From a lack of hanging space for your clothes to having nowhere to stash your skincare, storage can be quite problematic if your bedroom is on the smaller side. And if you can’t properly store your belongings, then it’s easy for a compact space to become quickly overrun with clutter and crap.

Thankfully, the Amazon gods have got your back! Whether you’re happy to get out a hammer or you’re after some deposit-friendly options, there’s sure to be a solution that’s just right for your room.
1
Opt for a clothes rail with a double rod
Clothes rails are a stylish storage solution if you’re lacking in wardrobe space. If one rail isn’t going to accommodate your clothing, then rather than buying another, pick a model with two rails, and enjoy double the hanging space.
2
Make the most of unused wardrobe space
Although they're great for your maxi dress or suit collection, full length wardrobes typically leave you with a load of dead space at the bottom. But using these stackable baskets, you can create your own custom shelving system, and ensure no space goes to waste.

Keep linens and towels in statement storage trunks
If you don’t have a utility room or ample airing cupboard, you may struggle finding space in your bedroom to store clean bedding and towels. These stackable storage trunks take up far less floor space than an ottoman or bench, and style up the foot of any bed.

Use dividers to keep your drawers in order
When your drawers are disorganised, it’s easy for you to lose track of what you have and haven’t got. Using dividers like these, you’ll always have a clear view of your underwear and foldable items, and won’t end up unnecessarily buying items you already own.

Swap the bedside table for a bedside shelf
Bulky bedside tables take up space, whereas this bamboo shelf simply clamps to your bed frame. There are multiple different styles and sizes available, but this original model can safely hold up to 9kg, and boasts two handy wire slots for easy charging.

Create an open closet for coats and jackets
Even if you only have a couple of them, hanging bulky items like coats in your bedroom cupboard quickly eats away valuable space. Instead, fix an industrial pipe like this to an empty bit of wall, and display your outerwear in your very own open coat closet.

Don’t forget your door
Over the door hooks are a popular choice for hanging dressing gowns and coats - but this model goes one step further by also bringing basket storage into the mix. The two deep metal baskets are great for storing keys, wallets, and anything else you will always want to have nearby.
