Are you looking for a creative way to add space for extra sleepers in your child’s room or a guest room? A trundle bed may be the perfect solution to add an extra bed without taking up precious square footage—especially when you are working within tighter quarters. Read on to learn more about the benefits of this innovative space-saver.


HOW DOES A TRUNDLE BED WORK?

A trundle bed typically nests under the bed frame of a standard twin bed or daybed, and has the ability to be pulled out and then stowed away when not in use. Its beauty is the two-in-one functionality; when stowed away, floor space is freed up to move about in. A trundle bed is a popular fix for adding extra bed count for sleepovers or to accommodate additional guests overnight. Those who live in smaller apartments may also appreciate the extra sleeping space so that visitors aren’t relegated to a couch or air mattress.

Trundle beds are often twin-sized, but can be built into the frame of a twin, full or queen-sized frame.


TYPES OF TRUNDLE BEDS

While the function remains consistent across trundle bed types, there are a few different design mechanisms available.


ROLL-OUT TRUNDLE

As the most common type of trundle bed, a roll-out trundle keeps the stowaway mattress on casters, and works in a drawer-like manner. The trundle mattress sits at a level that’s lower than the main mattress.


POP-UP TRUNDLE

The pop-up trundle option brings both the main mattress and the trundle mattress to the same level. It gives an appearance of one large mattress on the same level, but there are two distinct frames—with separate linens required.


TRUNDLE BUNK BED

Functioning as a standard stackable bunk bed, a trundle bunk utilizes the lower bunk to house a trundle bed for a third sleeping option. Perfect for young siblings who like to host friends overnight.


TRUNDLE DAY BED

A trundle day bed adds to the furniture’s versatility as the primary frame can double as a sofa in a living room or study. The trundle portion of the day bed nests beneath the sofa to maintain the aesthetic of the room during the day.


CAPTAIN BED WITH TRUNDLE

If you want the use of under-the-bed drawers in addition to the trundle bed feature, a captain’s bed can solve this storage need, while adding an extra mattress for guests. The trundle bed can sit atop a platform that contains drawer space beneath to keep clothing or linens.
