Home Depot just released a mini version of its classic yellow and black HDX storage tote and the internet has gone wild.
The HDX 6.5-quart storage tote, priced at just $2.50 in-store, is starting to make waves, especially on TikTok, where organizers and DIYers are already sharing creative uses for the compact bin.
This small-format storage solution is available both in-store and online. Online shoppers will see a $2.99 delivery fee, bringing the total to $5.49, but that hasn’t slowed down interest. With a footprint similar to a shoebox, the mini tote is a scaled-down version of the HDX totes that usually go on sale for Black Friday.
Home Depot's New Viral Storage Bin Costs $2.50 and Its Selling Out
The launch comes nearly six months after Lowe’s debuted a mini version of their 5-gallon bucket, which quickly became a viral hit. That product’s popularity demonstrated the strong appeal of scaled-down utility gear — and now, Home Depot seems to be tapping into that same energy with a miniature take on its rugged HDX tote.
The mini version keeps the signature yellow lid and black base, echoing the look of its full-size counterpart. While the full-size totes are typically used for garage storage or heavy-duty organizing, the mini version opens the door to new, smaller-scale uses — from craft storage to pantry organization.
Where to Find the HDX Mini Storage Tote
We’ve spotted the HDX mini totes in the storage bin aisle at several Home Depot locations. If you’re using the Home Depot app, clicking the storage tote link should show the exact aisle and bay where it's stocked at your local store. Keep in mind, availability can vary by location, and some stores have already reported limited stock.
No Sales (Yet), But Plenty of Buzz
As of now, there are no official promotions or discounts on the HDX mini totes, but at $2.50, they’re already priced low compared to similar items. While it’s unclear whether this is a permanent product addition or a limited drop, the early response online suggests they could become a regular favorite — much like their full-sized counterpart.
Why It Matters
It’s always interesting to see how retailers respond to viral trends — especially when they involve everyday, utilitarian products like storage bins. We'll keep an eye out for more miniature products at our favorite stores, like Home Depot, Lowe's, and Target.
