Target Bag Organizers Help Tidy Kitchen Drawers, Trend Gains Among Shoppers

Target shoppers are turning to modular plastic bag organizers to tame a familiar kitchen headache: an avalanche of boxes when you reach for a sandwich bag. A standout in Brightroom, Target's in-house line, is a bamboo organizer with four roomy slots designed to hold standard gallon, quart, sandwich, and snack bags. The square version measures just under 13 inches and keeps everything neatly aligned in a single, easy-to-access drawer. Reviewers say the bamboo construction adds a calm, organized look to the kitchen and reduces the cardboard box mess that usually spills across the drawer.

At the heart of the design are four separate sections, labeled for each bag size. The pieces are not joined, so users can rearrange to fit their drawer layout and space. Each compartment is intended for a specific bag type, and the assembly can be configured in a square formation to fit about 13 inches across. When you need a bag, you slide it into the slot and pull through a wide opening, making refills quick and tidy.

Reviewers offered a range of praise for the organizer’s flexibility and looks. “Love that I could arrange it how I wanted to fit best in our drawer.” – H

“Super adorable and sturdy. I was surprised that it’s not attached together, it is four separate containers. This adds to the versatility and makes it easier to accommodate any space.” – Mom of 4

“The simple design combines style and functionality. The compartments are perfectly sized to fit an assortment of bags, from snack to gallon sizes. It’s a great purchase if you’re looking to organize your kitchen efficiently without breaking the bank.” – Southern Swan

“A look that’s nicer than the boxes they come in and, frankly, lower than those boxes. I feel they are sturdy and should hold up for everyday use.” – ShopMom

“Absolutely love this! Laid them out in a drawer and it is so practical and helps stay organized.” – Bird feed

Beyond Brightroom, the HuffPost Home & Living roundup includes other Target staples that have gained attention for kitchen and pantry organizing. A Rubbermaid Brilliance 10-piece set is highlighted for its ultra-clear, BPA-free plastic that claims leakproof performance, with five bases and five lids in a range of sizes.

Other organizers cited include a stackable pantry basket with wooden handles that is easy to move, a stoneware oil jar with a wood-accented drizzling spout, a two-tiered organizer with a slide-out basket, and a vertical storage rack to separate baking sheets, cutting boards, and pans from the counter. A magnetically clinging bag clips set offers your chips and snacks a tidy, reusable closure; a large glass jar stores dry goods in a consistent, pantry-ready way; an in-drawer knife block keeps blades protected and accessible; an open-storage caddy offers an airy option for baggies; a lazy Susan spice rack, a cabinet-mounted rack, and a cookbook or tablet stand round out the lineup.

The kit of options reflects a broader push among shoppers toward accessible, stylish home storage that doesn’t require permanent installation or expensive renovations. The modular nature of many pieces means drawers can be reconfigured as needs change, from organizing lunch-box components to separating baking sheets and cutting boards from counter clutter.

In essence, the trend around Target’s bag organizers and related storage products speaks to a broader household shift: prioritizing practical, modular solutions that can be customized to fit individual spaces. For many households, the payoff is immediate—refilled bags slide in and out through wide openings, drawers look organized instead of chaotic, and shelves no longer resemble a mismatched maze of containers. The Brightroom bamboo organizer is often cited as the flagship example, but it sits within a broader ecosystem of affordable, stylish storage options that consumers are increasingly seeking out.

As homes continue to balance form and function, these organizers offer a straightforward path to calmer, more efficient kitchens. They are part of a growing set of products designed to make everyday tasks easier—whether that means avoiding a cascade of plastic boxes or keeping the pantry visually tidy. In that sense, the Target storage lineup mirrors a wider cultural moment: people aiming to reclaim small, daily spaces with simple, well-made tools that deliver tangible order without complicating life.
