Of all the rooms we can choose to organize, our garage can feel like the most overwhelming – and (comfortingly) things were the same in the Kelce household. Until only recently, the Philadelphia Eagles Center and personality Kylie Kelce had a space affectionately known as a 'Kelce landfill,' where, Jason says, they would 'open the door, throw something in, and close it.' However, everything changed after a visit from The Container Store.
The powerhouse is synonymous with seamless storage solutions, whether we are tidying our kitchen and living space or organizing a garage, as is the case with the Kelce's. They visited their Pennsylvania home with Caitlin Sirianni, owner of NEAT Method Philadelphia, to design a space that works for the young family. And the process started with The Container Store's Garage+ by Elfa organization system.
‘Welcome to our newly transformed garage that was designed, built, and organized by The Container Store,’ the couple share during a tour in the Instagram below. ‘It was a Kelce landfill that you’d open the door, throw something in, and close it. Now it’s a functional space.'
'Without these products, we would not be feeling very good about our garage right now,' Kylie explains. The quality of the products is amazing – the bins are heavy duty, and you can really feel when you open the cabinets and are moving things around that it is sturdy, and we need sturdy.'
When it comes to forward-thinking storage ideas, we could do far worse than following Kelce's lead and investing in the Elfa system. Described by The Container Store as collaborative, bold, and creative', the products feature smart LED lighting, back panels, and solid birch accents (because there's no reason something so functional can't be good-looking, too).
The Garage+ collection, a section of the Elfa system, comprises garage essentials, including these exact plastic bins, some rolling mesh storage containers, and a simple tool holder. We can purchase these components separately (below) or work with an expert to bring them into a custom-designed space. 'The process was so seamless,” Kelce adds in a press release. 'They knew exactly what we needed and pulled it off expertly.'

Now the garage is complete, we wonder which room is next on Kelce's organization list.
'We look forward to taking the Elfa system everywhere in our house. Anywhere that it can fit — basement, closets, anywhere that we need this sort of next-level aesthetic but functional organization, it will be there. I think transforming our basement will be next,' Kylie shares with People. We'll be staying tuned to see how else they use Elfa in their home.
