The best bathroom organizers for 2025

"Turntables are an organizer's best friend," Teeple says. "What's great about these is that they come in a two-pack, are made of durable acrylic and make getting to your items in a cabinet a snap. Just spin and select what you need."

She likes using a turntable, aka lazy Susan, inside cabinets, placing it on one side of the under-sink pipe and stackable drawers (more on those below!) on the other. "They are perfect for storing brushes, travel products and nail care," she says.

Because these are clear and have a minimalist look, you could also place one on your vanity counter for easy access to cosmetics.

Several of the professional organizers we spoke to suggested products from The Container Store's in-house brand, Everything Organizer. These modular tubs and bins come in eight sizes, from 3" x 3" to 6" x 15" and are meant to be mixed and matched to fit your drawers. The squared corners line up perfectly so you don't waste a single centimeter of space.

Clear acrylic not for you? The Container Store's Ash Wood Drawer Organizers have a solid, sophisticated look and are made to resist humidity and warping. They come in five sizes: The smallest container, which measures 3" x 3", costs $3. 

'Tight on space? Go vertical!" says Shira Gill, author of three organizing books, including Life Styled, which came out last year. "This sleek three-tier cosmetic organizer can store everything from skincare to makeup to everyday essentials like makeup brushes while keeping counter clutter at bay."

The white trays are made with recycled plastic, and the top tier includes a removable cup, perfect for those smaller items that always seem to disappear in drawers. The wooden frame doubles as a handle so you can easily move this organizer around.  

"A clear organizer with divided bins is my must-have bathroom storage solution," says Leslie Lehr, owner of Leslie Lehr Living. "The multiple compartments offer the ability to organize everything from makeup and skincare products to toiletries and grooming tools, combining functionality and style seamlessly," she says. 

She uses the divided sections to store items by category to help her clients instantly find what they need. "And the clear plastic design provides a clean look," she says.

Another easy way to ensure you can easily see and access items in a cabinet is using clear stackable drawers. Almost every expert we spoke to named them as a go-to solution! 

A winner from the beloved organizing company The Home Edit, this drawer is a favorite of Hannah Goetz, owner of Hannah Goetz Organizing. "If you can't splurge on custom organizers, this is the next best thing," she says. It comes with a removable divider, which is handy if you're using it for smaller items like extra toothbrushes and soap.

For a less expensive option (minus the dividers), Ashley Murphy, NEAT Method co-founder and author of The NEAT Method Organizing Recipe Book, likes this $16 drawer from Target. "Stack drawers as needed on either side of pipes and top with an open bin in the same size to accommodate any tall bottles," she suggests.

"For bathrooms, especially with awkward piping and limited storage, I often use an under-sink organizer," says Ritsuko Nakajima, owner of After Declutter. "This shelving system makes the most of cramped spaces, keeping items neatly stored around bulky pipes."

The beauty of this shelf organizer is how customizable it is: It expands from 17 inches to 27.5 inches. It also includes six small shelves and two pull-out bins you can move around to accommodate plumbing and taller items.

Because most bathrooms lack storage space, Julie Bestry, founder of Best Results Organizing, is a big fan of over-the-door organizers. "These pockets are an easy addition," she says.

She likes them because they're mesh, not plastic, so they'll keep things drier when the bathroom gets humid. Just keep in mind that "because it's 'open' storage, it's not ideal for a downstairs powder room for guests. But it's perfect for corralling everything from hair/body grooming products to bath toys to styling tools in a bathroom only the family uses," she says.

For a sleeker, more permanent solution, Robyn Reynolds, owner of Organize2Harmonize, recommends the Elfa Mesh White 80" Over the Door Rack. At $90, it's pricey, but this rack is as durable as they come. The baskets are attached to one of The Container Store's famously sturdy Elfa rails, which you can either hang over your door from the included hook or mount with screws. You can also adjust the placement of the baskets without tools. 

At less than 5 inches wide, this cart is a true example of good things coming in small packages. It can fit in the tightest spaces (like between the toilet and vanity), rolls anywhere and has four tiers, so you can pack it with your go-tos.

Keep the items you need most often at the top, then use the lower shelves for tissues and toilet paper, says Bestry. "If you sandwich the cart between the toilet and shower, you can use the top shelf for shampoo and conditioner."

Try this minty green for a pop of color (it also comes in pink, which Bestry likes) or stick with a neutral (white, gray or black) to keep it inconspicuous.

You probably wouldn't leave this utilitarian, bucket-style turntable out in the open, but it's perfect for the cabinet under the sink. Jessica Litman, owner of The Organized Mama Co., uses it for corralling taller items like hair dryers, curlers and straighteners. Four different compartments mean you can group like with like — a tenet most professional organizers live by.

"When you are able to store your hair items under the sink, you open up drawer space for your face and skincare products," Litman says.
