Clean, well organized and personnel are super nice. I've never had a negative experience here and I've been shopping at this location for years. Salespeople are helpful but not overly aggressive and try their best to help you navigate the store and find what you're looking for. read more

Despite years of coming into The Container Store to see what they had as a solution for something I need, I've only once bought something there which ended up not being that special. Trust me, I do stop in several times a year, but always walk out opting for something at Target, Ikea, Home Depot, or formerly the Bed, Bath, and Beyond across the street. The prices here always seem just a little too high for whatever they have. I've known over the years, people who like shopping there for home organizing things, but perhaps I'm not their target demo. This time I see they have a big selection of those gaudy, metallic Hulken rolling totes.. which signage informing you it's what New Yorkers schlep with. (The Hulken really looks like something meal delivery people use.) Well, I'm happy with my Gorilla Cart and I'm a New Yorker. The impulse items by the register didn't move me as well. Of course, I don't have need for the clearly overpriced $16.99 Nail Stickers, $14.99 Tattoos, etc. read more

I love The Container Store and I will always go there for quickly purchasing items for my home, for storage, kitchen, bathroom and many other things. The reason I'm writing this review is because I had a bad experience with the elpha Closet system. I've had my elpha Closet for years, it was very expensive, and it infuriates me. I'm not sure if it's elpha or the container store who is at fault about this problem that is no fault of mine. There's a size issue here which may sound laughable to some people. If you are 5 feet tall do not buy an elpha Closet system or make 100% sure that the person who's helping you get it listens to you when you tell them you are 5 feet in height. I love being a petite person and I find things that work for me all the time. I celebrate my size in everything I do! Never in my life did I ever think I would have to use a stepladder to use my closet. I spent over $1000 right before the pandemic broke out, hustling and rushing to get the job complete in my little Greenwich Village flat, making calls to find someone to install it, and it's taking me this many years to finally report about this and express my anger and humiliation. I couldn't take it today and had to write. I cannot reach my coats. I cannot reach my skirts, my dresses, my shirts. I am not a dwarf, and I feel like a dwarf in my closet. The hooks are on the wrong side of the drawer shelving unit. The shelves above the pole where I hang my clothes are so high up to the ceiling that I have to climb on top of the dresser in a precarious way to do anything with the shelves. It is dangerous to use this system for me and it is extremely time-consuming. I wish I had never bought this closet system, and I wish that the person who sold it to me would have listened to me when I told her over and over again I am 5 feet tall. She just stood there staring at me and finally said it would work fine. I never should've listened to her. I needed a good closet before the pandemic took over our lives for years. I'm not usually want to have regrets, however, I wish I had spent the money on a much better system. Terrible customer service. read more

Part of my online order never shipped and I can't make contact with anyone who can help me get a refund.

Our experience started out very well but soon went down hill. We picked out our fabric but the sample was a different color than the sofa on display, we were assured by everyone that the display color was the color we were buying. When we were called that our sofa was in we went down to make sure it was the correct color but management would not let us see the sofa which was at their location. We now have our sofa but it's not the same color as the display model. The color does match our colors so we kept it. So why didn't we refuse you ask, because they will not give your money back, only a credit ! Also, if you are confident that you have the right color of your purchase, you have to go into the store to finish paying because they say that record their phone calls, so you can't pay over the phone ! We live an hour away ! Think about this, I bought a car online and only had to go to the dealer to pick it up! read more

Container Store is going to help out the BBB customers by accepting the 20% off Coupons until the end of May 2023! I'm a member of Container Store rewards and I get the emails. I'm not happy I don't have a location closer than this one. My daughter and I are already planning a visit ASAP. I'm recommending that all the Bed Bath and Beyond customers visit their stores before they go out of business too!! read more

As a shoper I want to give my best review to the customer service especially for Cheryl the best help I can have today, this is the perfect store it's a world of storage items read more

The Container Store is the best place to find all of your organizational requirements. The Chelsea location, in one of the old style New York factory buildings, contains aisle after aisle of every category: Everything Home Office (yay!) + Storage containers, Computer accessories, Gift wrapping, Kitchen supplies, Hi-Tech attachments, Custom closet and shelving. It's a perfectionists delight. Hoarders beware! The shop is clean and well organized and they offer all kinds of discounts if you sign up for frequent shopping. Let's get organized! Thank you for reading. read more

Buyer beware: They do not let you know that part of your order is on back order when you order it. It will look as though you can get your order within say a few days but you only get part of it. Then you have to wait a month or so for the rest. read more

Cheryl who works here is amazing!!! She goes above and beyond for customers and made my experience much better with her help getting my items to the car with a smile on her face. read more

