The Container Store has a plethora of organization items for any project or just a home refresh that may be needed. I love organizing options for shoe storage and the bamboo stackable shoe racks, as someone who hates shoes worn in my place I love these for storing shoes at the door to avoid tracking germs and dirt throughout the house. The service here is great. The staff here seem truly happy as it magnifies over into the customer service and helpfulness they provide on each visit. When there is good service I don't mind coming back. I do recommend The Container Store. read more

We did all of our closet choosing the office system. Plus I did my garage. It's so awesome. Plus they have every kind of container you could ever want for anything that you want to put into a container. read more

This is a great store for finding one of a kind products for storage. We found something we were looking for and when we saw the "Buy 1, Get 1 50% off Storewide Got to the register and found that several brands are excluded and I just now noticed on the fine print and that to me is a BAIT and SWITCH why advertise it is "store wide" if you are going to exclude so many brands when you may have dozens of items on each brand means there might be hundreds of items excluded. Prices are on the high side and can understand that the overhead must be high due to the size of the parking lot and building. I had a hard time deciding on the rating read more

U bought my first dog dispensing bucket at this container store. It was wonderful and held up for fourteen years

This place is not close to us but we know we can count on it for certain storage and household items. We've been here a few times over the years and usually found what we needed, from compression packing cubes to cannisters to a plexiglass display for a signed basketball. The location might be a little tricky for some but just look for entrances off the main roads (it sits on a corner) and you should be okay. read more

Tons of options for your office, kitchen, bedroom, garage, storage needs. Awesome customer service. Karen is SPECTACULAR! Today's visit was my first and she was uber informative by giving me a rundown of the store's layout as well as an overview of the Rewards Program. I must admit - I encountered at least 4 other employees and they were all pleasant and accommodating. I'll be visiting again - the sorry has tons of options and a very generous rewards program. read more

Purchased Elfa Shelves at a Container Store in Houston, TX about 18 years ago and installed them in every bedroom in my house. Absolutely loved my closets and it was so easy to install. It has now been 10 years since I moved and missed having these wonderful closets in my new home. I finally installed it and once again feel like it was the best investment! I had no room for my clothes and my closet was a mess. Not anymore! I highly recommend Elfa Shelves. read more

Comfortable enough to walk around for as long as I like and acknowledge enough to know if I need help the people here actually want to help me. People. It's a container store. It has containers. The best part is this Store is as organized as the items they carry. Found all sorts of little kitchen things that I have been meaning to replace or add two. My friend picked up the food storage containers she had been wanting to see in person before purchasing. The closet this play area had me dreaming of redoing my entire closet. The stand out here though is the employees. I was approached once while I was shopping and a very open in friendly manner. Greeted at the front door, and what sounded like a genuine hello and welcome. And when I was going to make my purchase and leave, the cashier was excited about my items, chatted to me about their rewards program in a natural manner, and wished us a good day. The people skills on these employees would have be choosing to endeavor buy another utensil kitchen item or organization item anywhere else. I do not live in this state, but if I did I would go out of my way to visit the store for those needs. read more

Our long closet shelf came down twice. We were going to get a quote from California Closets to install one of their particle board systems but decided to get a quote from the Container Store for one of their Elsa wire systems. The rest of the closet is wire racks. Boy, are we glad we did it! On sale we spent only about $700 for the parts, $80 for delivery and about $300 for installation. Delivery and installation were third party. We worked with one of the designers at the Container Store for about 20 minutes and did a simple design of two hanging racks on left, two on right and shelves in the middle. We are very happy with the result. Cross your fingers that it stays up. We emphasized with the installer to drill into studs and she assured us that she did so. We saved some money because my husband patched the holes and painted where the shelf came down. We never got the estimate from California Closets but we heard from others that it is very expensive and could have been 2-3x as much. Plus it wouldn't match the rest of our closet. I think California Closet is great if you want that look but we saved a lot of money by going with the Container Store. I noticed one review by a Black customer who was treated poorly. I acknowledge that this happened. Our experience was good as two gay males, one white, one Asian. We never felt disrespected at any part of the process. Now maybe that was because I was white. I don't know. read more

