Bunk rooms....for storage?

Anyone turn a bunk room into a closet? I just don't know if we would have enough room in TT for clothes, storage, etc. I wondered if getting one with bunk beds in it may help with the storage situation..

From what I have seen, storage for clothes are spartan.

Originally, when we thought that we would use an SUV for TV, I thought that we could store hangups in the TV. But, if we get a truck...that is not possible, so need more storage in the TT.

Unless you get a 5th Wheel, you could still store things in an SUV.

A Van one would more than likely be even better , especially a Cargo Van.

One could also also add a Cap to a pickup & have storage in it.

As for turning a bunkhouse area into a Closet. I assume it would depend on the bunkhouse arrangement as to how feasible it would be.

But if you are going with a 5th Wheel, it would be a good option. Our son had a bunkhouse in a separate room. It would have been easy to use it as a Closet. The two bunks on one side could have been used to hang shirts & skirts, just by adding a couple of rods (& just take out the cushions/mattresses. For longer things a rod between the two sides between the bunks & the build in chest of drawers could have been used.

We had a bunk house TT about 10 years ago (no kids). My wife stored a couple of guitars on the top bunk and the 2 dogs slept on the bottom bunk.
Worked out great for us at the time. If you are creative and handy you could convert the bunk area into a decent storage space...just don't overload it for balance and weight reasons.
