For most Australian households setting up a new fridge, the Glass Meal Prep Containers (10-Pack) at around $45 is the right first buy. Glass stains less than plastic (no tomato-sauce orange residue after 6 months), microwaves safely (no plastic-to-food chemical transfer), goes dishwasher + freezer + oven safe across the temperature range, and a 10-pack handles a typical week of leftovers + meal-prep portions. The single appliance most-likely to cut household food waste by 30%+ in the first month of use, leftovers people actually see and label get eaten, not forgotten.
Complement with Clear Fridge Storage Bins (Set of 6) at about $35. Six clear bins zoned by content (produce / dairy / leftovers / drinks / snacks / overflow) eliminate the "lost in the back" pattern that causes most fridge food waste. Pull out the bin, see what's there, restock or use up. The bins also let you pull a whole zone out at once when cleaning, reduces fridge-cleaning time from 45 minutes to 10. Match the bin depth to your fridge interior dimensions before buying.
Round it out with the Fridge Lazy Susan Turntable at about $19, placed on the top shelf for condiments + jars. The mid-shelf top-back corner is the single most "lost food" zone in any fridge, and a turntable converts that dead space into rotating-access storage. At $19 it's the highest-ROI organisational tool you'll buy this year. Buy two if you have a deep US-style French door fridge.
One honest limitation: these three are the organisation layer ON TOP of the fridge, not the fridge itself. The actual fridge choice (capacity, energy rating, layout) is covered in our best fridge guide, which is Sheridan-class on Amazon AU (heritage brands distribute through Appliances Online / The Good Guys / Harvey Norman with the disclosure paragraph in that article). The picks above are the day-one organisational layer that makes whatever fridge you bought actually function as a non-chaotic food-storage system.
