If You Have A Colossal Closet Problem, These 19 Organization Solutions Can Help

1. Some Wonder Hangers — point blank period. They’ll ~triple~ your closet space so you can snatch every trending piece you come across on TikTok.

Check out how they work on TikTok here! And PS: Wonder Hanger is a small biz!

Promising review: “I wish I had taken the time to take a before and after pic because I have so much more room in there now than I did before. I found the cutest tops in there that I had completely forgotten about because my clothes were crammed in the closet so tightly. Most of the time, I felt like I had nothing to wear, LOL, and now, I know exactly what I have, and it’s even organized by sleeve length and color. I would definitely buy again and actually plan to buy more for my husband and children to use as well.” —Mariko Lamb

Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three colors and packs of 10 or 24).

2. hanging closet organizer so you can store clunky things like sweatshirts, shoes, towels, and other items that take up an unreasonable amount of space when hung.

Promising reviews: “I love this thing. The pockets are large and deep so you can fit so much inside of it. Saved me a ton of room in my closet.” —Amazon Customer

“I love this product. It is exactly what I needed! It is very easy to put together. I hang it in my closet to maximize the space and to clear additional shelf space in my closet. It is very functional. Instead of tippy-toeing to reach things, they are all directly in front of me for easy access. The quality is good, it feels sturdy, and it is likely to last a while.” —Chao Chao

Get it from Amazon for $14.88+ (available in five colors and with or without removable drawers). 

3. And a set of shelf dividers, too, that allow you to maximize that hard-to-reach space in the top of your closet instead of just haphazardly throwing things up there and hoping they stay.

They’re also great for bulky items like linens and towels! The dividers — from small biz Lynk — are 12 inches tall and can slide over any standard shelf up to 7/8 inches thick.

Promising review: “I love these! They fit snugly over my shelf, so they don’t shift or move around. I have a lot of handbags, and it’s been a mess on my closet shelf for the ones that are floppy. I have limited closet space in a small home, so my choices of where/how to store them are limited. This was the perfect solution. I plan on buying more when I get around to rearranging sweaters on shelves.” —BarbraGenie

Get a set of two from Amazon for $17.99.

4. A hanger stacker perfect for anyone who seems to hoard hangers. If you don’t have the space available for them to live on the rack unless they’re actually holding clothes, this is the solution. 

If you’re trying to figure out how many you’ll need, each rack holds ~roughly~ 50 hangers.

Promising review: “I grew tired of throwing my empty hangers into a pile in my closet. They would get all tangled up and really frustrated the heck out of me every time I had to put away clothes! This hanger stacker seemed like an easy solution, and boy, was I right! It assembles really easily (just two screws and an Allen wrench), and it is good at keeping my hangers organized. Buy one — you won’t regret it!” —Bubbles456

Get it from Amazon for $23.72+ (available in sets of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, and 40).

5. lightweight system that can hold up to 16 T-shirts at once. That way, you can clean out what’s supposed to be a “guest closet” but turned into a “second closet” for you instead.

Promising review: “Our family is growing, and I realized there’s a lot of space in a closet that isn’t being used. That’s how I came across these, and now, I have them in all the closets. They make getting clothes so easy, and now, we have more space for the growing family! XOXO!” —Megan

Get it from The Roll Keeper on Etsy for $19.99 (available in three colors).

6. Some nifty shoe stackers which store one on top of the other and fit everything from booties and sneakers to stilettos and golf shoes.

And FYI — Shoe Slotz is a small biz!

Promising review: “These shoe holders are fantastic. I’m using them for heels, casual shoes, and sneakers. For people with smaller feet (I’m a 7), it doesn’t ‘double’ your space, but you can get three pairs where you had two. For people with larger feet, you really will double the space.” —silversong203

Get a pack of six from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in packs of 10, 20, or 40).

7. Or, you can get ultra-organized with a set of uniform, stackable shoe boxes if you’re looking to make your own walk-in wardrobe.

Promising review: “Fits my shoes nicely (I wear size 10 men’s). They’re easy to assemble and quite sturdy considering that they’re made from a lighter plastic material. The magnets are a nice feature and keep the doors closed!” —Austin

Get them from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in four colors).

8. hanging organizer that’ll keep your purses off your bedroom floor. It’s designed with clear pockets so you can easily see everything in your collection without having to tear them out every time you want to switch up your look.

Amazon

Promising review: “I love nice purses, and I save up to buy good purses of quality. This way of storing my purses is so convenient — there’s no stress on the straps, they are visible, kept safe, accessible, and dust-free in one organized place. The hook and seams are strong. I actually have 12 purses stored, and the smaller purses have plenty of room to share a sleeve. Nice product! Glad I purchased it.” —Julia H.

Get it from Amazon for $11.49+ (available in three colors).

9. A baseball hat organizer that’ll keep your caps in one central location without taking up much space at all. Even better, the DomeDock will keep them in tip-top shape as you won’t accidentally step on them or throw your platform boots on top of them the next time you quickly toss stuff in your closet. 

PS: DomeDock is a small biz!

Promising review: “Such an efficient and easy way to store hats. Whoever came up with this is a genius!” —Melissa Humphrey

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in white or black and individually or as a two-pack).

10. An adjustable hanging rod to help you make the most of your already spatially challenged closet. You can tweak the contraption’s vertical and horizontal measurements so it fits juuuust right. 

