32 Products To Help You Clean And Organize Your Pantry In Honor Of Spring Cleaning Season

Buzz Feed31-03-2025

1. A Scrub Daddy cleaning bundle with everything you need to tackle that cracked molasses bottle that has now adhered itself to your pantry shelf. Sure, you noticed it a few weeks ago, but you weren't mentally prepared to address it quite yet — and you didn't have a Scrub Mommy on your side.
What's included: Three Scrub Mommy sponges, PowerPaste, Tangerine Clean, and PowErase Gel.
Promising review: "First of all this was a really great deal, three sponges and three cleaners. Each sponge is a different color so that you can use them for separate things. Blue for bathroom, pink for dishes, etc. The gel cleanser stuff is my absolute favorite! A little goes a long way, but I have used it to remove stains from my kids clothes, wash the counters, windows, mirrors. It's like a miracle all-in-one cleaner, and best of all it's non-toxic. There's no bleach or nasty chemicals that hurt my nose or hands when cleaning. I really love this stuff!" — Arielle Stewart
Get it from Amazon for $34.99.
2. An over-the-door organizer so you can make the most of dead space. Your husband might have laughed when you came back from Costco with 24 boxes of Kraft Mac and Cheese, but little did he know you had the perfect storage spot in mind...
Promising review: "This organizer is just what I needed for my small pantry! The nine tiers provide ample space for everything I need, and it's super easy to install. I love being able to see all my items at a glance, which has saved me so much time when cooking. It's also very sturdy and well-made. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to declutter their pantry!" — puooch
Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in two colors).
3. Some pantry moth traps that use pheromones to attract the little demons that have been ravaging your supply of grains, cereals, flours, and pet food. Goodbye once and for all!!!!
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I had never even heard of moths in the pantry! Once I figured out where they were coming from, I did some research. Turns out they had been feeding off of granola and almonds for a while. I went online and this is what I ended up doing. These traps worked a charm, but it doesn't happen overnight so be patient. Victory!" — Ms. B
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $9.88 (also available in a set of 12).
4. A set of adjustable mug organizers so you can confidently open your cupboard knowing an avalanche of mugs isn't about to fall on you.
www.amazon.com
Elypro — the creator of this nifty gadget — is a small biz!
Promising review: "I came across these in an Amazon review on TikTok and I just had to have them for my mugs. I have a lot of mugs, but no space. I didn't want a hanging mechanism for the mugs I just needed a way to stack them. This is such a great product to help stack mugs. They're easily adjustable for any size mug. They don't topple over, they're very sturdy. One of the best space savers I have in the kitchen!" — Magdalynn Tibbetts
Get a set of six (to organize 12 mugs) from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three colors).
5. An expandable, two-tier organizer because every time you put a cleaning product back in the cabinet in the closet, you have approx. one millisecond to slam the door shut before everything tumbles out.
The shelving unit is suitable for most cabinets as you can adjust the height to four different levels (2, 5, 9, and 13 inches tall) and expand the rail anywhere between 15–25 inches. Since the dimensions aren't one-size-fits-all, it also comes with three large panels and four small panels so you can adjust the shelves.
Promising review: "I held back on buying an under-sink shelf because of the price, but this is so worth it because of how adjustable it is! This thing has made that mini-cave of an under-sink area way more organized, with stuff easier to get to or move out of the way. The two widths of shelf pieces are a smart touch; they accommodate a wide variety of drains under kitchen sinks. I didn't use all the shelf pieces because of the extra-wide and deep drain in my apartment. I think the only thing that would make this perfect for me is a cosmetic thing — a chrome version or a matte black. But since it's under the sink, the color is fine and close enough." — Kevin M.
Get it from Amazon for $24.47 (available in three finishes).
6. A nonskid three-tier pantry organizer ready to save you from buying yet another thing of paprika because yours is seemingly off exploring Narnia.
I have the 15-inch one and it fits in my standard-sized cabinet ~perfectly~ and allows me to see all of my spices so I don't have to rifle through them and make a mess every time I'm cooking. Ofc if spices are only part of your issue, it can also be used to hold extracts, canned veggies, sauces, etc.!
Promising review: "I'm so glad I finally committed to buying this. As a vegetarian, I've found that I have to add double the spice just to get a real kick in the dishes I prepare. Not to mention, making sure that I have all the spices that I'm going to need while being quarantining/ social distancing. With that said, my spice cabinet was atrocious before I got these racks. And I am so happy to finally be able to grab my spices without knocking over the other ones and making even more of a mess. I didn't know something so small and plain could bring me so much joy. Buy it now! You will not be disappointed." — Arie M.
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sizes and 12 colors).