Was so hopeful, thoroughly disappointed. I spent close to $500+ in my first month with container store. Regret it due to how poorly run they are. First red flag was that one of the shelves I ordered came with a missing foot. Contacted customer support. They told me to order replacement off of Amazon. Horrendous. Second red flag was that I had a return. I live in NY so the store looks close, but in actuality not feasible at all for me to go visit in less than 2 hours. No pre-paid return labels? In the Amazon decade? Genuinely pathetic. They expect me to pay - of course containers are the most awkwardly shaped expensive to ship. Stay away from this nightmare of a company. read more

At every Container Store, I've been to, the staff are always charming and helpful. This Container Store in Chelsea is no exception. I placed an order online back in December for store pickup. One of my items was back ordered until March and I was happy to get an email that the order was ready. I looked around for store pick up signs and was waved over to a register. The young guy behind the register cheerfully asked for my pick up email and guided me towards a few clicks. He then brought out my cellophane wrapped stash of stuff for organizing my home. I walked out with a smile on my face, unphased by the torrential rain. Another great experience at the Container Store. read more

The Container Store - Entrance - Home Organization Near Me - New York, New York

These guys are great. We moved to a new place recently and thus had to work with a bunch of contractors/installation/delivery companies for various home improvement projects, and I've had so many nightmare situations with delays, damages, etc. I had some custom designed shelving solution from the container store delivered to me and installed. Both delivery and installation came right on time. They emailed me instructions on how to get a COI for both, and BOTH the delivery and installation companies got the COI to me within 1-2 days with all the additional insured and requirements by my building correct (I've done back and force with 3 versions with other vendors before). This might literally be one of the smoothest experiences I've had. read more

With the amount of associates in the store (and no one in line to checkout so a few people just hanging our behind the register), you would think ordering online and picking up in store would be a breeze. It takes 20+ minutes to pick up an order with 1 item. Save your money and buy elsewhere! read more

For a store that specializes in organization, the ordering and pick up is very disorganized. Be prepared to wait when they tell you that your order is ready for pickup. read more

$6000 or more spent on drawers and closet design and which were undelivered. Nothing was correct. Unanswered emails and voicemails to resolve the situation. Although they may be pleasant, they are incredibly inefficient and not to be trusted. read more

I'm surprised I hadn't written a review for this store previously. I've been shopping here for many years. Even before Covid though, when many businesses were closing in NYC, this remained like an old friend. Although the "foot traffic" inside has been dramatically reduced since the store first opened, it still offers an excellent array of items. From closet organization tools, to every kitchen and bathroom gadget you could desire. The office supply area is fun, and they have a small section for sport memorabilia. The adjust register staff quickly if there is a line, and they always have me out the door in 5 mins or so. Free delivery in Manhattan. In an era of Amazon, this is where I buy my organizational stuff. read more

Love shopping at The Container Store, they usually always have what I'm looking for and the store is always neat. I love getting my household containers from here, how cliche . read more

They have lots of cool stuff but also lots of EXPENSIVE STUFF. If you don't mind price you can have the interior of your closet built by them and probably organize everything in your house beautifully! We bought a case of 6 shoe holders. We used them in the coat closet and it holds our shoes great! The downside was a price tag of a little over 100 dollars for 12 shoe containers, and having to carry bulky boxes on the train. Sign up for the POP REWARDS program online before going there and you'll automatically get a 15% coupon. Not only that but a lot of the times when you checkout the machine will print another coupon for you next use during certain dates. read more

Stop. Make sure you have a shopping list. And make sure you go to ONLY those aisles... and.. Oh forget it! Go crazy! How can you not end up buying something? The Container Store is like IKEA and TARGET; you go in with 1 item on your shopping list; you leave with a full basket and a bill about $$$, yeah... that much. It's organized, not surprising! My only peeve... why oh why does it take sooo long to check out?!?! Like C'mon... 6 customers... 2 registers??! OMG... I almost just left the stuff and walked out. read more

The best in customer service - they advised me on my closet design, installation went well. Always responsive to your questions. I chose them out of everyone else based on 4 other tenants in my building. read more

This is my favorite container store location. The aisles are always neat and well-stocked. The staff members are helpful and I've rarely seen a long register line. Although I'm no longer able to pop in here on a lunch break (LOL) I miss this location dearly and have been looking forward to going back. read more

Staff is always helpful, always enjoy finding new products, and sometimes I score on member discounts.