Promising review: “The best thing about this product is that as long as you have basic assembly skills, it works with the strength and reliability of any similar product that costs five times as much. Every. Single. Bad. Review of this product is misleading and purely due to user error during setup. I can easily hang over 20 pairs of thick men’s jeans and pants on this bar with ZERO issue. I promise you, when installed correctly this product will be a great source of organization and storage happiness for you and your closet.” —Lily Elisabeth

Get it from Amazon for $17.87+ (available in packs of one or two and in three finishes). 

11. Some hanging vacuum bags so you can stow away seasonal items you know you won’t use any time soon. 

Promising review: “Bought these storage bags two weeks ago to pack my winter clothes away for summer, and they did the job perfectly. They are large and sturdy. I like the five-hook design. I can store five women’s jackets or four big men’s jackets in ONE bag. The long bags also fit my dresses. The biggest reason I bought these bags is that I do not need to fold my seasonal clothes; just hang, zip, vacuum, done! Super convenient. Extremely happy with these space bags. I will definitely order more!” —Jia Yan

Get a pack of four from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in various colors and pack sizes).

12. 23-loop scarf/belt/tie hanger so gone are the days when you have to search the bottom of your closet for that *one* belt that would just make your outfit.

PS: One reviewer even uses it for her child’s leggings! So it’s very versatile. 

Promising review: “This thing is amazing. I was skeptical about buying because all the other reviews had pictures with lighter summery/spring scarves, but my collection is mostly winter wear. I wasn’t sure it would hold all my large blanket scarves, but it does. My grandmother saw it and asked me to order one for her! This was the perfect solution to my organization problem.” —Nikolette

Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (available in three finishes).

13. A pack of tiered hangers sent from the heavens to keep track of all of your miscellaneous wardrobe items. Scarves, belts, ties, leggings…you name it. These babies can hold multiple items, too, so one eliminates the need for five normal hangers. 

Amazon

Promising review: “Very well made; sturdy enough to handle jeans as well as dress pants. They were a great addition to my closet. Great value for the money. Strongly recommend them.” —Amazon Customer

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $16.99.

14. An acrylic belt organizer you can mount to the wall or stack on top of your dresser — whatever makes the most sense space-wise. 

Promising review: “Love this thing. I try to keep all the basic belt colors I need — black, gray, brown, white, and navy blue — so the five slots work perfectly. I like having the option of mounting it on the wall, but it is pretty sleek on my dresser. I was getting tired of my belts looking like snakes on my dresser since I like to keep them coiled.” —Aaron Ortiz

Get it from Amazon for $34.99

15. A closet organizer that will help you get that custom closet look of your dreams without the hefty price tag of actually having someone custom-make it. And this one is fully rearrangeable so you can constantly edit it depending on what you’ve been shopping for recently.

The Container Store

The horizontal top piece is the only one mounted to the wall so the rest of the racks and hanging rods are easy to move around. This particular organizer is made for 51-inch closets, but The Container Store has plenty of similar options for differently sized spaces.

Promising review: “I had three closets designed custom in-store. It took about a month to receive my delivery but it was worth the wait. I absolutely love these closet systems and find it difficult to say one negative thing about them. The design process was very informative. The software capability is impressive. I opted to save money not purchasing installation and am currently finishing up the first closet install myself. I am a beginner DIYer and have had zero issues. I am very happy with the functionality of this product and ease of installation.” —NicoleMarieV

Get it from The Container Store for $499.99.

16. An over-the-door rod so you can make the most of an extra-deep closet. The additional rack uses otherwise dead space, anyways!

Amazon

You could also use the rack to hang dry any clothes you don’t throw in the dryer. 

Promising review: “Heaven. Took a chance and cannot stop raving about this. Incredibly sturdy. I love the grey silver color. It’s so awesome. Best purchase I’ve made in years! It’s SO durable, arrives in box easy to assemble, just two pops. Easy peasy. Really the best thing for times when you need a strong extra rack for clothes. Fits on door perfectly snug. I’d buy again in a NY minute.” —lisa j

Get it from Amazon for $15.99.

17. A tank top and bra hanger that keeps all of your pieces in view so you don’t have to tear through a drawer looking for your *one* bra that doesn’t have the underwire poking out the side. 

Amazon

Promising review: “Such a waste of space having cami and tanks on individual hangers! This hanger is such a space saver!! Plus I love having all my tank options in one spot, which makes it easier to choose what to wear.” —ChristineDoesCons

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three finishes).

18. Some legging organizing hangers if your black legging collection is getting a little out of hand and you never know if you’re pulling your indoor or outdoor leggings (big difference!!!)

Each hanger holds 10 pairs of leggings. Check out a TikTok of the legging organizer hanger in action. 

Promising review: “Yes…I have too many clothes. I LOVE my leggings. These saved me soooo much room! Now I have much more space, AND I can see them all easier.” —Larry Seymour

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $15.99

19. And a fancy schmancy motorized rotating rack — it affixes right to your closet rod — if your tie collection is quite the affair. (There’s room for 72 in total!)

Amazon

It does require four C batteries so don’t forget to add those to your cart, too!

Promising review: “I had to buy it because I own way too many ties. I’ve got 72 ties on this rack, and it runs like it has none on it — fast and smooth.” —Mike S.

Get it on Amazon for $49.99.