7. Or a 30-spice door rack if there's simply no getting around the fact that your collection has outgrown its designated cabinet.
Each strip has five clips which fit most standard spice bottles (1.5–1.75 inches in diameter). The strips also come with pre-applied tape so all you have to do is peel and stick.
Promising review: "Love, love, love this! I have old narrow cabinets and not nearly enough of them so I desperately needed a new way to organize all my herbs and spices. Took a chance based on a list of cool new things and couldn't be more happy with this product! It came with 30 grippers for only $10. I didn't even have to screw them into my cabinets. If you follow the directions and let them cure 24 hours, the self-adhesive works great! I plan on buying a few sets for gifts!" — Brandi Y.
Get it from Amazon for $13.97 (available in three colors).
8. A shelving unit designed specifically for your water bottle and travel mug collection. First, TikTok got you to buy a Stanley and then it got you to buy an Owala, and honestly, you know you'll get whatever's next, too.
PS: YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home storage solutions.
Promising review:"I have a bad habit of buying reusable water bottles. This one is cute, this one has this feature, this one has that. What resulted was a cluttered cabinet, a ton of water bottles falling on me every time I went to get one, and I was only using the handful right at the front. This is a great solution! It keeps the cupboard organized, and I can see what I have and quickly grab the bottle I need. As a bonus, it also creates a built-in limitation on how many water bottles I can have at any given time. Really recommend." — Miki
Get it on Amazon for $24.99+ (available in three sizes).
9. A handheld steam cleaner that uses high-pressure, high-temperature steam (no chemicals!) to blast away nastiness from hard-to-clean areas like the metal shelving in your pantry.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Cleaned stove top and the hood vents. Then, I had to clean the sticky grease from the sink. Worked very easily and without chemicals. Easy to use and to refill. The attachments make various jobs easy to clean." — Lori
Get it from Amazon for $49.99.
10. Some aesthetic airtight containers that would make Khloe Kardashian proud.
Promising review: "They're so nice and they look great on your kitchen counter. I use them for cereal and cookies and they definitely add a nice touch to my kitchen." — BananaJo
Get a set of five from Amazon for $26.99.
11. Annnnnd some waterproof pantry labels so you always know what you're reaching for.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Work really well, stick firmly, and sleek matte black look. To be honest, they make me want to clean more now that I feel so chic using them! I'd buy stickers from this company again if they added more options — for now I'm grateful for these cute labels!" — Katrina
Get it them from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 4 sizes and 11 different sets).
12. Or, if aesthetics aren't the most important thing on your list of priorities, some airtight food storage containers (they're BPA-free!) with reusable labels so you can switch things out with ease. And even better, despite the fact that the set comes with containers in four different sizes, all of the lids are the same so you'll never have to go on a wild goose chase looking for one that fits!!!
Promising review:"I ordered a few different sets from this company and all seem really airtight so far. I like how they stack and am loving the label options. My pantry is looking really organized. Yay!" — Jackie
Get them from Amazon for $24.49+ (available in three colors).
13. A pack of six cord bundlers so you can organize unruly Instant Pot, toaster, and panini press cords instead of having to bat them out of your way every time you look through your pantry.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The bundlers work like any other Command product — with damage-free adhesive.
Promising review: "I have one of these attached to almost every cord-having thing I own, and for maybe $30 in total, I feel like my whole life got a facelift. My stand mixer looks better on the counter, and it stays clean even when everything else is a mess. My space heaters store so neatly in the linen closet. I have an HDMI cord bundled to the back of each TV. There's a bundler stuck between my car's dash and console, which holds two phone chargers. Truly, especially for the price, I could not recommend something more highly." — Amber Stewart
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
14. A two-tier lazy Susan strong enough to store your reserve of soup cans or spices. Plus, since it's nonskid, nothing will come flying out at you even if your rental's shelves are majorly uneven.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "This turned a mess of a cabinet into an organized cabinet. We use A LOT of spices and it was always a nightmare to find the right one. Now, I just spin to find what I want. It's a nice height, too, and allows for different sized bottles to be placed on the racks. Overall, this is a good purchase to help with organization." — vegmom
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in 10 colors).
15. A set of two cabinet shelf organizers so you can elevate your mug collection and make room for more because look, you *will* be buying at least one next time you go to Target.
Promising review:"I absolutely LOVE my new organizational wooden stands. They arrived today, as soon as I easily put them together I was surprised how great they looked. The texture is better than expected, very sturdy, looks great on my kitchen counter, and turned my messy counter into a nice display of items I use daily. I'm so in love with these I'm going to buy more for other areas if the house and my adult kids think they're great,t so thinking about getting them as stocking stuffers!!!!" — Kristen
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in four finishes and two sizes).
