Keep your dildos clean, safe, and ready for your next fantasy session.

After an intense session exploring your G-spot, P-spot—or maybe both—with your favorite fantasy dildo, your toy deserves proper care. So, what’s the best way to store your silicone sex toys to keep them clean, discreet, and in excellent condition?

At Mr. Hankey’s Toys, we craft premium, platinum-cured silicone dildos built for bold play. But even the most durable dildo needs the right storage strategy. Whether you're rocking a massive dildo, a realistic cock, or a wild dragon dong, here’s everything you need to know to store your sex toys safely and hygienically.

Prep Before You Store

Clean It Thoroughly

Never toss your toy aside after use. Give it proper cleaning first using one of these safe methods:

  • Wash with warm water and plain soap or mild dish detergent
  • Never use dangerous chemicals
  • Always be sure to rinse off any soap or detergent residue fully

After cleaning, air-dry for 15–20 minutes, then pat dry with a microfiber cloth. Never store toys while damp.

Inspect Your Toy

Check for cracks, tears, or damage. Retiring a worn-out dildo is better than risking irritation or injury. If it’s past its prime, upgrade to something fresh (like that cyclops dildo you’ve been eyeing).

Best Storage Solutions for Silicone Toys

Do not bend, pinch, or store products in a manner that may deform or otherwise damage them. Do not store the product in contact with any other sexual aids to avoid cross-contamination or adverse reactions to the material of the product.

Cloth or Satin Bags

Affordable and practical, cloth storage bags protect against dust and dirt. Choose natural materials like cotton, satin, or silk—avoid plastic or vinyl, which can degrade silicone.

Storage Boxes

Go a step further with a hard case or locking box. For extra safety and privacy:

  • Combine with a cloth bag inside the box
  • Choose water-resistant, crush-proof models
  • Bonus: Some come with combination locks!

Furniture & Hidden Compartments

Need to store your toy discreetly? Use:

  • Stackable containers under the bed
  • Ottomans, benches, or nightstands with hidden storage
  • Lidded toy chests are perfect for giant dildos and BDSM gear

Display Cases & Stands

Want to show off your silicone masterpiece? Use a sex toy stand or display case. Ideal for dungeons, parties, or just admiring your collection (hey, no shame in silicone art).

Storage Tips for Long-Term Pleasure

Size Matters

Measure your toy before buying storage. Oversized toys need oversized solutions—shop accordingly.

Keep it Cool and Dry

Avoid humid or hot areas, such as bathrooms or attics. Heat can cause silicone to deform, and moisture can encourage bacterial growth. Store in a room that’s dry and cool—room temp or colder is ideal.

Remove Batteries & Bundle Accessories

If your toy has a battery or app component, remove the batteries before storing. For non-battery toys, store accessories like chargers and Vac-U-Lock adapters together to avoid losing them.

Don’t Let Toys Touch

Silicone toys can react with other materials. Even though Mr. Hankey’s Toys are made from high-grade platinum-cured silicone that won’t degrade from contact, it’s still good hygiene to store toys individually, especially if you mix brands or materials.

Mr. Hankey’s Final Dirty Thoughts

Proper sex toy storage is about more than discretion—it protects your health, prolongs the toy’s life, and makes your next session smoother. With just a few steps, your dildo will stay clean, functional, and ready to deliver fantasy-level satisfaction.
