The Best Outdoor Storage Solutions for Your Backyard

This all-weather bench is so cute that few people would ever guess that it doubles as a deck box. Up top, a traditional back and gently-sloped arms provide comfortable seating for guests, while down below, a hollow base makes room for outdoor cushions, throw blankets, lawn games and more. You can also shop the bench in a rich espresso or charcoal finish.

Clutter? We don't know her thanks to this gorgeous rectangular coffee table.

Hosting's a breeze when you have this outdoor console cabinet/table. The structure is crafted from sturdy acacia wood and boasts a generous top, open middle shelf and large storage cabinet.

How's this for sneaky storage? Encourage your guests to sit, sip and stay awhile with this storage bin that doubles as a tray table.

For larger floats and rafts, try this clever pool caddy. The stand essentially keeps floats out of the way while they air-dry and features floor slats to help organize the items.

Now, this is what we call poolside service. Free up the space around your lounge chairs by opting for this two-in-one side table. The sturdy Pacific Cool Bar is made from all-weather resin and has a flat top for sunglasses and books, plus a hidden cooler for drinks.

We love the slim structure because it can fit virtually anywhere in the backyard, and it offers multiple storage solutions for watering cans, planters, bags of fertilizer, etc. The bench also boasts hooks for hand tools and a vast work table.

Tired of tripping over the hose? Give it a permanent (and pretty stylish) home in this faux planter.

The base includes a barely noticeable port for easy access and use, as well.
