BALEINE Eco-Friendly Easy Label Storage Boxes, 5-Pack

Storage boxes are the perfect double-duty item for any room in your house. Not only do they help you organize your things and ensure your space is neat and tidy, they also come in a variety of styles so you can spruce up your décor at the same time.

The most important thing to look at when buying storage boxes is size. After all, if your items won’t fit into the box, then it won’t be very useful. Get the things you want to store and stack them in a neat pile. Use this time to also throw away any items you don’t need. Then measure the dimensions of your pile to figure out approximately how big of a storage box you’ll need. Be sure to add in a few more inches for extra space.

In addition to size, also consider the fill weight, as storage boxes have a maximum weight they can accommodate. If you go beyond that weight, the box may collapse or break. If you will be keeping the storage box stationary, then weight won’t matter as much. However, if you’re planning on carrying the box or moving it from one room to another, make sure the items are not too heavy for the storage box.

• Storage boxes come in many different styles. From utility-focused cardboard boxes to elegant linen-covered bins, you can find storage boxes in just about any look. Think about where you will keep the storage box in your home and how you can match the look of the box to your décor. For example, if the storage box will be under a coffee table in your living room, you may want something that coordinates with your furniture. If the box is going to be hidden away in a closet, then the look isn’t as relevant.
• Don’t forget about handles! These are an important feature of storage boxes that often gets overlooked. Ensure there is an easy way to carry the box, especially when it is full. This will keep your fingers and hands safe.
• Sometimes, you have to store the storage box itself. In this case, opt for ones that are collapsible. This way, you can store the boxes flat, and just build them up as you need them. Collapsible storage boxes are a good choice for small spaces.