High turnover in staff , lack of teamwork wondering why ? The new inexperienced staff lacks product knowledge or organizational understanding , perhaps its unfortunately the local management? read more

I've been shopping here for many, many years, and I'm always so pleased with the experience of being in this very neat, and inspiring store. The quality and good looks of their items is just wonderful!!! I most definitely recommend this store!!! read more

They should really consider changing their name to "Random Shit You Unexpectedly Need" because I never knew how much I needed a coat hanger in the shape of a moose's head until I saw it. How did I ever live without it? The store's right across of Chase, so after you deposit your paycheck you can go ahead and treat yourself to that tiny liquid squeeze bottle smaller than the size of your fist that you've always wanted. I like the container store because they're about functionality without looking like a peasant. When ladies come over to my apartment, I like to at least have the illusion that I can throw money away on shit like gold plated hamburgers (it's a thing, look it up). And the best part is it's affordable. Not the cheapest but if you want cheap, I know a nifty place called Target. I'm trying to get laid on a budget here. Also, they surprisingly have a great selection on wrapping paper (that's dirt cheap after Christmas FYI). I think my ex-girlfriend was more impressed by the paper than the actual gift. She has such a sweet voice. To be fair, I did just wrap a box of Strawberry Pocky. read more

The Container Store - Home Organization Near Me - New York, New York

This place has one of the cleanest bathroom around the area, so come here if you want to release some of your natural waste. Its in back near the packaging boxes, not a lot of people know about it...Sometimes judging a place by it's bathroom, is my rule of thumb.. Place has a lot of boxes. If you need boxes and containers, this is the place to go. The line moves slow when it getsreally busy, so come during off rush hours. read more

I absolutely LOVE The Container Store!!!!!! My entire Pro Makeup Closet is suited by The Container Store. I chose 8 double acrylic shelves on all 3 walls of the closet. I bought 6 plastic rainbow drawer containers. This helps with my makeup organizing to color code the drawers so I know where everything is. The drawers even fit a lot of my bottles of liquid product up to 16oz bottles. I'm loving how the closet appears. I put up battery operated switch lights on all of the closet frame walls. Which was a great move because when I turn on those lights the light bounces off all the glitter and rhinestone items in the closet giving it a stellar appearance. I have storage drawers in my laundry closet as well. Perfect fit in that awkward designed space. I even purchased The Laundress Products. One of my favorite private label laundry brands. Keeping everything neat and clean is easy and a way of life for me. I'm thankful for The Container Store. I also got excellent delivery and in-store services. Yes I'm a proud repeat client. read more

We went there yesterday and it was a very positive experience; the store is well laid-out, it had a great selection, and the cashier was exceptionally friendly. (Update on 1/22/18): Today I called the store manager to give him a compliment about the cashier and we had a delightful conversation; the manager was really friendly. read more

I hired All Buttoned up through the Container store the Bay Area. - Tara will change your life. She made my life so much easier! Tara had a thorough plan for organizing my space and making it functional for me from the moment she walked in. Taking into account ALL of my concerns and ALL my special requests! The job was done promptly and professionally as well as being well priced and affordable. Her advice goes well beyond organization. Tara really considers the aesthetics of your space and your personal utility of the space. She makes it yours and still elevates it to the next level. Put yourself in Tara's trustworthy hands for all your organized needs!!! Thank you Tara! read more

Ordered online over $500 of InterMetro shelving, huge banner on website read free shipping for orders over $49. At checkout was $20 for shipping. Contacted customer service and was told to read the banner- gee I missed the tiny print off to the right side-'some items may incur extra shipping charges.' Small amount but bad & nasty advertising & service. Amazon will be my choice in the future. read more

Really wonderful store, l've been coming here ever since it opened in the early 2000's staff has always been helpful and gone out of their way to help me, on the rare occasions l have had to return things it's been easy and hassle free, most recently I bought a garment rack that was a floor sample, me and the salesperson had to look up the instructions on line to figure out how to dismantle this complex rack and then bring it to the register and wrap it as it didn't have a box, amidst all this l left my phone on the floor and had to return to the store the next day to pick it up, it was kept in the store safe! Highly recommended these people go above and beyond, l have nothing but good things to say about this place! read more

They are the worst. My order arrived today after three months. No replies to my emails or calls Will never use them again. Worst customer service experience ever read more

Worst experience ever!!! I've been so badly treated and considered by those people, I will never buy anything else from this store. Disrepectful to their customer, useless customer service, useless help, no service at all, I ordered my 2.0 connection shelves 2ND OCTOBER, please see pictures of what I get (in 2 separated shipments, delivered between 27th October and 10th November... + My second shièment was damaged!!!! I'm still waiting for the shelves, despite the last email they've been good enough to send me 3 weeks ago telling me that I'd be delivered by 10 days... Liars, uncaring people... I'm so upset and desapointed. I offer them back their 20$ gift card they sent me as apologies, I just din't want to get anything else from them. STAY AWAY!!!!! read more

Found what I was looking for Sales people were nice BUT I was overcharged $35 on plastic bins. I am shocked that the prices online were so much cheaper. I wrote their customer service NO Response ! I contacted the 6th ave store and they said they will adjust the price. So lets see? Stay tuned. read more

Mostly only do restaurants in fact this is my first non-restaurant review So I figure what the hell. If you are looking for essential housewares for your apartment or should I say shoebox in NYC this place has just about everything you need and They'll even origami your bag so you can wear it as a satchel to carry all the loot ya just bought down the street. I'll be back to throw more money at them I'm sure. read more
