Trundle Beds

A trundle bed keeps a second mattress parked beneath the main frame, ready to roll out when a sibling, cousin, or overnight friend needs somewhere to sleep. Main frames here run twin through queen, including both XL lengths, and the pull-out size depends on the model.

For a kids’ room, start with our twin trundle frames.

What Size Trundle Goes Under Each Bed?

On a trundle bed, the lower mattress is often narrower than the one above it, so the pairing decides who can sleep comfortably down low.

None of these queen beds has a second queen bed hidden underneath. For guest-room layouts built on a queen, compare our queen trundle setups side by side.

What Types of Trundle Bed Setups Are There?

Beds with trundle options here fall into a handful of formats, and each one fixes a different household problem:

• Standard Frames with an Optional Pull-Out: Choose the bed, then pick a trundle, drawers where offered, or neither on the product page, depending on how often guests stay.
• Storage Trundles: On many models, dividers turn the lower unit into one big bin for blankets, toys, or luggage between visits.
• Daybeds: Back and side rails allow the top mattress to serve as seating by day, with a sleeper tucked below. Browse our daybeds for these.
• Bunks That Include a Trundle: Stacking two beds and adding a pull-out puts several sleepers in one footprint. Review the guardrail, mattress, and stair details on each listing before ordering.
• Trundles with Built-In Compartments: A few pull-outs carry three drawers in their face, keeping a sleeping spot and storage in one piece.

Some trundle bed setups include the pull-out, while others list it as a separate add-on, so compare totals with the trundle added.

Will a Trundle Bed Work in a Small Bedroom?

Often, yes. A bed with trundle space underneath claims no extra floor until the lower bed rolls out, but that moment is the one to plan for:

• Open Footprint: Mark the full area with the pull-out extended, plus a clear path to the door.
• Rollout Side: Pick the long side facing the open floor, since a dresser or desk on that side shortens the trundle.
• Low Wall Features: Floor vents and outlets on that side may be hidden behind the open bed.
• Mattress Depth: Select storage trundles cap the lower mattress at 7 or 8 inches, and the main bed’s limit, where listed, is separate. Our trundle mattresses include low-profile twin options.
• Ceiling Height: Bunk setups need headroom above the top bunk, so compare the listed height with your ceiling.
• Stair Footprint: Bunks with stairs need floor space for the steps, so plan where they land relative to the trundle bed’s rollout side.
• Delivery Path: Measure stair turns and doorways, especially for daybeds and bunk frames.

What Else Do Families Ask About Pull-Out Beds?

Is there a weight limit for the pull-out bed?

No listing in this collection publishes a separate rating for the trundle itself. Main-bed ratings range from 160 to 2,000 lbs, depending on the model, so ask our team before planning to have an adult guest on the lower level.

Can a trundle bed sleep more than two people?

Yes, on select setups. One twin-over-twin bunk with a trundle lists room for three, and the twin-over-full versions list three to four sleepers.

Do any of these trundles pop up to bed height?

No listing here describes a pop-up mechanism, so expect the lower bed to stay close to the floor. If two sleepers need matching heights, two separate frames side by side serve that need.

Can I have drawers and a trundle on the same frame?

Some beds offer either underbed storage or a trundle, while select platform frames allow both on either side. Our team at Totally Home Furniture can confirm which options work with your chosen frame before you order.

Which setups suit a child moving out of a crib?

Certain toddler daybeds pair a full rail along the back and a half rail across the front with a twin storage trundle below. Both sleeping surfaces carry their own mattress limits.

Why might part of a trundle bed arrive later?

Some listings give the pull-out its own lead time, which can run shorter or longer than the frame’s. Reading both estimates on the product page means no sleepover gets planned around a bed that hasn’t arrived.

Can I match a trundle bed to the rest of the room?

Yes. Finishes in this collection span white, blue, gray, brown, natural, and black. Several designs are sold in two or more colors, which helps when coordinating with a dresser you already own.
