The Container Store

Who doesn’t love The Container Store? They have all sorts of gadgets that you would never think that you would need. This location huge, organized, it’s equipped with helpful and knowledgeable staff associates and of course it’s attached to my favorite mall… South Park. I highly recommend that you join the Pop program when you have a chance. They always send coupons between 15% — 25% off you can’t beat that!

So many knick knacks for the home! I can get lost in this place. They have everything to stay organized for any room of the house. Need to get your garage, office, bathroom or kitchen organized? They have the products for you!
I’m obsessed with their closet organizers– a knock off of California closets. They also have some super cute gift boxes, wrapping paper and packaging.

I LOVE this place. Found a ton of organizing supplies. The people there are very helpful, kind, super personal, will help you more than you expect. The prices are a little steep on certain items like baskets and plastic drawers, but supper efficient in other areas such as hangers and gift bag items.
They have a really great and unique variety of hooks and hangers for walls and doors. A great place to find unique gifts. All I want for Christmas is a gift card there and a healthy organic products place. ;)

I recently shopped on-​line and did their store to car pick-​up. Actually that may not be the name of it but basically they bring your purchases out from the STORE to your CAR. They even have special parking spaces for you to pull into for this experience.
At online checkout you choose the time you will arrive. My plans changed and I arrived about five hours early. I tapped the button in my email expecting an angry phone call or a «this service is not available» note.
Neither happened. About five minutes later my order was hand delivered to my car. A little lazy of me? Uhuh. In my defense I did have both my dogs in my car. I’m sorry I was five hours early. Thank you for the amazing customer service.

I stopped in to get a Jarkey Jar Opener. I haven’t used it yet but am hoping it is as easy as described. The item was in the front of the store near the registers but I had to look around. When it comes to storage and containers, this is the spot. They have all the knick-​knacks you have seen and heard about but didn’t know where to purchase. I left with a few more items than I intended but I didn’t go crazy. It was relaxing to look around the store so that I have a better idea of what they have and when I should make another trip. Some items are pricey, but then you sometimes have to pay for simple things that make life easier. The staff members were kind, courteous, and very helpful throughout the store.

So I’ll be honest I stopped in here for one item… on the recommendation of a friend.
I hate to say this, but while there I found way more than the one item I purposely went for! The staff here were all very kind and actually described this place as «Disney Land for adults». And I’d say that’s pretty accurate based on my receipt.
Sure some things are a bit pricey, but I’m more than pleased with everything I got. And apparently they go all out for the holidays so I’m sure to be back then to see the decorations and find more goodies!

The container store definitely lived up to its name, but we are looking for a large set so this wasn’t the right fit for us. I did see a nice trash can for the kitchen I will have to come back once it is on sale. Every sales associate was hospitable and eager to help.

Im a hairdresser and was trying to figure out a better way to organize my color tubes in the dispensary at the salon. I was talking to a friend and she suggested that i start out at the container store. Im SUPER glad i did.
I didnt know what to expect when i walked in, but the staff were super friendly and helpful. The store was laid out well and easy to navigate.
They had everything from kitchen storage, bath storage, closet organizers, cool gadgets and knick nacks.
Within 15 minutes, I found the items that i had envisioned… all in one place… and not really that expensive. I got like 5 items for $ 65.
Now that i know the place is there and what it has. …ill definitely go back.
I also saw some really cool Bookcases they had… worth going back to take another peek.

Located on the Barclay Downs side of Southpark Mall (stop by California Pizza Kitchen for a salad to re-​fuel) is a big box store full of big boxes. And little boxes. And medium boxes. Mesh boxes. Plastic boxes. Etc.
If visiting during prime dining hours, be aware that this is near the food court, CPK, McCormick and Schmick’s and City Tavern, so parking can be a bit of a stress.
In a new home with minimal storage, I came to The Container Store after visiting their website to see if I could find some storage solutions, as well as a new container to keep the cat food fresh so picky #1 and picky #2 wouldn’t stop eating their food half way through the very expensive bag.
To store the quilts that my mother has so lovingly made for me, I found a natural fiber woven looking laundry basket to put next to the fireplace full of quilts for colder days for $ 40. I also found a cute plastic pet food container with paw prints painted on for $ 10.
I do think that some of the prices here are a little high, while some are average. A couple of things that I saw seemed like great solutions to storage issues, but while perusing another website for a big box store, I was able to find similar items for slightly lower prices, and when you couple that with the 20% coupons that are continually sent, the other place was a better bargain. However, if you are wanting higher end items, just like spending more money, or need perhaps unique items, The Container Store is the place for you. I very much enjoyed browsing through the aisles getting ideas. I took some pictures of some items, so I will return when motivated to complete my next organizational task.

Is this not the best store?! They have containers for everything, some so cute that you would buy it and find something to go in it!
The store is well lit, wonderfully organized and the staff is friendly and very helpful. I went in to to browse and kill time, but had to drag myself out to keep from buying things I did not need. This place is a neat-​freaks dream!

Container store was great when they first opened but the staff now appears to be either busy or just way too snooty to wait on the commoners. I remember Caitlin designing a closet for us when they opened when we went back she was gone replaced by some cranky woman who was just bored to be there. What happened? Not going to buy overpriced shelving from unfriendly people just marking time. Sorry they apparently ran off their young friendly employees.

