I have built a couple storage beds to fit situations of small rooms with no dresser space. The first one was one built from 3/4" oak veneer plywood and solid oak trim. I utilized all the space under the bed with drawers on each side along with double doors and shelves. Access doors on the end gave more storage space/ I built that in Michigan and made it collapsable. I transported it in my minivan then reassembled. It worked perfectly in the small mobil home bedroom. the materials cost right at $500.00

The second one was built from plain clear plywood and drawers were solid pine. I went this cheaper routes as I was painting it instead of staining. It cost something over $200.00 to build and also was transported in my minivan from Florida to Michigan for a small mobil home bedroom. The beds were very comfortable and handy. I enjoyed designing and building them.
