Tip One:
Your bedding: linens, covers, comforters, blankets, and
pillows can take up a lot of space when you need to store your off
season or seldom used items. One of the BEST products I've found and
recommend are the Space Bag® Storage
Packs. By using these bags you can gain up to three times more storage
space and your bedding is protected against the elements, such as moths,
bugs and water. All you need to do is fold up your items, insert into
the bag, zip it closed and hook up your vacuum hose to suck out the air.

Tip Two:
I'm not a
big fan of storing things under your bed; however I realize that
sometimes that is the only place left for some to store off season or
seldom used items. The tip here is that you want to make sure you
measure the "height" and "width" of space under your bed, looking to see
and taking into account any cross bars or braces that might get in the
way of the storage container.

Tip Three:
If you
choose to use under bed storage containers make sure you get plastic so
you can see what's stored inside at a glance. I also recommend you label
the container, with label facing out so you can read it. I really like
to have the containers on wheels for easier access.

Tip Four:
Sometimes you just need an extra drawer or two so instead of
sliding out the whole unit you just pull out the drawer from under the
bed. Make sure you measure before you purchase.
