We had batteries in five different spots in our house. It all started when we moved here, we had batteries in a couple different bins that were shoved in different closets. We never found a good spot for them and it seems like they’ve multiplied over the past couple years!
I’m so excited to finally have them all in one place so we know where to look and exactly what we have on hand. This battery storage container was perfect for the job. It’s clear and has a hinged lid so I can see what’s in there and stack it with other containers.

How to organize batteries
Here are the five simple steps to follow so that you know what batteries you have and where to find them.
Step 1: Gather All of your batteries
As I mentioned, I had batteries in FIVE different spots in my house. That makes it so hard to keep track of your inventory! Gather them all up in one location to get started.


Step 2: Throw out Packaging
Take the batteries out of their packaging. It’s bulky and takes up unnecessary space. If you have some tiny or unique batteries that you want to remember what they are, you can cut out the important part of the package label and tape it to the bottom of your storage bin.
Step 3: Sort by battery type
Now that everything is consolidated, sort the batteries into their various sizes.
Step 4: Organize them in a clear container
This nifty container by iDesign is perfect for the job! It’s clear, has a hinged lid, and the dividers that are great for lining up batteries. It’s the same style as the containers I’ve used for my craft supplies that work so well!


Step 5: Designate a home for your batteries
Store this container somewhere that’s easy to access and that makes sense in your home, so you always know where to go when you need a battery. Just make sure it’s stored in a safe spot that’s well out of reach of little kids!