16. A set of clear plastic organizers where you can store your bounty of fresh produce and — in the back — the processed snacks that you absolutely love but aren't as eager to show off.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I love that the bins are clear so you can see what you need instead of having to rummage through the whole bin. I used one bin for corralling Hydro Flask and Stanley lids and straws. The other I use for corralling my resealable container lids. Aaahhhh no more mess!" — Knitter
Get them from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sets of two, four, six, or eight).
17. A chrome can rack where you can store all 36 of the Campbell's tomato soups you picked up because your grocery store was having a really good sale.
Promising review: "This is a terribly useful product because no canned good companies have the decency to make their cans the same size with interlocking lids which means you either have to stack your vegetables one high, or play a precarious game of Jenga every time you reach for cream of chicken. Enter this thing. It uses the same footprint as the same amount of cans would, EXCEPT there is none of that precarious stacking so you don't get buried in an avalanche of pantry staples every time you make dinner. Plus, it really cleans up your pantry. Pretty inexpensive solution to a messy problem I had." — Mr.andMrs.Moreno
Get it from Amazon for $21.99.
18. A cabinet door organizer with room for cutting boards, plastic wrap, baking sheets, and whatever else plagues your pantry.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
You can hang the steel rack over a cabinet door via a set of included hooks or you can mount it directly to a door or wall with the included hardware. It can support roughly five standard-sized cutting boards.
Promising review: " This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble and it's completely versatile — hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." — Kerry
Get it from Amazon for $14.87+ (available in packs of one or two).
19. A 24-pocket shoe organizer that doesn't have to be used for shoes at all! Some reviewers use them for water bottles and I'm thinking they'd work just as well for seasonal Starbucks cups...
www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:" I have many uses for these other than shoes. I have one in the pantry on the door for cleaning towels, brushes, spray cleaners, etc. Saves space under the kitchen counter and no bending! Have one in the bathroom for makeup, etc." — Charleegirl
"I use this for my water bottles. I put them on the back of my walk-in closet door. It saves storage space from my kitchen, and also prevents my kids from 'borrowing' them. Perfect hack idea!" — Nessa Probert
Get it from Amazon fo r $8.47+ (available in seven colors).
20. A custom mount for KitchenAid attachments so you don't have to store them in the bowl of your mixer and then temporarily relocate them every time you're ready to bake.
Superhero DIY is a Broomfield, Colorado-based shop with 3D-printed storage solutions as well as cosplay props, costume accessories, collectibles, and more.
Promising review: "These are so amazing! I had no idea they existed. I've been storing my attachments in the bowl, which has not only caused scratches in the stainless bowl over time, but the extra attachments would also be loose and taking up valuable space on my counter when I was baking and only using one attachment. It was annoying! This keeps them handy, but put away and I can select the attachment I need while the others stay put. So handy. Absolutely recommend!" — Marissa
Get a set of four from Superhero DIY for $9.55+ (available in nine colors).
21. A three-tier metal utility cart with four wheels so you can zip it around the kitchen as you cook. Use it as extra pantry storage or for your mis en place if there's simply no more room on your counters.
Amazon
Promising review: "I like the sturdiness of this product. It is just what I needed for my small kitchen. I use it for my spices, condiments and paper products." — Rosalind L.
Get it from Amazon for $32.71+ (available in three colors).
22. A macramé fruit hammock so your bananas, apples, and oranges can enjoy their last days on Earth in comfort. Little do they know they're about to be devoured. 😈
Knapps Knots / Etsy
KnappsKnots is a San Diego–based small business from Anastasia Knapp.
Promising reviews:"Absolutely loved it! Perfect if you have little counter space." — Jessi
"Love it. Might get another for bread and buns. The clearance between our counter and upper cabinets is weirdly short — can't fit most countertop items — so this was the perfect solution" — pogtotes
Get it from KnappsKnots on Etsy for $28.90+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors).
23. A slide-out pantry to utilize the dead space between your fridge and wall (or any appliance, really).
www.amazon.com
The four-tier cupboard slides around on four wheels so you can easy pull it out and push it back in.
Promising review: "I needed a skinny shelf that could hold canned food so I could make the most of my limited pantry space. This was inexpensive and fit in the space between the refrigerator and the wall but, best of all, it held a TON of cans and now I have a bunch of extra room." — Annette Bright
Get it from Amazon for $24.97.
24. A cabinet- or drawer-friendly lid organizer so you don't have to go through 27 Tupperware lids next time you're being responsible and trying to put away leftovers.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The YouCopia organizer has five adjustable dividers so you can even sort lids by size or color.
