If you use boxes and bins to store your stuff, you know they can fill up quickly and the items inside aren’t always protected from dust, mildew and little critters. The
Space Bag High Capacity Cube is the perfect alternative. Featuring an easy top-load design, the Space Bag High Capacity Cube sits upright while you stack items inside, and – just like all Space Bag vacuum-seal products – it can be compressed using a standard vacuum hose. This product is best put to use storing bulky bedding, decorative pillows or outdoor furniture cushions.
Do you own the Space Bag High Capacity Cube? If so, tell us how you use it in the comments section below.

If you live in a sunny location, chances are you get summer guests. Even if you don’t have fair weather, these tips for summer entertaining will come in handy. Follow our suggestions below to make sure you and your home are organized when hosting guests.
- Before company even arrives, keep their linens fresh by storing extra sheets and towels in a Space Bag Storage Pack. The airtight seal will keep linens fresh and safe from dust, pests and odors.
- Lay out extra towels, bottled water, snacks and any other items you feel would make your overnight visitors feel at home. Think of it as hosting your own bed and breakfast.
- Create a serving console to dish out summery drinks and treats. Keep utensils, straws and condiments safe from dirt and bugs by housing them in clear plastic storage containers with lids.
- If swimming or other water-based activities are part of your entertaining plans, get supplies ready ahead of time. Designate a splash zone to keep wet towels and bathing suits out of the house.
For more summer entertaining ideas, read our Outdoor Entertaining article by professional organizer Grace Brooke.

No matter the size of your home, each living space presents its own set of organization and storage challenges. People who reside months out of the year in a recreational vehicle are faced with an uphill battle in terms of space. Space Savers community member Janice from Opelika, Ala., shares her solution for small space living:
“While I have been packing my belongings to begin living full time in my fifth-wheel RV, I am using Space Bags to store my vast array of yarns. These Space Bags are proving to be a lifesaver and space saver as an RV has limited space and I am very insecure without my yarn stash at hand. I am hopeful that I will be able to store my entire stash in the basement portion of my RV. I am enjoying the bags I have and would recommend them to anyone needing to reduce yarn storage.”
We’re happy Space Bag products can make living in an RV more comfortable for Janice. Do you have any other tips you could share with her?

Another blogger was kind enough to share her positive experience with the Space Bag High Capacity Storage Tote. Kenda shared on The Caffeine Coquette how the space-saving product was able to give her peace of mind when it came to storing things in a damp basement. Check out the excerpt below and read her full review for more details.
“Most of our seasonal storage goes down in our basement so I can really appreciate the fact that Space Bag storage totes are airtight and waterproof. They also protect our linens and clothes against mold and mildew that can creep in when you use cardboard boxes. Unlike some other compression storage systems, Space Bag totes form into a sturdy cube that makes stacking easy and eliminates that moment when everything can come tumbling down because of an odd shape.”

Some people look forward to a chance to clean out the closet and go on an organizing spree, but not everyone shares that enthusiasm for spring cleaning. If you’re looking for some guidance on how to prepare your home for the warmer months, read our check list below. Do you have any other tasks you’d like to share? Leave them in the comments below.
- Go through your closets and pull out all of your cold weather gear and seal it in a Space Bag Storage Pack to make room for your summer wardrobe. While you’re at it, toss items that don’t fit or are damaged into a pile to donate or throw away.
- Move furniture away from the walls and clean behind them. We know it’s no fun to vacuum dust bunnies and wipe down dusty refrigerators, but trust us – your home will smell fresh and you’ll be glad you checked this once-a-year task off your to-do list for 2012.
- Prep your yard for the coming sunshine by clearing gutters. Do a sweep of the yard to pick up fallen branches or leaves and make sure your lawn mower is in good condition to tackle the soon-to-be growing grass.
For more spring cleaning preparation tips, head on over the articles section of the Space Savers community.

Kailani writes a blog called Island Life and recently shared her thoughts on the Space Bag High Capacity Storage Tote. Kailani was pleased to find a quick and easy solution for storing her winter clothing. She folded it up, packed it in the tote and squished the air out herself! Check out part of her story below and head over to Island Life for the full review.
“Like most families we have more things than we have storage for. Therefore, I’m always looking for space-saving products that will help me make the most of the limited space we have. For example, we have a bunch of bulky winter clothing from the few times that we’ve been in the snow … Just pile in your items, zipper up the top, and vacuum out the air. That’s it! The patented turbo valve removes air and compresses items 35% faster. However, if you’re like me and do not have a vacuum that sucks air out you can just roll the air out of the bag and use your body weight to compress.”

The garage often becomes a dumping ground for miscellaneous items, seasonal goods, sporting equipment, tools and anything else that doesn’t fit in the house. Don’t let haphazard storage turn your garage into a disorganized mess. These tips from HGTV.com will help you bring order back to the garage:
- Remove stains on the garage floor using a grease-cutting cleanser. For a more finished look, paint the floor or add carpeting.
- Store like items together. Designate a shelving unit or cabinets for pet supplies, gardening tools, sporting equipment, etc.
- Get things off the floor by adding hooks, racks and shelves to garage walls. After this, you’ll notice an added bonus of less tripping hazards!
Check out the many ways Space Bag vacuum-seal storage products can help transform your garage or basement by visiting our usage tips section.

Extra blankets piled high, toppling over one another and hanging off the edges of closet shelves – sound familiar? A messy linen closet is a common scene in homes across America. Kristi, a blogger who tried the Space Bag High Capacity Storage Tote, shared her experience of tackling this untidy area with the help of Space Bag. Some of her story is shared below; check out Moms Own Words for full details.
“This product has been around for several years. I recall seeing commercials over the years. Despite that, I have never tried it before. After trying it out, I can tell you that I am very glad that I did have the opportunity. I have extra blankets piled up on the shelves in my closet. It is pretty messy, because the shelves are pretty narrow and the blankets tend to hang off the shelves. That’s what I wanted to store in the Space Bag Tote … It’s hard to believe that 8 blankets fit in there with room to spare.”

If you’re like most busy people, you do a lot of living in your car. Trash, mail, jackets and other items that don’t belong can quickly accumulate, leading to a cluttered mess. This month, give your home away from home a clean sweep. Empty the trunk, restock tissues, maps, menus and other items you keep in the car, and give the car’s interior a good deep cleaning. If you consistently tote certain items around with you (sporting equipment, school gear, etc.) invest in Space Bag Higher Capacity Totes to store in the truck and keep items from becoming scattered.
It’s also smart to keep an emergency kit handy. Be sure to have extra blankets, coats, batteries, water and necessary medications on hand in case you encounter bad weather or break down on the road.
What other must-haves do you keep in your car and how do you keep them organized?
