I was just wondering where do you guys store your clothes that need to be put away til next season? I am really lacking in the storage area! I live in an old farm house that doesn't have many closets so space is limited. I find it to expensive to have to go out and buy a bunch of Rubbermaid, type containers to store everything in. Most of the time, all our seasons of clothing are stuffed in our dressers and closets...it's a real pain in the butt !

i bought two extra large spacesavers bags..the ones you fill up and suck all the air out of them with the vacuum...you can really get a lot in and then they go really flat...i store both under our bed. close enough to get at, dust free...clean and do not need to be rewashed again. i think they are the greatest.

I also have the spacesavers and they are great! I also have a small travel bag which is really nice - even though I don't travel often.

I was going to say Rubbermaid totes work great but if you don't want to go that route, that's not good advice.

If you have room under the bed, I love the under the bed storage boxes. It will be an initial investment but they will last a long time. You can put one under each person's bed. I also like the space savers. They will keep the clothes in the box dust free.

I live in an old house ith no storage space too, so everything gets squeezed into the few closets I have. Total pain! How thick are the space saver bags? I'm not sure I have the space under my bed

It depends on what you put in it... but you could probably fit it under the bed.

It depends on what you put in it and which size bag. They have small travel size bags up to X-large bags.

I use the under bed storage containers also. I have one under each kids bed and rotate clothes as needed.
