Bed Bath & Beyond is making a comeback thanks to a North Texas company — sort of. The Container Store, headquartered in Coppell, is merging 98 of its nationwide stores with the once-mighty home goods chain.

On April 6, Bed Bath & Beyond entered into a merger agreement to purchase The Container Store for $150 million. A release says combining the two concepts’ goods will “better serve how customers live today.”

In recent years, both brands have been struggling as part of the “retail apocalypse” of big box stores. In December 2024, The Container Store filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy without shedding any stores. Bed Bath & Beyond, meanwhile, collapsed in summer 2023. After filing for Chapter 11, it liquidated all of its U.S. stores.

According to the release, starting in May, select locations — including those across North Texas — will begin transitioning into a combined "Container Store + Bed Bath & Beyond" format. The updated concept aims to blend the Container Store’s signature organizing systems and in-home services with a broader assortment of home goods, furnishings, and everyday essentials.

To prepare for the phased integration of Bed Bath & Beyond products in stores, The Container Store will start streamlining its offerings, cutting around 30 percent of its stock. Select stores will be offering clearance prices on the items starting Friday, April 24. The Container Store will also be opening an hour early on April 25-26, giving early birds an extra 5 percent discount.

“This is a reset with purpose,” said Jen Pape, senior vice president of stores at The Container Store, in a release. “We are actively reshaping our stores to make room for what’s next. By streamlining select categories today, we’re creating the space and flexibility needed to introduce Bed Bath & Beyond products and deliver a more complete home experience for our customers.”
