If Your Pantry Is a Bit of a Mess, These 10 Organization Hacks Will Fix It ASAP—Starting at $10

Kitchen pantries are usually one of the first places to clutter up. (Refrigerators are second.) Hungry people on the hunt for snacks are going in and out of the pantry all day long, and it doesn’t take more than a week or two for the once-organized rows of food to start looking disheveled. That’s where pantry organizers, like lazy Susans and stackable wire baskets, come in handy. I’ve found that the more storage systems I have in place, the neater the pantry stays. 

My favorite pantry organizers offer smart solutions to pantry clutter and are all available on Amazon for as low as $10. My top picks include corner organizers, metal shelves, and over-the-door organizers from recognizable brands like Amazon Basics, Simple Houseware, YouCopia, and more. I even included the BHG-tested and -approved food storage set that we ranked “Best Overall.”

Check out my favorite Amazon pantry organizers that are on sale right now, starting at $10.

Bambusi Bamboo Corner Rack Organizer

Larger food pantries can often become like bottomless pits. If you have a bad habit of throwing cans, chips, and other snacks into the void without organizing them by category or zone, this corner rack organizer with a 4.6-star rating is going to be a game-changer for you. This three-tier rack made of eco-friendly bamboo increases storage space and, at 9.5 inches tall, conveniently fits inside most cabinets and pantries. This pantry organizer is also surprisingly compact, fits easily into tight spaces, and even cuts back on your plastic use in the kitchen.

Amazon Basics Stackable Metal Kitchen Storage Shelves

Another smart way to maximize storage in even the tiniest of pantries is to lean into its vertical space. This shelving unit’s steel construction ensures that each shelf is reliably sturdy, so you don’t have to worry about them collapsing and making an even bigger mess. You can use these shelves—which have more than 11,500 reviews—to store and organize all types of pantry items, including small cans, seasonings and spices, glass storage containers, and more.

YouCopia Crazy Lazy Susan Organizer

YouCopia is one of my personal favorite organizing brands, and this pantry organizer with three removable bins puts a genius twist on the standard lazy Susan. Each BPA-free plastic bin features an easy-to-grip handle and can be removed for convenient access. It rotates a full 360 degrees and rests on durable stainless steel ball bearings, so it’s never clunky or wobbly as it turns. It also features nonslip feet at the bottom, which prevent it from sliding around.

Anjuban 4-Piece U-Shaped Stackable Wire Baskets

Another brilliant storage solution that makes use of wasted vertical space, these stackable wire baskets come in a set of four. Each metal basket has a U-shaped opening that’s wide enough to slip your hand into without having to remove the other baskets stacked on top.

Eastherry Over-the-Door Pantry Organizer

Here’s a part of the pantry you never considered using for storage space: the door! This pantry organizer conveniently hangs over the pantry door, making storage space out of thin air where there once was none. It features nine shelves with varying heights for accommodating different-sized bottles, jars, and containers, but if you’d prefer a smaller version, the brand also makes a six-tier pantry organizer.

Simple Houseware Under-Shelf Basket

In addition to taking advantage of vertical space, you can also maximize space by installing under-shelf pantry organizers, too. This two-pack requires absolutely no tools, as each basket has two clamps that securely slide onto the shelving above. It’s most suitable for holding lightweight items like napkins, food wrap, bags of chips, and other kitchen essentials.

Lamu 2-Tier Lazy Susan Turntable Organizer

This two-tier turntable is a best-seller that has been purchased more than 7,000 times in the past month. It’s made of clear, plastic that maximizes visibility and rotates 360 degrees for easy access to all items. Its height is 7.9 inches, and it also features a raised 1-inch edge that prevents items from tipping, falling, or spilling.

Rubbermaid Brilliance 14-Piece Food Storage Containers

This 14-piece food storage set is a customer-loved favorite with a 4.7-star rating overall and more than 4,000 reviews. Each container is made from shatter-resistant, BPA-free plastic and has an airtight lid with secure latches. The set, which we also named “Best Overall,” includes containers of various sizes and three half-cup scoops.

Netany 24-Piece Glass Spice Jars

If your spice rack could use a makeover, take it off the countertops to give yourself more cooking space and move it into the pantry instead. This 24-piece pack of spice jars—which has a stellar 4.8-star rating—comes with a collapsible silicone funnel for accuracy while funneling seasonings. Each jar is made from bamboo and glass for a stylish finish. 

Sakugi 5-Tier Metal Storage Shelves

If you’re working with very little pantry space to begin with, use this five-tier metal storage shelving unit to DIY your own pantry in the kitchen or garage. In addition to holding your food supplies, it’s also sturdy enough to house kitchen essentials like a microwave or toaster oven, as it has a max weight capacity of 1,000 pounds. This unit measures 12.6 x 33 x 72 inches, and can also be placed in a walk-in pantry if you have the space.
