I was considering putting up rails and adding 'under bed' storage bins on the ceiling. As long as you don't put anything too heavy in them, there shouldn't be a problem. Good storage for blankets and other light objects.<br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/117Gng1LOQL.jpg" class="bbc_img">
 
I have plans of buying a small shuttle bus and installing one of those metal bunk beds sold at ikea... the top bunk will be for things. that's as far as I imagined...&nbsp;

I have one of those spider web looking things that you use to holds stuff in the bed of a truck, just hung it from the roof, put pillows, blanks etc. &nbsp;in it.
<br><br>&nbsp;That's basically what we had in our VW vans. Thanks for reminding me, since now I know what to look for. ..Willy.

<br><br>If you go with the shuttle bus, get with CrossCountryGal, for interior ideas. She did hers up fine.
 
My small little motorhome has a 'cab over' style bed - 2 steps up to bed.&nbsp; I put a canvas screen across the gap bit and clipped in place using two x dog clips (what else?!) the clips are attached to bungey cord and when I go to bed I put it up in place so as to prevent 'flying Whippets' in the night, or even falling Annie's!<br><br>In the day, even when driving if I put it up I can carry light stuff up there safely - my chair for outside, table, and often I will put computer on the bed and 'tuck it in'.<br><br>By the pillow end of the bed on the back bit of the shower room I have attached one of those roll up bags with lots of pockets for bathroom stuff or make up I guess, it has about 6 pockets of various sizes, I velcoed it to wall and it hold my alarm clock, head torch, mp3 player and mini speaker, there is a pocket that is just the right size for my mobile phone too - found this bag in an op shop, great buy!<br><br>annie