Lovely store with a variety of your home needs. The store was organized and clean and I would have preferred more options for sizes but then again, the store can only hold so many items. You can find all things storage here from Tupperware, kitchen organization, stationary supply tools, gift wrap, closet nick knacks, travel gear etc. I was able to snag some racks for my kitchen cabinets and made them work! Super pleased with just being able to find a solution for clutter problems. I loved going here instead of guessing, measuring and taking a chance on things ordered from Amazon. There's nothing like going in, and feeling an item in real time, just wished this place were as large as an IKEA, that would be nice! read more

Visited this store today - very impressed with the assortment of unusual and cool gift ideas, the array of unique items and the many options for household organization. The Christmas wraps and decor was very surprising and unexpected. Why only two stars? Well, I overheard not one, but two, customers talking to Container Store employees about having to wait significantly long to get their items. In itself, I guess this isn't a big deal - what bothered me was that as I roamed the store, I heard three employees complaining about the customers - especially about one particular lady. It was extremely unprofessional to hear employees griping about a customer, and they did so while walking right by me. The store is very interesting but the employee behavior soured me on the store. Other reason for two stars - I was going to buy something, it was an item I did need, but as I got close to checkout, I saw that there were only two cashiers and two very long lines. Lines were glacially slow. I put the item back and left. Personally, I would not visit this store again. Way overpriced items, some rude employees (that I witnessed), and not the best checkout line management. read more

The container store is extremely overpriced. None of the several, several staff members greeted me or asked if I needed help. One of the staff members and a customer they were helping actually cut me off/walked directly in front of me to grab some merchandise which was extremely rude. They did not speak or ask to get by me as I was standing in front of the merchandise looking at it as one does. Honestly, I felt like I wasn't welcomed as a 25 yr old biracial female and I will never be back. Seems like they're only interested in welcoming a certain subset of the population if you catch my drift. The only reason I even visited this store was because I watched the Home Edit and purchased the book as I was inspired to get organized. My visit to this store definitely created the opposite effect and Target will be getting my money for my organizational needs instead. read more

Was in the Raleigh area for a birthday party and was pressed! To check out this store. Lol it's a very clean store. Literally containers. Containers. All my organizers out there. Please come in here with tunnel vision. I really had to refocus myself because I didn't have long to get what I needed. But I got my containers which finding was a very easy process. The store is well marked so you know where to go. There was also workers on the floor to help. They seemed happy to help. I hate asking I know folks be trying to stock but yes! I love this store. They Have containers of every size and shape for all your organizing needs. They have organization for almost every room in your home as well which was really nice. I looked at some of the options for kitchen organization (you'll be gone soon junk drawer! ) so if you are near a container store it is definitely worth the stop. read more

My son and I have lived in the area over a year now and initially my little guy didn't think there would be much for him to see in this type of store. But his mind was blown once we actually got to stop in! They even have a kids storage area that he spent 20 minutes in checking out all the "awesome stuff". Needless to say this has become one of his favorite places to stop on a regular basis. I was impressed with how helpful everyone was, I looked at old reviews and if there ever was a problem it seems it's been rectified. Not only were the employees helpful, but the GM or Manager of the store was actually out assisting customers. Which I think says a lot. The employees really seem to care, they helped me save money with the store membership. It seems the same as when you need to sign up at Harris teeter to receive some helpful discounts. I also overheard that they will deliver items for free if they aren't in stock at the store. Seems like they really try to accommodate as much as possible. The only negative I would say is check out isn't as fast as other places, but that's only because they seem very busy! read more

Considering I love this store so much, I was a little puzzled at the low ratings. When I went and read them, they all seemed to be based on poor service. Based on my 3 visits, I'd say the service is "non-existent" - I don't think I had a single interaction with a store employee besides checkout. That's a little strange for a store that consistently ranks in the Top 10 in the U.S. for best places to work. And a former colleague of mine is a regional manager in the Hudson Valley area, and she's a retail lifer - so maybe that points to poor store management at this location? At any rate - the wares just can't be beat. I could spend thousands here without thinking about it. The stuff we've gotten here has really improved our kitchen and closets. read more

I used to love this place. Then it began to slip. First, the nasty, racist attitude of a staff member who decided she needed to berate me in front of a line of people when I simply asked a question. Then, the lack of staff who knew anything about products, Then, the fizzle went out of the POP rewards program. The best time used to be Christmas when they excelled with paper, decorations and interesting stocking stuffers. Now this too, lacks imagination. Lack of stock for items that used to fill the shelves.... If this store is any example (perhaps it is poor management related to this store in particular)... I give the company 3-5 years at best to be sold off. read more

