How Can I Add More Storage To My Kids’ Room?

Parents know that keeping a kid’s room organized can feel like a daily battle. But the right bed can make a real difference. When sleep, storage, and floor space all work together, cleanup becomes easier, routines feel smoother, and rooms stay functional as kids grow.

At Maxtrix, we design beds around how families actually live. From shared spaces to smaller layouts to the ever-growing collections of clutter, our beds feature built-in storage that helps rooms stay organized and efficient. 

In this guide, we’re breaking down the 10 best types of beds that improve storage, explaining why each option works, and who it’s best for, so you can choose the smartest setup for your home.

 

Storage Bed

 

Bunk Beds with Built-In Storage

Bunk beds with storage are great if you are looking to fit multiple sleepers and their belongings in one room. With storage stairs, underbed drawers, bedside trays, and trundles help increase stashing space.

1. Bunk Beds with Storage Stairs

This solid wood bunk bed with storage stairs makes both bedtime and cleanup easier. The built-in staircase offers easy climbing, complete with a sturdy banister to guide little ones to the top bunk.

With this Maxtrix design, no space goes to waste. Each step doubles as a drawer for toys, bedding, and daily essentials, putting storage right where kids need it and making tidying up feel more manageable.

Additionally, the added bed height creates space underneath the bed for optional underbed storage drawers, allowing families to increase storage without taking up open bedroom space.

2. Bunk Beds with Built-In Drawers

Classic bunk bed style meets smart, built-in storage. Our bunk beds with underbed drawers feature smooth pull-out storage for clothes, shoes, toys, and nighttime essentials. When not in use, the drawers slide neatly back under the bed to keep the room tidy and floor space open.

Because we know families’ storage needs change, Maxtrix designs go beyond this two-drawer layout. Add a single dresser drawer, underbed cubby, or even a standalone dresser to customize a setup that works uniquely for you.

3. Bunk Beds with Trundles

Need room for sleepover guests and stashing? With Maxtrix, it’s your bed, your way! Our multi-functional bunk bed with a trundle adds an extra sleep surface when needed. Then, swap the trundle mattress for storage drawers to create hidden space for blankets, toys, or seasonal items.

But just wait, your custom build doesn’t stop there. As kids grow, Maxtrix bunk beds can be separated into individual beds, allowing the setup to adapt as sleep and storage needs change over time.

4. Corner Bunk Beds With Storage

For unique room layouts or three sleepers, our corner triple bunk beds offer a smart, space-efficient solution. With two bunks and a loft arranged in an L-shape, the open space underneath can be used for a shared dresser, bookcase, or desk, designed entirely around your needs.

Combining three sleep surfaces into one compact footprint frees up floor space for additional storage furniture around the bedroom. The result is a highly customizable setup that maximizes both sleep and storage without crowding the room.

Loft Beds That Maximize Storage and Space

If you're looking for how to add more storage to a loft, you've come to the right place. Space-saving loft beds are perfect for opening floor space and optimizing storage below the bed. By sleeping up high, you open up room for desks, dressers, storage cubes, and bookcases.

5. Mid Loft Beds with Storage

Mid loft beds are a clever way to free up floor space while adding easy-access organization. Kids love sleeping up high, and parents appreciate the ability to design the room with purpose.

Underbed options include a dresser and desk combo, or a bookcase, dresser, and desk all in one. With so much storage, it’s easy to organize bedroom and school supplies in one place. Due to their height, mid loft beds can’t accommodate every furniture option. Our loft height guide breaks down exactly what fits and why.

Alternatively, mix and match storage pieces to tailor the setup to your child’s specific needs. Choose a solid wood bookcase, swap in a four-drawer storage cube, or a large desk for the ultimate homework station.

Whatever setup you opt for, it’s your bed, your way!

6. High Loft Beds with Storage

Reach new heights with a high loft bed. This setup raises your kiddo’s bed 52.5 inches off the ground, maximizing vertical space and creating a spacious area underneath.

With the added clearance, build a spot for studying and shelving without overcrowding the rest of the room. Underbed layout options include long desks or a compact desk paired with storage like a dresser or bookcase, giving kids plenty of room for storage and after-school activities.

High loft beds are best suited for older kids and teens who appreciate clearly defined sleep-and-study setups, as well as the freedom to design a space that is their very own.

7. Corner Loft Beds with Storage

Corner loft beds are a smart solution for shared rooms that need both sleeping space and storage flexibility. With two beds arranged in an L-shaped layout, this design creates a generous open zone beneath the loft, perfect for larger storage pieces or a shared organization area.

It’s an ideal setup for siblings who share a space but still need room for clothes, books, and everyday essentials.

By stacking sleep surfaces strategically, this layout keeps the room feeling open and functional, giving families more freedom to design a storage setup that fits their routines.

Single Bed Storage Solutions

Looking to add more storage to a single bed? Underbed storage solutions are great for single beds, making the most of the space you already have, keeping essentials close by and neat.

8. Single Beds with Storage 

Simple and practical, our twin, twin XL, full, and queen single beds with storage drawers have everyday organization built right in. Two spacious drawers make it easy to keep bedrooms neat and clutter-free. Or, just like the bunk bed setup, add a storage cubby or a dresser drawer.

Just because you can't put larger furniture under a single bed bed like the bunk or loft, doesn't mean you don't have options! Add the perfect bedside sidekick, a nightstand, for stashing tablets, nightlights, and nighttime necessities.

Storage Beds Designed for Younger Kids

Maxtrix is all about designing a space that works now and for years to come. For younger kids transitioning to their first big kid bed, our toddler beds with storage add underbed drawers, desks, and bedside trays to your setup.

9. Low Loft Beds with Storage

Our low-profile lofts with storage are a smart choice for younger kids transitioning out of a toddler bed. The lower height and staircase make getting in and out easy, while built-in staircase cubbies help keep toys, books, and clothes off the floor.

Our low loft with bookcase and stairs takes keeping tidy up a notch with a wide six-shelf dresser and a three-shelf bookcase built right in. Everything has a designated spot, helping the room feel open and easy to manage.

10. Toddler Beds with Storage

Even the littlest kids benefit from smart storage. By adding underbed drawers to a toddler bed, favorite toys, pajamas, and books stay close by and easy to find. Or, add a bedside tray that doesn't use any floor space. Plus, tall, 16” guardrails offer extra peace of mind for parents. 

Teaching organization skills early helps kids build independence and confidence that they can carry with them as they grow. Plus, having everything within reach makes cleanup easier and bedtime routines calmer for everyone.
