This Is the 57-Cent Tray Pro Organizers Are Buying to Tidy Messy Cabinets in Their Homes – I Swear by This Set of 25 and So Will You

I have used affordable tray organizers from Amazon to tidy up messy cabinets and drawers all over my home, and I swear by their brilliance for transforming cluttered areas easily and with long-lasting results.

And I’m not the only one who loves them, with KonMari® Master Consultant and professional organizer Rebecca Jo-Rushdy snapping them up for her own home.

Here’s how I’ve used Amazon’s 57-cent tray organizers, which come in a pack of 25, where you can make use of them in your home, and why they work so well to banish in-cabinet or drawer mess permanently.

Why Experts Love These 57 Cent Tray Organizers From Amazon

This sets comes with four sizes included, so they can fit any space. The four different sizes include: 9 x 6 x 1.8 inches (three pieces), 9 x 3x 1.8 inches (six pieces), 6 x 3 x 1.8 inches (eight pieces), 3 x 3 x1.8 inches (eight pieces).

Consider using them in:

• Cabinets and drawers: It will help organize kitchen drawers with ease.
• Closets: Adding trays brings immediate and improved functionality.
• Deep drawers: There is no point wasting the height of your drawers. Stack to store more. The Amazon trays are non-slip.
• Organizing bins: It's one thing to chuck stuff into bins under beds or sofas, but that risks becoming a clutter catch-all. Categorize and organize bins in hidden spots so when you need something, you can find it easily.
• All rooms: These are versatile and work in all busy areas of your home, including bedrooms, entryways, living rooms, kitchens, garages, home offices, and more.

I’ve already bought Amazon organizing tray sets like this and used them to easily transform my messy drawers, the makeup in my vanity, for my daughter’s craft items. I’m picking up another 25 to use in my home office sideboard.

KonMari® Master Consultant and professional organizer Rebecca Jo-Rushdy, founder of Spark Joy & Flow, says, ‘These organizing trays are brilliant value and super versatile. I might buy some for backstock myself!’

Rebecca has often used similar ones inside drawers or even nested inside baskets for cleaner category separation when helping clients organize their homes.

What I’m Using Them For Next

I spend 40 hours a week in my small home office, and there is just one cabinet there for storage. It’s the beautiful and sturdy COSTWAY Buffet Sideboard from Amazon, pictured above, which is wildly popular with shoppers and useful. However, the tall cabinets on either side of the deep drawers do not have shelves, so the items inside have become a mess.

I’ll be stacking the 57-cent Amazon organizing trays and categorizing items in each section of my sideboard to improve functionality and stop the tsunami of mess that falls out each time I open the cabinet doors.

Similarly, the drawers have become a catchall for all sorts of things, from my favorite candles, to plant care items, and need not only a clearout using the 5-Step Clutter Shakedown, but organizing trays to corral items together permanently. This will prevent me from having to dig around and guess where that tape measure or candle lighter is next time I need them.

Rebecca says, ‘For the sideboards, I completely feel you on the height issue. Stacking works well, and the transparency of the Amazon Trays is so helpful when vertical KonMari “file-style” storage isn’t possible.’

The professional organizer offers up three extra tips you can easily implement at home when using these affordable Amazon trays, and I’m certainly going to give them a go in my messy cabinet.

• Add labels: If you’re storing cords, tech bits, stationery, and other small items, add a simple label on the outer edge of the tray so you don’t have to pull each stack apart when looking for the thing you need.
• Grouping by frequency of use: Put everyday items at the top, whilst storing “just in case” or backup stock at the bottom.
• Add grip: Pop a small grippy pad or Blu-Tac underneath the trays to stop them sliding, especially in deeper cabinets.

What to Shop

Rebecca adds that introducing affordable organizing trays to messy cabinets, especially tall ones lacking shelves, is ‘such a great idea'. She explains, 'It’s simple with no DIY required, but it genuinely makes a difference long term.’

Delve into other ways you can use vertical storage space to save space, and the underbed storage ideas you can leverage even in the most compact homes.

It's preferred to store items in climate-controlled areas of your home, rather than basements or attics, which often have fluctuating temperatures and humidity.
