4 clever storage upgrades every teen bedroom needs

Teen bedrooms have a way of filling up faster than anyone plans for. Between clothes, shoes, schoolbooks, and a growing pile of gadgets and games, the floor and every open surface just disappear. It’s a lot of work for one closet to handle, but with a little planning and some smart storage, you can find space in all the little unused corners and gaps that were wasted before. These are our four favorite storage ideas for teen bedrooms, and they’re also all on sale.

Four storage upgrades for a teen's room

Under Bed Storage Containers with Wheels, 2 Pack

The space under a bed is usually reserved for wayward socks, trash, and anything your teen doesn’t want you to see. If you want to put all that room to better use, these two storage containers are a great option. Each one rolls out on four quiet 360-degree casters, so even a full bin glides across hardwood or carpet with a light pull, and two of the wheels lock down once you've got it where you want it. A tough 600D Oxford body over a metal tube frame holds up to 70 pounds without slumping, so blankets, books, and off-season clothes all have a home. Right now, you can grab the two-pack for $27.06 (MSRP $28.49).

Over Door Storage Rack

The closet may be full, but the door is free real estate. This over-the-door rack turns that dead space into 10 roomy compartments, twice what a normal five-tier organizer gives you. Four heavy-duty hooks and reinforced stitching hold as much as 80 pounds without tilting or sagging under the weight. Setup is easy, and you can pick this one up on sale for $22.98 (MSRP $29.98).

Corner Twin Bed Frame with Desk, Charging Station and Bookcase Storage

A small bedroom usually forces you to choose between a desk, a dresser, or having even an inch of floor space. This DICTAC twin frame gets around that by folding a bed, a desk, and a bookcase into one L-shaped unit that tucks into a corner. A 39.4-inch desk runs across the foot of the bed with room for a laptop and homework, and the charging station on the shelf gives you two outlets and two USB ports for a phone, tablet, and controller all at once. RGB LED lights run along the edges and shift color and brightness on command, and they'll even sync to music through an app. You can get this corner bed for $199.97 (MSRP $299.98).

WallShelfie Bedside Wall Organizer

Don’t want any holes in your walls? This bedside organizer doesn’t need them. WallShelfie has a patented adhesive mount that peels off clean, and you don’t need any tools to mount it. A single shelf pulls triple duty as a nightstand, a makeup ledge, and a phone stand, and modular add-ons like a cupholder and hooks for keys or headphones let a teen build it out however they like. Get one of these modular organizers on sale for $22.99 (MSRP $24.99).
