10 pounds. AmazonBasics hangers are available in packs of 30 or 50.

You can get a 50 pack of the AmazonBasics Velvet Suit Hangers for $23.44 Prime shipped or their Velvet Shirt/Dress Hangers for $20.45 Prime shipped. Another great option for a hanger are the Jobar Open Ended Slacks Hangers. These will keep your work pants from wrinkling at $13.99 Prime shipped for a set of 12. Ties, belts and scarves can also be hung on the IPOW Rotating Rack for $6.99 Prime shipped. It comes with 2 racks and has an easy to use 360 degree design.

If you are looking for extra hanging space, you might want to look into setting up a custom closet with Rubbermaid’s Custom Closet Deluxe Kit for $86.24 shipped.

If you have space at the bottom of your closet, the stackable and best selling Seville Classics Composite Utility Shoe Rack is the most attractive way to go. The single pack has 3 shelves at $29.99 Prime shipped. For closets that do not have the floor space, you can go with a hanging shoe rack such as the Whitmor Collection version for $11.99 Prime shipped. Hanging shoe racks have a slim profile that will take up very little space in your closet. If you are completely out of room there is also the space saving solution of underbed storage. Richards Homewares Cedar Underbed chest is a top rated option for $23.95 Prime shipped that comes with space for 12 pairs of shoes and cedar inserts to keep your shoes free from pests.

Whether you are looking to fill out closet shelves or to organize your drawers, storage boxes are an inexpensive solution. The Sorbus Foldable Storage Baskets will stash all your loose belts, hats, t-shirts or anything else you can think of at $18.99 Prime shipped for 6 boxes. They are a best seller with their foldable design and multiple color choices. You can also use the Sorbus Foldable Drawer Dividers to keep your drawers perfectly in order.
