To help the newest wave of college students get settled into their dorms, we've partnered with collegiate retailer Follett Higher Education to offer pop-up storage and organization stores in three dozen Follett campus bookstores. Thirty-six of their store locations--spread across the country from California to Connecticut--currently carry college essentials from our assortment like best-selling storage bins and organizers, multi-purpose 3-tier carts, cleaning and laundry essentials, table lamps, cordless vacuums, and more.
"Our innovative partnership with The Container Store helps us expand on our mission to inspire, enable, and celebrate the academic journey by ensuring students have the dorm essentials they need to feel prepared," says Jeremy Bare, Follett Higher Education's Chief Merchant. "Whether students need last-minute items for their dorm room or do not have access to off-campus retail options, our partnership enhances the collegiate experience by anticipating what students want to help them feel organized and making it as simple as possible to deliver the items they need."

"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to bring The Container Store's innovative, space-saving solutions directly to students on campus for the first time through our partnership with Follett," adds Stacey Shively, The Container Store's Chief Merchandising Officer. "Not only do the pop-up shops enable us to get our brand in front of a younger audience, they also expand our reach into markets where we don't have a presence for students to shop our college assortment in person."
