Shop Full Size Storage BedsQuick Breakdown: What is a Storage Bed?
A storage bed is a bed frame that comes with built-in drawers, shelves, or hidden compartments for storing clothes, linens, books, or even electronics. Instead of relying solely on traditional bedroom storage furniture like dressers or nightstands, storage beds make it possible to go smaller with main storage pieces while keeping things with hidden organization built right into the bed.
Compared to sleigh beds and panel beds, storage beds usually sit at a mid-range price point. They cost more than basic frames but are often cheaper (and more practical) than investing in multiple standalone storage pieces.
✔Here are the main types of full size beds with storage and the bedroom situation each fits best:
🔵 Bed with Headboard Storage:
These are great for readers, students, or anyone who loves to keep books, decor, or alarm clocks close. If you’re tight on floor space and don’t have room for nightstands, choosing this type of full bed with storage is a smart solution.
🔵 Bed with Footboard Storage
Storage beds with footboard compartments are ideal for storing extra bedding, seasonal clothes, or bulky bedroom essentials. The best models are designed with deep drawers that slide out smoothly, keeping items out of sight and out of mind.
🔵 Bed with Side Storage
This is the most common choice. A full size bed frame with storage on the side maximizes underbed space with drawers that slide out horizontally. These are excellent for tight bedrooms, studio apartments, or even guest rooms, and it’s a great tween bedroom idea too.

Determining if a Full Size Bed Is the Right Fit
If you’re looking to buy a full size bed, think about your room size and your storage needs. For some, it’s not just a bed—it’s a key piece of storage furniture for bedroom organization. Before you rush to buy a full size storage bed, the first step is to ensure you have the space for one or if it fits your budget. Go over this bed checklist to determine whether a storage bed is a right fit for you.
- Full Bed Dimensions: A standard full size bed measures 54 inches wide by 75 inches long—bigger than a twin but smaller than a queen. This is a great transitional size for teens, but it’s also great for single adults who want to save space in the bedroom.
- Price: If you’re wondering how much for a bed like this costs, you can anticipate most models to fall within the mid-end price range, or about $1,000-$2,000. Full size bed with storage price varies widely depending on materials and brand, but you can generally expect to pay less than for a queen or king.
- Best For: Singles, teenagers, or couples who don’t mind cozy quarters get the most use out of full storage beds. However, we don’t recommend them to parents sharing the bed with kids or for taller/heavier individuals who may want more space.
