August means it’s time to go back-to-school shopping. And whether you’re getting your little ones ready for another great year or making sure you have the right dorm room essentials for college, preparing your living space for the hustle and bustle is a must.

Luckily, one of our favorite one-stop shops has everything you need to keep closets, bathrooms, and other areas of your home organized when schedules get busier — and prices start at just $3. For first-time and returning college students, Target’s college shop is your guide to all things small-space living, since it features a whole section dedicated to dorm and apartment storage solutions.

Closets and dresser drawers can get messy real quick, especially when you’re always on the go. The best way to prevent this from happening is by adding storage solutions that give items a place to go even if you’re working with limited space, such as under-bed storage and laundry hampers.

Another closet organizing hack that makes a big difference is these $12 flocked hangers. Each hanger has four bars, allowing you to fit multiple pairs of pants, and they are made from recycled plastic with a velvet coating that keeps clothes in place.

Or make the most of your closet space with hanging organizers that provide bonus shelves or hooks. This $18 two-shelf organizer can be hung on your closest rod and offers ample room to add folded shirts and bottoms as well as a bottom rod to add hanging clothes. It has a near-perfect rating from shoppers who say it’s a “lifesaver in a dorm” and is “very sturdy.”

We also suggest saving your dresser for clothes and adding a storage cart, like this option with fabric bins, or creating your own with a cube organizer shelf and storage bins, to house sports bras, swimsuits, socks, and other undergarments. And keep shoes, bags, and other accessories tidy while maximizing your space with this $10 over-the-door organizer.
