Hello,

I am currently planning the "wall unit" in the laundry room. It should look like this:

As you can see in the picture, the washing machine and dryer as well as the drawer and a tall cabinet are placed in a niche. (Unfortunately, I couldn't accurately represent the actual plan in the Ikea planner: there are plinths under the washing machine and dryer, and the drawer cabinet has higher legs.)

Anyway, I am already looking for a suitable box for the lower tall drawer. The detergent (powder, without outer packaging ^^) is supposed to go in there. For that, I need a tightly sealing box that ideally makes the most use of the available space in the drawer. Do you have any idea which Ikea box could fit, or is there none and I might have to look elsewhere?

I don’t know of any tall box from Ikea, except these transparent ones in several sizes, which also come with lids. However, I’m asking if you only have one powder detergent for everything? I use liquid detergent, of which I have at least 4 plus Sagrotan as an additive. By the way, the bottles would fit very well in such a drawer.

I always buy a large container of washing powder for whites wholesale. It is then portioned accordingly. For wool and colors, I use liquid detergent, which goes in the top drawer. I don't use more than that; it's completely sufficient for me.

Have you checked the trash bins for Metod? They fit perfectly and there are lids as well. I just don’t know right now if there is one that fills the drawer completely on its own.

Thanks for the tip, yes, I had already looked there, but somehow there is no single solution - only the one with two little buckets. But then the question is whether the lid closes tightly.

I had hoped that there is a suitable clear plastic box in that size at Ikea - but there is still a bit of time, for now I am first laying the tiles
