Under Bed Storage Ideas

Hi! I'm struggling with organizing our under bed storage area. Right now we just have bins but we put all of our clothing in there and having to sort through is a pain! We are trying to find ways to create expanding storage or storage that lifts and/or expands as you raise the bed. Any ideas? Pictures?

  • Where did you find the matching cabinet doors? I would love to do that in ours.
  • JMO but under the bed is the last place we'd use for storage as it's just so inconvenient to get to, especially if you have to lift the bed platform to access it. I've solved that in several trailers we've owned including our current Coachmen by installing cabinet doors on the end of the bed platform, eliminating the need to lift the platform itself.



    We do find this area convenient for storing a couple of empty 7 gal grey water Aquatainers, spare tent and bedding for one of our sons who occasionally joins us, and a laundry basket for dirty laundry. For bulky items we find this ottoman quite handy as it also serves nicely as a foot rest when sitting on the sofa.
