Today, I went on a field trip! Along with 50 other professional organizers, I attended a special event organized by the NAPO-WDC Board of Directors. Our host was the Container Store located in Arlington, VA and they were awesome!

Store Mangagers Kevin & Erin started out by giving us the history of the Container Store. Did you know that they’re celebrating their 30th anniversary? Did you also know that they offer a 30% discount every January on all their Elfa products? That’s huge!

Kevin & Erin also gave us a tour and showed us some new eco-friendly organizing products. Check them out below…

We got a demonstration on how to install their famous Elfa closet system and saw how simple it was to put together their free-standing units. The demo also included their new line, Elfa Utlity, which is a nice option for your garage.

We were all grateful for the time that the Container Store staff took to make us feel welcome. They are very focused on customer service and are super friendly. You’ll see for yourself when you visit the store. If you have question, they are always happy to help.

It was an awesome afternoon and I’m sure that we all walked away thinking “I Love the Container Store!” Take a look at how happy we were…

That’s me with Kim Oser, NAPO-WDC Corporate
