Looks like they have a location in Atlanta - why not take a road trip one weekend soon? (About a four hour drive). Welcome to Charlotte - we aren't perfect, but we are pleasant

There is a similiar type of store...I cannot for the life of me remember the name. However, it is located over on Pineville-Matthews Rd & Carmel...in the plaza where The Fresh Market is located. It is right next to The Party Store.

It's called Space Savers, they have a websiter here:
Space Savers - Closet Organizers - Kitchen, Bathroom, Garage

Container store is the store I miss the most in Charlotte also! Space savers might have some of what you need, but it is not the nirvana for Type A's that is the Container store - it is cluttered and unorganized and sells stuff you can buy at Walmart. We have had the in-laws pick up Elfa orders in Atlanta and bring it up - nice consolation prize for a visit! Good luck...

IKEA has a lot of stuff to "organize your life", does it not?

I don't like the Space Savers store as much as the Container Store. It's been awhile since I've been to a Container Store, but if I remember correctly it is much larger and has many more organizational items that the Space Saver store in Carmel Commons. You might find what you need there though!

I like the Container Store and just moved back from Chicago. Charlotte will probably get one eventually. I would love to see it in the old Home Depot Design Center in Midtown!

FYI - I was stuck in Indiana traffic too. Did they get all of the stimulus funds??? haha.

Thank you so much!!!

I will check them out this weekend!

at this point any place will do!
