1. Hook a Dollar Tree basket onto a carabiner and secure to the back of a seat. This gives your kids a convenient place to put their drinks, snacks, and toys that is easy to reach and keeps the seats and floors clean of clutter.

2. Keep a deeper basket upfront. Use a command Velcro tab to keep it in place. This is a great way to store wipes, water, cell phone. Then, thanks to the handles, easily carry it in and out of the car.

3. Crumbs and coins stuck in between two seats. Use a shoehorn, cut the end off, and slide it snuggly in between the two seats. This catches crumbs and coins and makes it much easier to clean.

4. Found in the teacher’s section are these incredibly handy pocket charts. They open up to house multiple pockets, perfect for colored pencils, books, tablets, and snacks.

5. Dollar tree containers make convenient storage bins for the car truck or van. Use craft clampers to connect them to help keep necessary stuff organized. Trouble with garbage can tipping over? Put it in one of the storage bins to help it stay in place.

6. Use a carabiner to hang a small a broom and dust pan. Use this to quickly sweep up crumbs and messes. Hang it back up and out of the way for the next mess.

7. Dollar tree garbage cans are small enough for your vehicle, but large enough for kid's meal leftovers. Be sure to line it with dollar tree trash liners for easy cleanup. Pro-tip, keep the liners at the bottom of the garbage can so it is always where you need it, when you need it.

8. Dollar tree diapers wipes are the perfect size to have in your car. They are great for sticky fingers and faces. And for quick clean-ups when spills happen. The trouble is, these pesky tabs don’t stick well, leaving the diapers to dry out. Solve this by putting them in pencil bags, found in the teacher department. These cute and stylish bags are just the right size for diaper wipes, and they zip close to keep the diaper wipes wet and ready for your next mess.

9. Did you know they sell DVD’s at dollar tree? While they may not be well-known movies, the cases are just right. Use colored paper to line the inside of the case. Cut tabs ¼ inch deep. Add paper on the left side. Add extra bling by using Adhesive diamond wrap on the outside to give it some extra bling.

10. Armor All is great for the car interior and windows, but the bottles are too big to store in the car. Dollar tree caries portable sized Armor All window and leather cleaner. While you're at it, pick up microfiber cloths, they come in packs of 4. Store them conveniently in Dollar tree zipper binder pouch and pull them out when waiting in carpools lines to polish your interior and shine your windows.

11. Sponge brushes are great for painting, but they are also great to dust the small crevices in your car. Don’t forget the vents. They are the perfect size to fit in each slot.

13. Cup holders are a convenient place for cups, but they often end up getting messy with spills and the trouble is, they are tough to clean. Use dollar tree cupcake dishes inside your cup holders. When there’s a spill, they can easily be removed for a quick clean up .

14. Use an Expandable file folder to organize your gift cards and coupons. You can save money by having your coupons at your fingertips when you need them. The file folders come in lots of different colors and design It fits conveniently into the side of your car door.
