Shop storage containers by room

In the living room, fabric containers keep throws, cushions, and magazines tidy while adding a soft, stylish touch. For garages and utility rooms, our heavy-duty storage crates handle tools, garden equipment, and sports gear without being affected by damp. In the kitchen, storage trolleys and food storage containers keep dinnerware and essentials organised and within reach.

For longer-term storage, airtight containers with clip lids stack well in lofts or slide under beds, protecting seasonal clothes, shoes, and coats from dust and moisture. And if you're looking to bring some order to a home office, storage drawer towers are ideal for keeping documents, stationery, and work essentials close to hand.

Find the right style of storage container

Who says storage containers are only functional? Here at Homebase, we have a wide range of colour and design options so that you can tailor your storage to you and your home.

Clear storage containers, for example, are great for anything you’ll want to easily see before opening up the box, like kitchen essentials or kids’ toys. White storage containers, on the other hand, are great for anything you want to blend into the design of your room, whether that’s canisters for the kitchen, or cabinets for your bedroom. Whether you’re looking for your storage solutions to stand out, or sink in, you’ll be sure to find what you’re looking for here.

FAQs

What are storage containers used for?

Storage containers work across every room. Fabric boxes and baskets suit living rooms and bedrooms, while airtight lidded containers are ideal for lofts and underbed storage. For garages, sheds, and utility rooms, heavy-duty plastic crates handle tools, garden equipment, and sports gear without being affected by damp.

What size storage container do I need?

Smaller containers suit kitchens for food storage, desk organisation, bathroom essentials. Mid-range works well for toys, clothing, and general clutter. Larger containers are better for bulkier items like bedding or garage storage - and many in our range are stackable, so you can build upward rather than outward.

What's the difference between plastic, fabric, and wicker storage containers?

Plastic is the most durable and moisture-resistant, making it best for garages, sheds, and lofts. Fabric boxes are lighter and more decorative, better suited to living rooms and bedrooms. Wicker and rattan add natural texture that pairs well with wooden furniture, though they're less suited to heavy or damp-prone storage.

Can storage containers be used in a garage or shed?

Yes, heavy-duty plastic crates and lidded containers are the best choice where damp and temperature fluctuation are a factor.

Are stackable storage containers worth it?

If you're short on floor space, stackable containers make a real difference, particularly in lofts, under stairs, or in utility rooms. Most of our plastic lidded boxes stack securely, and buying in a matching set means you can add more as needed.
