Moving into a dorm room can be a serious struggle, especially when you want your tiny space to be cute, comfy, and organized. On top of acquiring the usual dorm-room essentials (comforter, lamp, shower caddy, mini fridge, etc.), you have to figure out how to make it all fit without sacrificing your dream dorm-room aesthetic. While your dorm room likely comes with some places to store and organize clothes (think: a dresser and closet) an often overlooked to-do is finding a place to store all your food. (Meal plans and dining halls are great, but sometimes you just want to eat some ramen or popcorn in bed.)
We’re here to help you wrangle your impressive food and snack supply so that you maximize the limited space you do have and don’t attract any unwelcome visitors. Ahead, we’ve rounded up some genius food-storage ideas and shoppable snack organizers that’ll do the hard work for you. From clever can dispensers to airtight dorm-room food-storage bins (to keep any bugs or critters out), these picks will — in the words of Will Ferrell — leave you with so much more room for activities. College, here you come.
