Turn a Basic Cart into a Mobile Office with These Storage Hacks

When the COVID-19 pandemic started in 2020, many of us started working from home, which required some creativity to craft the perfect office space. If you are still lugging your office equipment around your home, this mobile cart is a dream come true. Using upgrades and smart storage hacks, any basic rolling cart can be transformed into a moveable workstation. Optimize your rolling cart by adding what you need and leaving out what you don't. Sitting at your desk all day is a thing of the past with this mobile office cart that will become your new work best friend.

Transform a basic metal utility cart into a hardworking portable office with a few effortless add-ons. A hanging caddy keeps chargers, pens, and sticky notes within reach, while a tablet stand sets up a second screen. Magnetic canisters, clear bins, and a portable scanner mean you'll have all you need to make your nine-to-five (or five-to-nine) run smoothly.

Keep cord clutter at bay with zip ties. Secure a power strip to the side of the cart with removable hook-and-loop strips, then tie down cords inconspicuously along the railing of the cart for easy access to other supplies.

Keep often-used documents at the ready when you store them in a plate rack on your cart's top. Constructed from solid maple, it features four slots for filing important paperwork.

At just over 2 inches tall, this low-profile printer is ideal for on-the-go printing. It operates wirelessly with a PC, laptop, or smart device—and its cable connections are fixed to one side to save space and sanity.

Feeling peckish while you're on a deadline? A dedicated snack bin means you won't even have to leave your workstation to fuel up. Stock a bin or basket with shelf-stable treats that help fuel concentration.
