Although we’d love a walk-in wardrobe that even Kylie Jenner would be proud of, that’s not happening any time soon. Finding space for all our outfits is a challenge – especially those chunky jumpers and faux fur coats – and it’s tough to be creative with a small space.
But fear not - the space under your bed is the perfect hiding place for your extra garms. After all, spring is fast approaching and your bulky winter knits need to somewhere to live.
This area is handy for other things too. Don't have shelves for all your books? Stick ‘em in a box under the bed. Too many cute duvet sets to fit in your cupboard? They can also live in a box under here. All those things that you don't really need to keep but just *can't* bear to throw away? Yup, under the bed they go.
So, here's our pick of the best under bed storage boxes going, from pretty patterned ones to those with wheels (for protecting your floors) to big bargain plastic numbers.
This is definitely the prettiest option we’ve found, and there’s plenty of space for any clothes or spare sheets. We’d probably pop this on top of our wardrobe instead of under the bed – it’s too cute to hide away.
There’s a lovely yellow version available, too.
Dimensions: H15cm x W70cm
This one has a clear lid, so you can see all your stuff at first glance. The zippered top will keep everything protected from dust, too.
Dimensions: H14cm x W77cm
Ooh, this cork box is very smart. The sturdy handle will make it easy to pull out from under your bed and it’s currently on sale, so nab one while you can.
Dimensions: H20cm x W76cm
Another cute zip-up bag for your jumpers and t-shirts. If it isn’t in use, you can fold it away to save space.
Dimensions: H20cm x W76cm
At only £10, this is great value. The lid closes with clips, so your stuff is extra secure and dust-free, plus you can stack ‘em, to maximise space. Obviously, that’s dependent on the amount of space you’re working with.
Dimensions: H17.5cm x W40cm
These plastic boxes aren’t outrageously pretty, but they’re great for storing handbags, shoes or clothes. Wheeled options are easier to drag in and out from under your bed without scratching the floors, too.
Dimensions: H18cm x W89cm
Here’s another wheeled option, except this has split lids for easier access to your stuff.
Dimensions: H18cm x W45cm
These are narrower than your average under-bed boxes, so they're great if space is tight. They're ideal for stashing summer sandals and the like during the off season – or just little bits and bobs that don't really fit anywhere else.
Dimensions: H18cm x W90cm
If you've got a bed that's really low to the ground, or you want to squeeze some more storage in on top of your wardrobe, these little boxes are a good option. There are three sizes to choose from, too.
Dimensions: H12cm x W62cm, H16cm x W68cm, H20cm x W75cm
For something a bit fancier than the bog-standard plastic boxes, these seagrass baskets are a good shout.
Dimensions: H18cm x W75cm
If the above option is a little out of your budget, Dunelm has a similar one for about half the price. There's two sizes available – small or large.
Dimensions: H14cm x W37cm, H20cm x W45cm
Keep sandals and summery flats dust-free and out of the way in here.
Dimensions: H16cm x W86.5cm
If you just want something to tidy up your stuff without spending loads, than go for this pack of five boxes. They're cheap, cheerful and make it easy to see what's in each.
Dimensions: H18cm x W60cm
This is a bit bigger than the average under bed boxes we've seen and it's only £6! Bargain.
Dimensions: H16cm x W45cm x L106cm
Neat freaks, this set is for you. All your clothes will be kept super organised, ready for when you want to wear them again next season.
Dimensions: H15cm x W32cm
