The Correct Unfolding Technique:

To start off on the right foot, it's crucial to follow the proper unfolding procedure. Don't underestimate the instructions! Before you start using your CleverMade bins, ensure they are fully open and locked into place. Listen for the satisfying "click" as each of the three tabs locks in, signaling that the crate is secure and ready for use. This step not only ensures proper functionality but also prevents accidental damage. Check out our reel on How to Properly Open and Collapse Your CleverMade Storage Bins!

Respect Weight Capacities:

Every CleverMade bin, basket, and crate comes with a specified weight capacity. It's essential to adhere to these limits to maintain the longevity and performance of the product. Avoid overloading them beyond their recommended weight, as doing so can compromise the structural integrity and cause items to spill out. Remember, weight limits exist for your safety and the durability of your storage solution.

Optimal Stacking and Storage:

One of the remarkable features of CleverMade storage items is their nesting capability, making them perfect for stacking. You can safely stack up to three full bins high. When not in use, take advantage of their collapsible nature to store them conveniently in compact spaces. Just ensure there's enough room for the plastic to maintain its form without being under pressure or at risk of getting scratched.

Stick to Their Purpose:

CleverMade storage items are designed to simplify your life, whether it's for storage, moving, or grocery shopping. However, it's important to use them as intended. These items are not meant for standing or sitting on, as they may not provide the necessary stability. If you're unsure about proper use, feel free to reach out for guidance to ensure your safety and the longevity of your items.

Embrace Easy Cleaning:

The beauty of CleverMade bins, baskets, and crates lies in their plastic construction, which makes cleaning a breeze. You can wipe them down with disinfecting wipes, a damp towel, or even hose them off if needed. Just remember to let them fully dry before collapsing or filling them with your belongings to avoid any moisture-related issues.

By following these simple care instructions, you can extend the lifespan of your CleverMade collapsible storage bins, baskets, and crates. Treat them right, and they'll continue to make your life easier and more organized for years to come. So go ahead, embrace the magic of CleverMade and experience the long-term benefits of these fantastic storage solutions. Happy organizing!
