28.5L Plastic Storage Basket for Toys, Clothing and Cupboards

Organise toys, textiles, packaged supplies and household essentials in this 28.5 litre storage basket. The plastic basket from Discountershop measures 40 x 34 x 23cm and provides more capacity than a compact cabinet basket without taking up the space of a large storage chest.

The brown rattan look gives the exterior the appearance of woven wicker baskets. Because the basket is made from plastic, dust and light dirt can be removed easily with a damp cloth. The open top keeps the contents visible and easy to reach.

Integrated handles help you remove the storage box from a wardrobe, pantry, shelving unit or toy cupboard. Use it as a children’s room storage basket, toy storage basket, kitchen cabinet organiser, wardrobe organiser or general cabinet organiser.

Large Storage Box for Multiple Rooms

A 28.5L storage basket is suitable for medium-sized and larger categories that do not fit inside a small drawer organiser. Keeping one type of item in each basket makes it easier to see what you have and where everything should be returned after use.

Use this large storage basket for:

• Building blocks, toy cars and play figures
• Small soft toys and doll accessories
• Children’s books and craft materials
• Towels, washcloths and household linen
• Socks, underwear and sports accessories
• Scarves, gloves and seasonal clothing
• Packaged kitchen supplies
• Cables, chargers and office supplies
• Hobby materials and lightweight DIY accessories

The storage box contains one large open compartment. Place small parts inside a case, resealable bag or inner container so they do not disappear beneath larger items.

Storage Basket for Children’s Rooms and Toys

Use this toy basket to organise a children’s room by activity. A separate basket for building toys, craft materials and books creates a clearer storage system than placing different types of toys inside one large box.

The open top makes it easy to take out and return toys. Place the toy storage basket on the floor or on a low, stable shelf when children are expected to tidy independently.

Suitable contents include:

• Building and construction toys
• Toy vehicles
• Doll clothes and dressing-up accessories
• Small soft toys
• Drawing supplies and craft paper
• Games stored in their original boxes
• Children’s books and activity materials

Store beads, dice and small construction pieces inside a closed inner container. Keep parts that are unsuitable for young children out of their reach.

Wardrobe and Closet Organiser

As a wardrobe organiser, the basket collects items that are difficult to keep in neat piles. The wide opening provides a clear view of the contents, while the handles help you pull the basket forward from a deep shelf.

Use it as a closet organiser for:

• Socks and underwear
• Belts and ties
• Scarves and gloves
• Sports and swimming accessories
• Small towels
• Hair accessories
• Throws and pillowcases
• Seasonal items

Keep frequently used products at an accessible height. Only store lightweight items on higher shelves so the plastic storage basket can be removed safely without tilting.

Kitchen Cabinet Organiser for Packaged Supplies

Inside a kitchen cabinet or pantry, use the basket to group sealed packages by category. Create one storage box for breakfast products, another for baking supplies and another for coffee and tea.

Suitable kitchen items include:

• Coffee capsules and tea packages
• Seasoning packets
• Snack and breakfast packages
• Baking decorations
• Napkins and coasters
• Tea towels
• Small, dry kitchen accessories

The basket does not have a lid and is not airtight. Store food in its sealed original packaging or inside a suitable food container. Suitability for direct contact with unpackaged food is not specified.

Check the Dimensions Before Placement

The storage basket is 40cm long, 34cm wide and 23cm high. The internal width is approximately 33.5cm, and the internal depth is approximately 22.5cm.

Measure the usable internal space of the cupboard, shelf or storage unit before ordering. Leave enough clearance above the rim and around the handles so the basket can be pulled forward without tilting.

Although shoppers sometimes use the term square storage basket for wider models, the product specifications describe this basket as rectangular.

Stackable and Nestable Plastic Basket

The basket is stackable and can be placed inside a matching empty basket. Nesting empty storage boxes reduces the amount of space they require when temporarily not in use.

The basket does not have a lid, and no maximum stacking load is specified. Always check the stability of filled baskets. Do not place a heavy basket above soft, breakable or easily compressed items.

For frequently used products, several baskets can be positioned beside one another. Assign one category to each organiser and use removable labels to make the contents easy to identify.

Remove the contents from the plastic storage basket and wipe away loose dust with a dry cloth or soft brush. Clean the inside and outside with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild cleaning product.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I prevent a large open basket from becoming cluttered?

Assign one clear category to the basket and regularly remove items that belong elsewhere. Use smaller cases for loose parts and place frequently used products at the front so the contents remain organised and accessible.

Can shoes be stored in this plastic storage basket?

Yes, provided the shoes are dry and clean. Place a removable mat or cloth on the base to collect sand. Allow damp shoes to dry completely before putting them inside the basket.

Is a 28.5 litre storage basket suitable for bedding?

The basket can hold folded throws, lightweight blankets, pillowcases and towels when they fit within the dimensions. For large duvets or long-term dust-free storage, a closable storage box is more suitable.

How should a full storage basket be carried safely?

Distribute heavier items evenly across the base, use both handles and keep the basket close to your body. Because no maximum load is specified, avoid overloading it or creating sharp pressure points.
