Utility carts & portable kitchen islands

More countertop space, more storage space – who couldn’t use a little more of both? Our selection of kitchen islands and carts can give you the extra space you need without the expense of a remodel. Choose one with wheels for a mobile solution you can roll anywhere you need it.

Slim space? Slim budget? Slim cart.

VESKEN cart is an affordable storage hero that gives you additional, flexible organization in the kitchen. Thanks to its wheels and slim dimensions, it’s easy to pull out of a nook or corner when you need it and slide away when you don’t.

Discover the versatility of utility carts

IKEA utility carts are celebrated for their functional designs and versatility. Available in a range of sizes, colors, and materials, these carts can seamlessly fit into any space. Whether you need extra storage in the kitchen, organization in the bathroom, a mobile solution for the living room, or a practical addition to your office, IKEA utility carts have you covered.

How to organize your utility cart

Maximize the efficiency of your kitchen utility cart by utilizing every inch of space. Make the most of the cart’s walls by adding hooks or magnetic strips to hang items like utensils, kitchen tools, or dish towels. This keeps frequently used items within easy reach and frees up valuable surface space. Use baskets, boxes, or containers to separate and secure items. Clear containers are especially beneficial as they allow for easy visibility of contents, making it simple to find what you need at a glance. To maximize vertical space, consider stacking containers or using tiered shelving. This not only keeps your cart organized but also adds a visually appealing element to your storage solution.

Organize your cart by grouping similar items based on their use or purpose. For instance, designate one section for cleaning supplies, another for art supplies, and a separate area for tools. This method prevents clutter and makes it easier to find what you need. Whether you opt for a small, handheld kitchen cart for easy maneuverability or a larger industrial-sized model, their mobility and versatility make them ideal for various storage and transport needs.
