Getting an apartment as a college student is a big and exciting step. You are finally on your own and actually have a living room and kitchen, unlike dorms. Although, with an apartment you normally bring more of your belongings with you.
With more belongings, the more furniture for storage you will need. As a college student, you most likely cannot afford to buy all of your furniture, so the best option is to rent. Here are pieces of furniture you may need for storage in an apartment.
Coffee and End Tables
In your living room, there is a good amount of items to store. You have your books and magazines, movies, remotes and any other living room essentials. End tables and coffee tables are perfect for storing any of these items and to keep your living area looking neat and tidy at all times!
Ottoman
If you’re not the coffee table type and are more into being relaxed and comfortable, maybe an ottoman is the right piece of furniture for your apartment. The great thing about ottomans is that you can rest your feet up on them and also store things inside of them. They are perfect for those extra throws, blankets and pillows. You can store them right in the ottoman and then have easy access whenever you want to get cozy on the couch.
Media Table
Having a media table to set your television on is also great for storage for all of your T.V. accessories. The built-in shelving is the perfect spot for your cable box, video game console or another system like Apple TV. The bottom cabinet is perfect for storing DVD’s, video games, and any other items.
Wardrobe Dresser
A wardrobe dresser is perfect for apartments with those tiny closets. This dresser not only gives you drawer space, but a little extra closet space as well. Any college girl could use some extra storage for clothes, especially hanging storage. You could use the top hanging space for your dressy clothes for your internship and the bottom drawers for jeans and t-shirts.
Bookshelf
As college students, you create quite the collection of books. They really start to add up as the semesters go on, so you will definitely need to store these books somewhere besides stacked up beside your bed. A simple bookshelf can fix this problem, along with making your apartment look neat. You’ll also be able to easily find any book you are searching for.
Nightstand
Nightstands are pretty essential for every bed. You need somewhere to set your alarm clock and glass of water you get in the middle of the night. With a nightstand you can also keep novels, magazines and other items in the built-in drawers, always keeping your bedroom clean and tidy.
Desk
Of course, as a college student you spend hours a day studying, writing, or reading. Sometimes the library doesn’t always cut it, so it is nice and confident to have a desk of your own in your apartment. You also need to store your school supplies somewhere as well, so a desk is the perfect place for your documents, pens, notebooks, etc.
