Storage space and organization will always be an issue renters face when moving into a new apartment—especially if they have roommates! With these creative solutions, you can maximize your available storage space and leave your apartment looking better for it!
Hooks offer a lot of vertical storage space
As seen above, you can make the most of your apartment’s untapped vertical space by using hooks.
Store items under your bed
Use the space under your bed to store linens, blankets, clothes, or more. With sliding compartments access is even easier.
A fridge-side rolling storage pantry can offer a lot of extra space
Looking for a place to store your ever growing collection of cooking spices? A rolling storage pantry can take advantage of the untapped space between your fridge and the wall.
Get a shower caddy
Shower caddies offer a convenient storage solution for soap, shampoo, conditioners, and any other must-have items for your cleansing routine. Especially helpful if your sink/bathtub is becoming crowded with cleaning products.
Turn your headboard into a shelving system
Many people neglect the available space that can be found in a bed’s headboard and/or above the bed. A few simple shelves can open a lot of room to store items.
Over-the-door organizers are your best friend
Hanging door organizers can help you store and organize shoes, cleaning products, socks, towels, or anything else you might want to keep close together.
Use baskets
Baskets provide a stylish method to organize and group items throughout your house. A pile of CDs may not especially appealing on their own, but put them in a basket and suddenly it looks like a design choice as opposed to clutter.
A storage chest can double as a coffee table
Just because something gets a lot of use doesn’t mean it can’t also add to your storage space. A cool-looking storage chest can add a lot of style to your apartment and provide an out of sight repository for your things.
With these tips, not only will your space offer all the storage you’ll need—it’ll look amazing in the process.
