These Space-Saving Solutions from One of Our Favorite Brands Are on Major Discount at Macy’s

This expandable rack has a two-part tray that can slide out to accomodate extra plates only when you need it to. There are steel prongs on one side that you can use to prop plates up, while the other part of the rack lies completely flat to safely hold glassware and other fragile items.

Recycling is important, but if you have the standard bin that sits next to your trash can, you're doing it wrong. This two-in-one unit cuts the occupied space in half by stacking one on top of the other. The stainless-steel containers look sleek and modern, and the lower one slides out for easy emptying. An included odor filter prevents food waste from causing unpleasant scents in your cooking station.

I store my own cutting boards behind my faucet, and they regularly slide out and topple over. Something like this upright cutting board system would be super helpful. With this purchase, you get three plastic and metal boards of different colors, as well as a stand where you can store them. It almost looks like a little filing cabinet! Suffice to say, your cutting boards will remain propped up and out of the way at all times.

Most knife stands hold cutlery vertically and sit on your counter. This isn't a bad design, per se, but this organizer by Joseph Joseph holds double the knives and keeps them out of view. Just insert it into your utensil drawer, place a knife in each slot, and voila! Now you have room for that new blender or coffee maker.

Why stop at knives? Organize all of your cooking and dining utensils with this convenient drawer insert, which features eight different-sized compartments for spoons, forks, and peelers of all lengths. The five smallest pockets on the left hold utensils in such a way that makes it much easier to grab one and go. No more rummaging around to find exactly what you're looking for.

This one is for the tiny studio apartment dwellers for whom finding counter space is a daily struggle. At only 8 inches wide, this draining mat doesn't take up nearly as much real estate as the typical dish rack. And if you just so happen to need more surface area to dry your dishes, the mat can expand up to three times its original size — all you have to do is pull the other panels out. It has ribbed holes and a draining spout, so no moisture builds up.

Amid rolled-up chip bags, misshapen cereal boxes, and way too many boxes of pasta, pantries can get real messy, real fast. Keep non-perishables fresh and easily visible with this transparent container set. You get one tall container, plus two more that you can stack on top of each other to equal the same height. Airtight lids keep the boxes' contents from going stale. It also goes without saying that these containers look much nicer than most food packaging.

By now, it should be clear that Joseph Joseph is the king of cutlery trays. This one has the same slotted design as the previous two, but it'll likely only take up half the width of your drawer. Store dining utensils on its three tiers, and use the rest of the drawer for bulkier cooking tools. At just $12, this purchase is a no-brainer.

Your drawers and countertops are taken care of; now let's focus on the cabinets. This three-tier organizer goes inside, allowing you to stack spices, canned goods, and other ingredients on its roomy shelves. The coolest part, of course, is that this item rotates 360 degrees, so you can place bouillon cubes and other little essentials in its back pockets. Utility at its finest!

Again, it's all about what your cabinets can do for you, and you're missing out if you're not utilizing the space underneath. Solve that issue by hanging these three Tupperware-like containers under a shelf. You can use them for any number of things, from dry goods to extra sauce packets. They can even go inside cabinets if you want to keep them out of view. And, to remove the little tubs, all you have to do is just slide 'em on out.
