Rolling stairs, sometimes referred to as rolling warehouse ladders, are must-have tools when you have items stored up high in hard to reach areas. Great for workshops, storage areas, small businesses and of course, warehouses. With rolling stairs, you have a strong and durable platform on which to stand on along with with a handrail so you don’t need to worry about standing on a shaky and unsecured ladder.

Basement storage cabinets
If you have an unfinished basement and use it mostly to store stuff that you don’t want up in the main part of the house, plastic or metal basement storage cabinets can come in handy for items that you don’t want out in the open. Paint, tools, old toys, cleaning products or whatever else you don’t want upstairs can be stored nicely in cabinets. And of course, for added protection, especially if you have children, make sure you can easily lock the doors with a padlock or other lock mechanism.

Toy storage unit
Keeping a child’s room and/or day care play-room area clean and organized can be a very frustrating job, especially when your kids have lots of toys, games and books that they keep playing with and then discarding for another toy or book. A toy storage unit, placed in the play-room or child’s room should encourage the little ones to put their toys or books away in either a big bin unit that they can toss things into, or a more organized set of drawers or baskets that are labelled for specific items.

Under bed storage containers
With space sometimes being an issue on the home-front, under bed storage containers can provide just the right amount of needed storage space for clothes, toys, books, collectible cards and more, when bureaus and closets are stuffed. These storage containers can also be used for storing and organizing DVD’s and CD’s to fit snugly under the couch or futon. And for greater convenience, under bed storage containers with wheels can be a big help if you’re constantly pulling the container out from under the bed a lot.

Plastic shoeboxes
If you love shoes and have more than a few pairs that are beginning to take up precious closet space, you may want to consider plastic shoeboxes for a quick, easy and inexpensive way to stack and store your shoes. Clear plastic shoeboxes allow for quick display of their contents, thus giving you more time to get ready for whatever engagement is pressing without having to shift and search through box after box for your favorite pair.
