Small Space Solutions: 6 Spots to Add a Little Extra Storage

You may think you’ve maxed out the storage potential of your small apartment — but there may be some spots you aren’t considering. Here are seven oft-neglected places to eke out a little extra storage.


Above your doors
Add a shelf above the door to squeeze a little extra storage out of any room.


Behind a door
make racks that mount to the back of a door, and are great for storing smaller items


Above a radiator
If your landlord will allow it, mounting a shelf (or multiple shelves) above the radiator is a great way to add a little extra storage. Just don’t put things that are sensitive to heat here


Above another piece of furniture
Reclaim the space above a desk, dresser, or even a bed with wall-mounted shelves


 a corner
An unused corner is a great spot for some extra shelves, or maybe a corner hanging bar


Along the top of the wall
You can add a little extra storage in pretty much any space by running a shelf along the top of the wall, just a foot or so below the ceiling. You won’t lose any floor space at all, and you’ll gain a lot of lovely storage
