Before “shelfies” became an Instagram phenomenon, it’s unlikely you gave much thought to how you stocked your bathroom cabinet. But as social media became a way to show off carefully curated displays of your daily essentials, organizing the most overlooked parts of a home has become as important to some as styling a perfectly arranged coffee table.

The latest frontier in this trend? Your fridge. My feeds are currently flooded with videos showing how to maximize even the tiniest bit of refrigerator real estate—and I’m not the only one. The hashtag #fridgeorganization has over 107K videos on Instagram and organizational fridge vids on TikTok are generating millions of views. After far too much time spent scrolling through this particular corner of the internet, one thing is clear: Functionality and aesthetics can coexist. From sleek bins to stackable trays, these clever solutions not only optimize storage but also add a touch of style to an area of the kitchen that often turns into a dumping ground for leftovers and forgotten condiments.

Whether you’re a meal-prep pro or just looking to make the most of every corner, the right tools can turn your fridge’s top shelf into a space to admire.

If your fridge’s top shelf lacks the depth to store much on top of it, these under-shelf drawers are a genius way to add more room. The L-shaped hooks can be adjusted to fit around most standard-size shelves, and the drawers are made from a BPA-free, food-grade material that won’t absorb smells. They come in three different sizes (M, L, and XL), so you can customize your design based on space and need.

Another under-shelf organizational option, this egg drawer is designed with a curved bottom to perfectly cradle up to 21 eggs. It’s made from a slanted, non-toxic plastic so that as you remove eggs from the front, ones from the back will automatically roll forward to take their place. Plus the clear container makes it easier to see when you’re running low compared to keeping them in their carton; that way you never run out unexpectedly.

This two-tier egg dispenser is like bunk beds for your favorite breakfast protein. It’s also the item that sent me down the rabbit hole that is fridge top-shelf organization on Instagram. Not only is it adorable, but it’s incredibly functional. Its stacked design saves you space, and the way it uses gravity to gently feed eggs from top to bottom is super satisfying to watch—you may find yourself eating more eggs just to experience it.

Simple Houseware

Amazon

As with your eggs, removing canned drinks from their original cardboard packaging is an easy way to up their aesthetic appeal instantly. These clear bins come in both standard and skinny options, so you can proudly store your prebiotic sodas and other functional bevs while also easily keeping stock of what you have on hand.

Made in Holland, these stackable shallow containers click together like Legos, creating airtight seals that will keep the scent of smelly cheeses from escaping. They’re an ideal addition to the fridge of any foodie who loves a good charcuterie board because the brand specifically recommends them for storing thin sliced meats and the aforementioned dairy products.

When it comes to fridge organization, there’s nothing more disheveled-looking than a bunch of veggies sitting around in produce bags taking up precious space and making it hard to see what’s fresh. Why not swap ’em out for these stackable bins? They come in different sizes so you can mix and match until you’ve found the configuration that best suits your storage needs. Each bin also features its own pullout drawer, which is ideal for stationary shelving.

Like a bike rack…but for yogurt cups; this fridge organizer can stick to the ceiling or sides of your fridge and free up precious shelf space. It’s designed to hold standard yogurt cups with a 3.75-inch-diameter lid and can fit up to four at a time for easy access when you’re looking for a quick-grab breakfast or snack option on the go.

Puricon

Recreate the grocery store experience at home with this spring-loaded drink dispenser. As you remove a bottle, can, or carton from the front, it automatically pushes the remaining drinks forward to replace it. It comes in options with up to six rows, but the two- or three-row versions feel ideally suited for a fridge top shelf. It’s also fully adjustable so it can hold different sizes of your fave coconut waters and cold brew.

OXO

Amazon

Depending on clearance, these adjustable risers can help you double up on storage space, kinda like a vertical car park. It comes in five height settings for a custom fit, and the grippy feet ensure it stays put once you’ve got it in place.

Few things are as frustrating, when it comes to fridges, as having to take everything off a shelf just to find the jar of almond butter that got pushed to the back. Enter: the lazy Susan. We used to keep one of these on the table when I was a kid, and it took picking condiments for dinner to the next level of fun. In your fridge, it’ll help make sure all those meal-making sauces, spreads, and dips are always at your fingertips.
