storage drawer

Pull-out storage box

A storage drawer is a compartment that slides in and out of a cabinet, desk, or other furniture, used for keeping items organized and out of sight.

The term emphasizes the drawer's function—holding things for later use—rather than its contents: The kitchen has a storage drawer for utensils, She keeps extra blankets in the storage drawer under the bed.
