As practical as laundry baskets may be, let's be real: a lot of them are not designed with style in mind. I realized this recently while shopping out a new laundry hamper for my own apartment. I went into the experience open-minded and willing to try any type of product — from collapsible laundry baskets to soft laundry bags and even laundry bins with wheels that would remove the hassle of having to manually carry my dirty clothes to and from the washer. What I discovered was a variety of functional options that albeit practical, were bound to stick out like an eyesore in my home because of how painfully unstylish they were.
While I eventually found my match, the process showed me just how serious of a gap there is in the market for stylish laundry baskets that can blend into the design aesthetic of your home — and, of course, help to streamline your weekly laundry duties too. Inspired by my recent shopping spree, I scoured the internet in search of the best laundry baskets that you can buy online. From cute designs for your closet or bathroom to a rolling option that you can easily wheel from room to room, these selects are perfect for every home size (including dorm rooms or apartments), personal style, and even budget. Keep reading to shop my picks.

1 Best Laundry Basket With Handles
StorageRight Large Collapsible Laundry Hamper ($12, originally $17)
This fabric laundry basket from Amazon is both stylish and useful. Despite its soft composition, the product boasts an iron wire frame that'll help to hold its structure over time. Plus, with easy-to-grab handles, transporting your laundry to and from the washing machine will be a total breeze.
2 Best Rolling Laundry Basket
Yamazaki Home Rolling Wire Basket ($98)
The struggle of getting backed up on laundry and then having to lug large bins of clothes around your dorm building (or college campus, for off-site laundry rooms), is all too real. Fortunately, rolling laundry baskets help to solve this problem as they have wheels on the bottom of each bin. You'll love the look and practicality of this wired laundry basket thanks to its sleek and modern design.
3 Best Collapsible Laundry Hamper
Handy Laundry Collapsible Mesh Foldable Hamper ($40)
As simplistic as they may be, collapsible laundry hampers are generational household staples for a reason — they hold up well over time, feature a practical design that makes it easy to carry large bundles of clothes, and also double as practical space-saving options courtesy of their foldable design.
4 Best Floating Laundry Basket
Bamboo Wall-Mounted Laundry Hamper ($136, originally $160)
If you live in a dorm room or small apartment and are running out of floor space, consider a floating laundry basket like this sleek piece from West Elm. It's space saving, and we especially love the bottom rack for hanging clothes. The design pulls out, giving you easy access to your laundry. Plus, it's easy to mount, so you can hang it up on your wall as soon as you get it.
5 Best Laundry Basket With a Lid
Container Store Poppin Laundry Hamper ($70)
Dirty clothes are a common occurrence in any household, but that doesn't necessarily mean you want them laying around your closet or out in the open for all to see. This modern laundry basket is a great buy because it boasts a deep design that'll hold plenty of clothes, along with a lid that conveniently sits on top and conceals anything inside.
6 Best Durable Laundry Bin
Brabantia Bo Laundry Hamper ($188-$247)
To help ensure you won't have to buy a new laundry basket every few years, opt for a more durable model like this steel version from West Elm. The bin features a cotton laundry bag on the inside that's easy to remove and transport. Plus, it boasts a corrosion resistant coating that makes it ideal for placement in the bathroom or any other damp spaces in your home.
7 Best Stylish Laundry Basket
The Citizenry Bolga Storage Basket ($199)
This woven storage basket from The Citizenry proves that not all laundry hampers are made the same — and they definitely don't have to be an eyesore in your home either. Available in two different sizes, this handmade laundry basket is handcrafted in a fair-trade environment by master artisans in Ghana.
8 Best Laundry Basket With Compartments
Pottery Barn Charleston Handwoven Seagrass Sorting Basket ($79, originally $99)
Want something that doesn't even look like a hamper? Go for this modern sorting basket from Pottery Barn. The product boasts a compact design that's incredibly versatile and sleek, meaning you can put it just about anywhere in your home. Plus, with built-in compartments, you can organize your laundry into separate spaces before and after washing.
9 Best Fabric Laundry Bag
H&M Cotton Twill Laundry Bag ($27)
Perhaps you don't have enough floor space for a proper plastic hamper or structured bin. If that's the case, you might be better off investing in something more flexible like a fabric laundry basket. I love this laundry bag's cool, neutral design, plus the fact that it has a sewn-in drawstring closure.
10 Best Mobile Laundry Hamper
Steele Canvas Basket Corp. Medium Mobile Canvas Bin ($198)
The large size of this mobile laundry hamper makes it great for those who are looking to transport multiple loads of laundry at once. The model features 360-degree wheels which are designed to move around any space with ease — even tight corners of your dorm or apartment building.
