Your Top Choices For Single Bed With Storage

A single bed with storage or even just your basic frame might not seem like anything to write home about. Most commonly found in the kiddies' rooms or acting as a guest bed - they deserve to look just as stunning as an impressive kingsize centrepiece!

They are a fantastic option if your room is lacking in space though, as not only can they look fantastic, but they’re super practical too! You don’t need to compromise the look of your bedroom, nor do you need to minimise the floor space you love.

To help you make the most of your home, we’ve compiled some possible solutions in the form of a single bed with storage! You don’t need to break the bank for bespoke cupboards or fitted wardrobes. Just think outside of the box a little… (Or keep reading!)

Ottoman Style

These designs are becoming seriously popular with a lot of people. New build homes now don’t always provide loft space you may need for extra storage - so first time buyers are following suit and opting for an ottoman single bed with storage just like those in flats or smaller homes.

We’ve raved about them before and we stand by what we said! They don’t take up any more space than a normal frame and they hide away all that clutter you’d usually shove underneath the bed. (Don’t lie - we know you do it…)

Single Bed With Pull-Out Mattress

While your friends and family might say they don’t mind sleeping on an air mattress - let’s be honest, it really isn’t the most comfortable thing in the world!

A trundle is really space efficient and is the perfect pick for guest bedrooms or kids rooms. They can have sleepovers galore and you won’t even need to worry about pumping up an air bed and rolling it away every time! Simply slide out the trundle and bingo! You are good to go!

You will just have to think about how much space you have to play with to the side. When they pull out, it will be like having two double beds side by side so make sure the room is big enough and that wardrobes or other furniture doesn’t get in the way.

Extra Drawer Space

You can never have enough cupboards in the home. We’ve all got something that doesn’t live anywhere in particular and so having room for extra belongings in the bedroom is a must.

Not only does it stop the room getting cluttered, but it tucks your bits and bobs away perfectly. Out of sight out of mind as they say!

Instead of cramming extra bedding and pillows into a tiny airing cupboard or even just on the floor under the bed - you can make sure it’s folded neatly and ready for when you may need it. Otherwise, it can go untouched for however long.

With most of them being mounted on wheels - it makes for really easy access and will slide away nicely afterwards. You don’t need to lift anything and so if you’re worried about the ottoman style, this could be a great alternative for you!

Divan Single Bed With Storage

Divan beds have a sturdy box frame that essentially links in the middle. Your mattress sits on top and the frame can even be purchased with a new mattress so you can be sure it is the right fit!

They are built for the purpose of integrating storage so you can make the most of the handy, hidden drawers!

Another benefit is that they are fully customisable. The frame usually comes without a headboard and so the material and finish including this is totally down to you. Go wild with patterns, colours and textures or keep it simple.

Whatever your style, you will be left with a minimalistic frame that can be dressed up or down. They are perfect for saving space and offering extra storage you need.

Put It On Show

Unlike the rest of our single bed with storage options in this blog, there are some people who would rather have things quickly accessible and even on display.

Books, art or sports awards are things you may not want to hide away. Instead, you could opt for a frame with open front shelving that gives you plenty of room to store things (much like normal wall shelving or cupboards) but utilises the under bed space you already have.

Usually coming in a flat pack style - they are super easy to set up and take down if you need to move house or rooms. This means that they can be used over and over, without the worry of scuffing fabric or scratching leather.

As with any bed - it is up to you to decide on a design and style that matches your interior. Colours, textures and shapes are all possible ways to change up the look and think outside of the box when it comes to decor.

Final Touches

Now that you’ve made all of this effort in finding the right single bed with storage and picking out the best style - make sure the smaller details are right too!

You don’t have to go crazy, but new finishes and changing up the bedding every now and then along with the occasional spring clean will make your bed look beautiful as well as get it ready for a cosy night in.

Don’t forget to always measure up the space you’re looking to fill - especially when going for pull-out drawers or a trundle. You don’t want to go through all the hassle just to realise you can only open them halfway…

A single bed with storage is perfect for those looking to maximise space you’ve got and make the most of extended storage opportunities.
