What are those under-bed drawers called? Where to get them? Wrong forum :(

[WinkOsmosis]

I want to get some drawers to put my clothes in, since I don't have any. But I don't want to waste space so I want some that go under the bed. What are they called and where can I get some?

I'd try Target, ShopKo or K-Mart for those.

Oh, and what are they called... probably something along the lines of "modular storage" somethin'.

Ahhh, try doing a Search at Rubbermaid for "under bed." Or Sterilite has some: link Newegg seems to be slacking off in this category, although they do have cordless rechargeable nose-hair trimmers.

Thanks. I may get some of those Sterilite sliding things. May be a tight squeeze under my 7" high bed though.

they are often called "under the bed storage" they arent really drawers, just bins that are made extra thin. some are 8" thick, so bring a ruler or tape measure with you. with 7" of space, you will be limited to some 6" of height including the lid. if you can, there are also blocks available specifically made to elevate a bed a few inches. usually, they only work for beds with "legs"

I believe the blocks you speak of are made of concrete, although the name escapes me...

I have a bed with real drawers built into the bed. Can't imagine living without them, been sleeping in the bed for as long as I can remember (3 years of age) and using them to store my underwear! Even better, you can pull out an entire section and it's a second bed (lower then the first of course)
