10 Car Trunk Organizer DIY Ideas
Car Trunk Organizer DIY Ideas
Car trunk is a large storage space but it’s kinda like a box. There’s no special compartments or shelves. You just throw everything in it and hear your things knock on each other every time you make a turn. Can’t imagine what’s gonna happen to the chicken eggs at the back. So here, we have compiled some great ideas to turn your ordinary car trunk into a much more organized compartment. Let’s go!
1. Bungee Cord
Tired of your groceries knocking around in every corner you take? Install a bungee cord across the car trunk! It has a detachable hook at the back so you can take it off and slot it through the handle of the grocery bags. It’s a great solution to those who does weekly shopping.
2. Shelf Storage
A shelf is always useful even in the car only if there’s a way to install it. This is one great solution to do just that! With a little bit of creativity, you can DIY this easily.
3. Hanging Bag
Put a hanging bag behind the back row seat to make use of the vertical storage space. It may not be able to store big items but it’s good enough for items like deodorizing sprays, scrap towels and jumping ropes.

4. Shower Caddy
Here’s another great way to make full use of the vertical space available at the back of your car seat. The best part is that it doesn’t cost much. It’s probably cheaper than the hanging bag. All you need to do is to hang your shower caddy at the back of the car. Shower caddy often comes with a lot of small compartment bags. You can store various small items like sunblock, rain gear and trash bags easily.
5. Ball Claw
This is one specific storage for sportsman. It might be better to install this at the side of the car. That way, when you’re not using it to hold a ball, it can be used as a normal hook to hang your shopping bag.
6. Wire Rack
Stuff an entire mini wire rack into the back of your car for the ultimate storage. It’s all about finding the rack with the right size. It’s probably a good idea to install a strap for the upper shelf to hold the things from toppling down when you open the car trunk.
7. Plastic Drawers
If you can’t find the right wire rack size, you can try and find plastic drawers instead! Again, it’s about finding the right size. Stacking them up should be enough to secure them in place. Accessing your items becomes super easy as you just need to slide the drawer out. The idea above inspired by some dude who wanted to go for a camping trip. That explains all the party essentials they have back there. Remember not to stack them too high till it blocks your rear view mirror. The last thing we want is to get pulled over by the police.

8. Laundry Basket
Laundry basket makes good trunk organizers. It’s also applicable in camping trips. You can just throw all your dirty laundry into the basket. When you got back home, just take the laundry basket out with you.
9. Trunk Roof
A bungie cord is also an amazing item to be installed on the trunk roof. It’s good enough to hold vests and jackets.
10. Pop Up Shelf
This is an alternative idea to get a trunk shelf if you have lots of time to spare. It is designed to be space-conscious. It lays down on the floor of the trunk without taking much space. When you need more storage space, simply pop it up into a shelf.