Promising review: "This product does exactly what it is supposed to and does it well. In under 15 minutes, I took my nightmare lid drawer and turned it into a functional, convenient storage space. The dividers were simple to install and provided flexibility. Slowly but surely I am getting my tiny, chaotic kitchen under control, and this got me a huge leap closer." — S. Hawthorn
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three sizes).
25. A wooden sandwich bag holder you can slip in a drawer or leave propped up on a pantry shelf for ultimate convenience. It has slots for snack-, sandwich-, quart-, and gallon-sized food storage bags and the lid is held on with magnets so it's easy to refill when necessary.
Each unit is made of solid birch wood. If you order the unassembled version, the seller recommends using wood glue to put it together.
Southern Miss Design is a small business based in Spartanburg, South Carolina, that specializes in handmade wooden signs and custom vinyl monograms.
Promising review:"I love organization and this is one of the most brilliant, space-saving, organizational items I have in my kitchen! I sent pictures to my family and friends because everyone needs one of these!" — Jesse
Get it from Southern Miss Design on Etsy for $43.50 (available in three finishes).
26. And a similar plastic, wax paper, and foil organizer that can be wall-mounted or simply plopped on a shelf. That way, you don't have to deal with cardboard boxes and only being able to find your tinfoil when it's wax paper you need.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"It's really nice having all three of our wrappings in one place. There's still room in our drawer with this in it, too. I love being able to cleanly cut plastic wrap... I will no longer waste plastic wrap or get it stuck to where it pulls off in pieces. This is also a great time saver. It's very easy to clean also. I highly recommend this particular unit. I like that it came with stickers too, that say 'Plastic,' 'Aluminum,' and 'Wax.' I was delighted at the price as well." — Cav Trooper 19D
Get it from Amazon for $22.98+ (available in three sizes and four colors).
27. A double-sided tea organizer because you're sick of spending five minutes every day freeing the box of tea that gets stuck in the narrow drawer you've shoved it in.
www.amazon.com
This is also from YouCopia!
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes).
28. A pack of duster sponges that — once dampened — collect ALL the dust, dirt, and pet hair that's accumulated on your shelves and around your baseboards. Tis' the time for their once-yearly clean!
www.amazon.com
Promising reviews: "These are exactly like the Scrub Daddy's. Only hella cheaper." — kr425
"I had low expectations for this. But I'm really happy to find that they do work really well for a much better price than the name brand. It's pretty much the same as the name-brand damp duster, except that the grooves are slightly wider. Dusted tops and fronts of my cabinets in about five minutes, but I'm most impressed with how well it removes pet hair from my couch and clothes even better than sticky rollers. I have Pomeranians blowing out their winter undercoats, so it's my new fav thing." — onon
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in packs of two, four, and eight and in five colors).
29. A wall-mounted pot hanger where you can suspend your entire collection in plain view. If cabinet space is scarce, this is an easy way to add extra storage.
The wall-mounted unit includes a six-track wooden shelf (so you can place lids vertically) and six swiveling hooks for hanging pots and pans. Once securely attached to the wall, the organizer can hold up to 30 pounds.
Promising review: "Easily my favorite kitchen item. I have a tiny kitchen that only has two cabinets for storage, so my oven was my storage for pots and pans until I bought this. Now I don't have to pull eight items out of my oven just to preheat and bake something. Installation was easy, took about 10 minutes. It's easy to pull the hooks up and move them when you decide you want them somewhere else and you can store lids or stock pots or other items on the shelf above the pots. Love, love, love this pot rack." — Patricia R.
Get it from Amazon for $67.95.
30. A pull-out hidden spice shelf attachment to help you use up dead space under fixed shelves.
www.amazon.com
Psst — some reviewers also use this for easy access to pill bottles!
Promising review: "I am very happy with this purchase. It couldn't have been any easier to install. I am looking forward to being able to gain more space inside my cabinets once I fully get my spices transferred into these (I bought two)." — SA Thompson
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
32. And a nifty pair of Mason jar holders you can mount to floating shelves or in your pantry so you can save some space but still keep in-demand ingredients at an arm's reach.
Tidy Jars / Etsy
Tidy Jars is a Wisconsin-based small biz that specializes in organization products to maximize space.

The 22 Coziest Father's Day Gifts For Homebody Dads

Whether it be for Father's Day, a holiday or birthday gift, I am definitely among the many who find it difficult to shop for their dad. However, I find that things get easier when I try to hone in on meaningful gifts that he'll actually enjoy and that are representative of who he is as a person, as opposed to just grabbing a generic 'man gift.' And while whiskey stones and camping accessories are all well and good, not every dad is a big drinker or outdoor aficionado. So if you've got a gentle, indoor dad who appreciates creature comforts and little luxuries (like mine), then this Father's Day gift guide is for you.
