It’s that time of year again – the one where the kids are back in school after six long weeks, your house has been well and truly lived in with no deep clean in sight and you’ve accumulated even more bits and bobs that have no home.

If there’s limited space in your house, it can be even harder to find space to store your new possessions and clutter is more likely to multiply over the upcoming months – and no one wants that!

With searches up 160% for 'storage solutions for small bedrooms' and ‘storage solutions for small spaces’ up 70% [1], it’s clear most people are in the same position. Here are some VonHaus storage saviours that will help those organisation tasks feel like less of a headache.
Colonial Storage Box

A toy box that doesn’t look like a toy box – the ultimate winner! This compact yet spacious piece offers traditional colonial charm as well as safe storage for even the largest collection of toys or belongings. It even features a modern three-hinge mechanism designed for safe operation, which means no trapped fingers!
Hall Valet with Storage Trunk

Bring style and organisation to your hallway with this sleek Hall Valet. It’s perfect for smaller entrances and will become a life saver when it comes to storing away coats and shoes – especially before and after school runs (the seat will come in handy for children when getting ready to go out.)
 
Black and Cane Storage Trunks

Opting for rectangular storage over round containers is a must, as they stack together better and are more efficient for tight spaces. Our Black and Cane Storage Trunks are stylish and practical – they’re perfect for the things you have little to no space for – such as bedding and toys. Out of sight, out of mind.
Charcoal Storage Ottoman

Investing in an ottoman that can double up as both a coffee table and a storage solution is a great idea for those with small spaces. This versatile charcoal bench is 92cm wide, which means there’s plenty of space to store books, shoes, electricals and more. The comfy seat is a huge bonus too!
Multi Colour 10 Drawer Trolley

Take control over clutter and add a vibrant splash of colour with this eye-catching storage trolley. A great back to school hack for homework and drawings that have no home or are taking up prime fridge space. The drawers are a spacious size with a maximum weight capacity of 2kg, which means you can fill to your hearts content without cluttering other spaces!
 
Natural Rush Storage Baskets

Utilise the side of cupboards or empty floor space with these boho baskets. You could pop them on hooks to maximise storage space or keep them close by in the living room or bedroom to store away blankets or even kindling for wood burning stoves.
 
Set of 3 Seagrass & Cotton Storage Baskets

If you have existing larger storage pieces such as a bookcase, decorative boxes like these seagrass and cotton baskets, which can double as more storage are the perfect option. Ideal for hiding the TV remotes, the kids’ toys, and general living room clutter. You’ll increase the likelihood of putting all those bits and bobs away if there’s a storage solution in the same room.
 
Rosie Knightly-Ralston, one of the expert buyers at VonHaus, commented:

“It’s always helpful to find creative and efficient storage solutions for your belongings, especially post-summer when your home is in disarray after six long weeks of being at home, or from spending little time in your home.
 
You can make beneficial and effective changes to your small spaces with the simplest of storage solutions.
 
We recommend investing in baskets and trolleys to help keep the clutter at bay and opting for larger storage pieces such as ottomans and storage boxes when there are bigger household items that need a home.”