They're so very helpful here!! April and Julia were awesome! I lost my pearl earring in the store and they found it! Omg can you say I was panicked! But they definitely have the best customer service that I have every experienced! Kudos to a great staff!!! read more

I'm not the only one who took advantage of the recent days off and cleaned out a closet. I know because we were all at The Container Store today! It was packed, but the lines moved quickly. Prices on what I bought--a shoe organizer and a bunch of hangers--were reasonable. Most of what I saw was affordable, but not cheap. Of course, the whole closets are another story. They're amazing, but in the thousands. So for now, I'll dream. read more

If you are a neat freak, you have the right place. They have containment for every room. I like the garage origination products. They are very nice and can compact many items in a smaller space. If you have not been here, we'll what are you waiting for ? You can organize any room in you home. they have the accessories and the know how to do it. Most of the associates are trained in organization in there area of expertise. I am a fan , but do not expect to save $$$$$ here. This is cutting edge stuff. Well almost. Friendly and helpful associates in all areas. read more

This is by far my favorite store! It's located across the street from Crabtree Valley Mall. There is a private parking lot with tons of spaces. A stroll through this place will change your life. It's kind of like Target, you WILL find something useful or at least interesting enough to buy. The best place to peruse are the small items located near the cash register. They are small, random items --think stocking stuffers. There are kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, office and travel items. Storage containers of every size for anything you can imagine. The weekend is not the best time to get help with customized items/orders, it gets quite busy and you will wait. The Container Store offers Online Pickup which is a convenient service. There is a rewards program that you can sign up for. It sends occasional coupons and sale notifications. You've been warned! read more

I enjoy shopping at the container store. It's one of those places where you go and you just find everything that you need. They have everything from lunch boxes to wrapping paper. I recently purchased all of my Christmas wrapping and other material from wrapping gifts. Once I stopped in and found bookshelves on sale for 24.99 which were regular $99 let's just say I bought all of them!!! The staff is always really nice and helpful. I ended up having to return something and because I get the perks they were able to look it up and give me money back with no problem! The parking is good, I've always gotten a space up front. read more

Horrid customer service. Every employee interaction I've experienced over the years of shopping at this store has been poor. The store itself is clean and has an extensive array of organizational options, but the staff continues to be sub-par. When I've inquired about a certain product, they appear pained that they actually must do something...as though I am bothering them by actually forcing an interaction. I prefer to continue searching their aisles rather than annoying the staff with my mere presence. read more

On a recent trip I saw that there was a Container Store near by my business meetings. I was excited to go to the Store to see in person all the great organizational items and had my long list of items I wanted - I purchased numerous items only to get home 3.5 hours away to open my purchases and find washers/screws missing from several items. I contacted The Container store and was instructed to go back to the store (3.5 hours away) for returns or replacement parts or they could give me what the items were, and I could purchase them at the local hardware store (the washers/screws were to be included with the item) additional cost to me when the parts should have been included. I requested that the items be mailed to me and was told they do not do that - they were not in stock. I had a very positive experience while shopping even though some items were not available at this location - I was greeted when I entered the store, several times approached if I had any questions or needed assistance. Customer service was great. Sad to say - this was my first and last visit to the container store if they cannot assist in simple replacement washer/screws. read more

This store... is like a wonderland to me. Every time I'm in Raleigh, I MUST make a stop here. Obviously, they sell containers... but you must understand. They sell containers for EVERYTHING!!! If u have something and don't know how to store it, Container Store does. If you have a 'little something' that you think isn't really big enough to put in something, Container Store disagrees... bc they've created something for it. Their designers think of EVERYTHING! And if it hasn't been created, I'm sure they'd be open to suggestions. I am blown away with some of the things they have in there. I'm ALWAYS like, 'Ohhhhhh. This would be perfect for my... *fill in the blank*. Example: you know how you all have bottles (lotion, shampoo, ketchup, BBQ sauce, etc.), and when we get to end, there's always more product in those corners or stuck on the bottom that u just can't get out? Sometimes, I cut the bottle to get it out...? Well, the Container Store has a doo-dad just for that... yup. I KNOW, RIIIIIIGHT?!?!? But they do. LOVE THIS PLACE! read more

