A slim under-bed plastic storage box is one of the best things you could ever have for your organisational needs. You can use that space underneath your bed to secure all sorts of items in a unique spot. You could even add one of these plastic storage containers under a couch or other large surface with a bit of space underneath its body.
But what can you add into one of these plastic storage crates? Here are a few good suggestions.
Smart Shoe Storage
Naturally, it is best for you to consider using your under bed storage space for shoes. You can add all kinds of shoes into a slim container including dress shoes. Any seasonal shoes like open-toe sandals or winter boots can also be included in your storage space.
Fit Fragile Items Inside
Fragile toys, art pieces and other items that might be dangerous to secure elsewhere can be added into one of these plastic containers. The slim nature of a container makes it so you won’t have many things on top of or below fragile items. This is especially great for thong that could be at risk of falling out of a traditional storage closet and could be damaged when falling.
Add Seasonal Clothing
You will need a spot to store your swimwear during the winter or sweaters in the summer. An under-bed storage container can help you secure all of those items. When used with a lid, you will keep your fabrics protected from outside threats that could harm them.
Heavy Items Can Fit
Heavy materials like workout equipment or other bits of sports equipment can also be added in such a storage space. This is easier to handle than just throwing them in a closet where they might crush items or add too much weight onto your shelves.
Create a Little Library
You can always add books into your under-bed container. Many containers are slim enough to handle many books at a time although some are tall enough to where you can stick them with their sides outward. A lid can also be added to keep these books from collecting dust, a commonplace issue that come with traditional bookshelf storage options.
