Storage > Storage > How to Build an Under-the-bed Storage Box

Learn how to build an open box that rolls under the bed to reclaim space from the dust bunnies.

Plan and draw a diagram of the storage unit in the desired size that will fit under your bed. The finished box on wheels must be fractionally lower than the available under-bed clearance (in this project, the clearance is 6 1/2 inches). Purchase the required materials and assemble your tools--these will include safety glasses and, optimally, a dust mask because you will be using power tools and cutting lumber.