Wow. Just WOW. The Container Store is another in a long line of ideas that I wish I'D have come up with. Being the organization freak that I am, I simply cannot believe I didn't think of a store like The Container Store! There are all types of containers for your kitchen, cabinets, drawers, bedroom, closets, trash, laundry, office, garage, photos, and dorm room. You'll also find organizing accessories for travel, and in the back you find gift boxes and wrap, as well as moving boxes and packing (bubble wrap). Some of the coolest things I've seen so far: a chair made of bungee cords, a "leaning" shelf which looks like a ladder, garage wall racks to hold footballs/basketballs, etc. and car trunk organizers. The store is located diagonally across the intersection from Crabtree Valley Mall, and has a large parking lot. Definitely get here if you need some organization help! read more

Being the anal, obsessive neat freak I am, The Container Store is one of my favorite places to shop. I needed a magnetic basket for the fridge to hold coupons & bam, thanks to their great website, I found one & it was in stock at the Creedmore location. I was welcomed with plenty of parking. The store was neat, clean, organized (of course!) & had plenty of employee presence. I wandered around the whole store, because like IKEA, they get you to analyze your whole home: "do I need this?" I resisted temptation & left out with the magnetic basket & a stuff able laundry bag (to hold shoes when I travel). Prices are reasonable & employees are friendly & helpful. read more

Thank you for your prompt rescue , did not catch the name of person that responded. She was prompt and professional. Very grateful!

This place is my favorite store. April was very helpful. She showed me a book they sell that I bought and am using. I went in the other night to organize my messy desk drawer. She helped me find something and it works perfectly. I told her the dimensions and she chose something perfect. The following day, I came back to get containers for my closet. I was in the store for two hours trying to find something that would fit the shelves. April comes into work and told me to look on the sides of the store. I found the perfect baskets in 5 minutes. read more

On July 29th from 6:30pm-8:30pm, The Container Store in Raleigh, NC had a special event geared toward college students. Every non-sale item in the store was 20% off, which you had to register in advance for. Additionally, they offered free bottled water and snacks from Whole Foods, as well as raffles for free items, including organizers and an office chair (selling for $150). As you can imagine, this drew in a large crowd that strained their basket resources and made the aisles difficult to navigate. I had wait 5 minutes in order to receive a rolling shopping cart since they were all taken. I took this unexpected opportunity to load up on things that I had already planned on buying for the upcoming semester. It took more than an hour for the crowd to die down a bit, but until the very end the store was very busy which made me take longer than I would have wanted. For the first hour, Britney Spears et. al were blaring over the speakers, enticing a worker to block an aisle by dancing a bit. It also pumped up the workers to increase their desire to help, bordering on overly zealous. Normally when I shop here I don't get asked to be helped upon visiting each aisle, so I was taken aback with the frequency of hearing "can I help you?" I could easily have gotten out in under an hour on a normal day, but it took about 2 hours due to the many people. Annoyingly, many parents were just chatting with each other while blocking aisles, completely oblivious to their surroundings and were miffed as I asked to get by. Excuse me for thinking I was in a store instead of their living room! All in all this event was run well and I was happy with my overstuffed cart. read more

I'd recommend not shopping at this store if you expect to return anything that is defective. I bought 3 small metal containers that turned out to be defective. Alas, I didn't catch that fact during their 4-month return policy. When I did get to the store, they refused to either reimburse or exchange them for me. I don't live in Raleigh so my visits to the Container Store are infrequent. The manager admitted the defect but refused to do anything about it. A return policy is fine for something that one no longer wants, but not for defective merchandise. The latter should be reimbursed or exchanged at any time. It was a small amount of money--that makes it even more aggravating. As far as I'm concerned, I'll never shop there again. read more

Great customer service. The lady who helped me even went to the back stock room to find the item I was looking for. It was being unloaded from a truck she bought it out for me. read more

Containers: one, two, red, blue; big, small, short, tall. For the anal-retentive, this place is paradise. A container for every occasion! Everything is sorted into sections (eg, Closet, Desk, Kitchen, etc). Prepping for a new house, I picked up several drawer organizers, a tie rack, coat rack strip, medicine jars for the bathroom -- and I really hope to convince my husband to make a return trip this week while they have a 30% off special on closet installation. Our 1920s house could definitely use some modern-day help with effectively utilizing what space there is in our lil' closets. What was really surprising is that the prices are competitive. I hit Target later today, and was pleased to find that several items I'd gotten at the Container Store were higher at Target. (AND accordingly, I actually was able to leave Target without use of a shopping cart or a basket -- probably a first! :pats self on back:) read more