I can’t exactly say that I was excited when the wife wanted to go check out the Container Store. Apparently, we need some organization in our lives and it was time to get it done. You can definitely get lost in this store as they have too many items to count. They have products for every room in the house and for any need that one would have and even some needs that would not be obvious.
On this visit, we netted a small storage filing box, a spice rack organizing thingy, some kind of dusting contraption and a wall mounted hanging closet organizer. All in all, I was impressed with my first visit and I am sure that there will be more to come.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable in all aspects container.

No, I cannot possibly contain myself here as the signs suggest. The selection is positively endless. Any possible way you can imagine a box or general container looking you will find it here and for a relatively decent price.
Looking for a new closet organization idea on the relatively cheap? They’ve got racks, mounts, drawers, hooks all for decking out the inside of your closet to be more user friendly. How about that garage. Is it a wasteland of junk piles just looking for a wall to call home? Any way you can imagine to hang a bike, sports gear or just about anything you’ve ever wanted to get off the garage floor they present the choices of a lifestyle here. And if you’re looking to travel soon they’ve got bags ranging from tiny to huge with a variety of uses.
The obvious container items aside this store has a lot of great stocking-​stuffers if you’re already shopping for Christmas. A personal fav of mine is the things by the check out that you didn’t know you needed until you saw them. Sewing and first aid kits that fit in the pocket? Sure! Bag clips and cord wraps? Useful! Echoing the words of Angie P., this is heaven for the obsessive compulsive.

I had to remodel several closets. Container Store helped me beyond my expectations. At the time when customer service seems to be disappearing from American landscape, the attention and expertise I received at Container Store was beyond your typical customer service today. I came into the store with measurements and basic ideas about what I wanted in my closets. Jamie, a sales associate, listened carefully to my ideas, took notes, then disappeared for a brief moment only to reappear with a complete plan of my closet complete with measurements and all the materials that I needed. Planning a closet was never easier.
I also really appreciated the courtesy of the store personnel. Debbie always greets me when I arrive, she remembers my name, and even the details of my closet «adventures». It is also refreshing to see people enjoy working at the Container Store. The happiness of personnel is comparable to good cheer at Trader Joe’s.

I think we stopped into the Container Store shortly after they first opened (replacing the Joseph Beth Booksellers store). One thing you can say about them is that there is no false advertising in the name: The store offers containers. Containers in every shape and size, for just about anything you can imagine.
Unfortunately for most of us (and ultimately, for them), just about everything you may need on a regular basis can be found elsewhere — say at a Wal-​Mart — for a good deal cheaper. Sure, there are fancier containers here, and special containers and whatnot, but when you are buying shoebox containers, why pay 50% more for each when you are buying dozens and they are going to sit in your closet?
As to service, the web site actually has better service than the store. I don’t think a single person in the store said so much as hello while we were there. We have ordered online, and even had problems (cracked lids and such) — a call to the service line results in a shipped replacement in no time, without so much as a question, and no need to leave the house or even put on pants. Nice.

Is this seriously happening? Someone created a store based on nothing but storage and organization! Everything you need is right at your fingertips. I cannot wait to make it back to this little gem after purchasing my first house. Who knew storage could be so rad?!?

Myriad choices to make your head spin & your organizing fetishist sigh with ecstacy. The staff members are very helpful & will take you or point you to the place you long to be. Even if you don’t need anything you will find something you do. They even have terrariums to store your moss collection in!
Although I miss the bookstore, I don’t know what else could have taken over this huge space. The prices are reasonable for some of the smaller container choices but larger shelving units I know are cheaper elsewhere. I found a nice wheeled shopping cart that folds up that I can’t wait to use when they open the new Whole Foods on Fairview!

Being a type A personality, neat freak & (clinically undiagnosed) OCD, this store is perfect for me! While the place has been at Southpark Mall for a few months now, I just went for my first visit yesterday.
Areas are neat, organized, signed & priced well. They have a lot of the common organizational brands such as Rubbermaid & Umbra (two of my favorites). The departments are well laid out — i.e. «office», «kitchen», «closet»…
The prices seem pretty reasonable for the majority of items; however, some things I picked up seemed a little overpriced for what it is.
Employees are in sight, friendly & helpful.
Another element I love with shopping is the «buy online, pick up in store» option. They also have a kiosk inside the store where you can do the same.
I have already made my «wish list» online to purchase in store, soon.

This is a new store to SouthPark mall. I stopped in here looking for something specific which despite the plethora of storage options, they didn’t have what I was looking for.
Inside you have storage options for every room in the house. Containers for everything! They even sell boxes of every sort from gift boxes to storage boxes. There are organization options for your closet, desk, kitchen. They have bigger things like desks, trash cans, and laundry baskets.
Prices seamed decent for the kitchen storage items but some of the larger items seemed a little pricey to me.
This store might be worth it if you’re looking for something specific that Target doesn’t have and you don’t want to trek up to IKEA and jockey around tourists.

«Contain yourself» is their slogan but there’s more here than just containers. Organizers for desks, wrapping paper, shelving and even a large section of travel stuff like suitcases and passport wallets and three ounce squeezy tubes so you can still bring your shampoo on the plane! Huge selection of Christmas wrapping paper.
Lots of the stuff is crazy expensive. $ 200 for a shelving unit? Holy cow! But there are a few bargains to be found. I picked up a nice glass jar for under $ 10 and a weekly pill case for $ 4.
Service is excellent and they’ll be more than happy to help you figure out how to solve your storage issues.
