It’s always a good thing when a piece of furniture can have multiple uses, especially when you have limited space. This is the case with storage benches. You can store all sorts of gardening implements in them, without the need for a separate storage box. Look for models that are topped with a cushion, as they are more comfortable to sit on for long periods.

Mud room storage bench

Setting up a mud room in your home to act as a barrier between the elements outside and what people may track indoors takes a little bit if planning. The floor covering should be one that is easily cleaned like tiles or linoleum, wall mounted racks for wet clothing and a storage bench so folks can sit down when putting on boots and such.

Wooden garden storage bench

If you like to use your patio, deck or back-yard for reading, or just relaxing, a wooden garden storage bench can be a wise choice as a comfortable seat and storage unit for back-yard tools, childrens’ toys or soccer balls and the like. Depending on how the wood has been treated, you may want to keep it out of the rain and snow as it might not do well with harsh weather conditions. Make sure to ask the salesperson’s advice first if you plan on keeping the bench out in the open.

Wood bench with storage

A wood bench with storage compartment is a great way to add storage space to a room or area that is lacking in such. The wood bench looks nice in most decors and acts as another piece of furniture. One or two people can use it as an extra seating space. The storage area inside the bench can then be used to hold linens, toys, towels, bedding, clothes and whatever else you can place inside. Great for at the foot of a bed or in a vestibule or entrance way.
