Conquer Cold-Weather Clutter: Storage Ideas for Your Fall & Winter Gear

As temperatures drop, gloves and mittens emerge from our attics and garages. If you’re lucky, some of them will be matching sets.

Either way, it’s time to get your home in order for the colder weather. Whether you’re trying to stow hats without ‘em falling to the bottom of the closet or stash a snowboard somewhere all season (other than the back of your SUV), here are Walmart’s top fall and winter storage solutions to keep your gear organized, dry, and ready to grab.

Werseon Boot Storage Organizer

Price: $27.99

Store up to six pairs of rain boots, snow boots, or fashion boots upside down — plus, store sneakers or dress shoes underneath. (I never knew that a boot rack like this one existed, but now I have to have it!) Walmart.com has much pricier choices, but this mid-range model is less than $30 and earned 3.8 stars, on average.

Mainstays Diamond Boot Tray

Price: $5.67

If you live in a climate with lots of snow, you might want a boot tray at your front door or in your mudroom. For less than $6, this one (measuring 15 inches by 29 inches) helps keep water contained while the ridges elevate your footwear to dry.

Armscye Hat Organizer

Price: $9.99

This organizer stores 24 caps or beanies in clear pockets, so you can always see what you’re grabbing. It’s also ideal for ski masks or gloves, and fits neatly over any door with three flexible hooks.

Sfugno Ski Storage Rack

Price: $69.99

We only have one snowboarder in the family, but I’m ready to click “buy now" on this rack to clear some of the clutter from my garage. It’s also a great place to store sleds, snow boots, or bicycle helmets. Plus, you can’t beat the price.

JOZ Entryway Hall Tree

Price: $56.89

If you’re looking for a single place to keep everything for outdoors within arm’s reach, this is a logical choice. My heart skipped a beat when I spotted this, as I’ve been looking for one just like it for my entryway!

It comes in a choice of black or rustic brown and includes 18 removable hooks you can rearrange to fit your family’s needs. Two storage shelves for shoes — plus two drawers for hats, gloves, and scarves — complete the unit. It’s made of sturdy wood and metal for durability.

Prepac Armoir

Price: $189.99

Want to keep winter wear out of sight? You can add an armoire to your entryway, living room, dining room, or even home office. This one, which comes in five different finishes to match any décor, has an average of 4 stars from nearly 400 reviewers, many of whom compliment its sturdiness and easy assembly. Consider adding baskets to the shelf for better organization.

Futeen 2-pack Wall-mounted Wooden Coat Rack

Price: $18.99

If you don’t have much floor space in your home, a wall-mounted coat rack can keep cool-weather mayhem contained. Accommodating eight coats each, this pair caught my eye. Stack them on a single wall or split them up. Now, it’s time to get that pile of coats off your living room couch.
