A Portable Wardrobe is a freestanding closet type unit that is portable and can be used anywhere throughout the house that needs additional storage space. They are very cheap to buy and are extremely convenient for people who are carrying out home renovation or those who have a tight budget.
Portable Wardrobes are often large rectangular structures that stand over six feet tall so that suits and dresses can be stored in them without creasing. They are normally made from either a wooden or plastic frame that is covered with canvas or some other similar material. Their opening on the front face is normally fastened closed with a zip, but for cheaper models Velcro is used as an alternative. Their function is exactly the same as a normal wardrobe or closet but they are a convenient way to create more storage space, both quickly and easily as they tend to be very simple to erect and dismantle at a moment’s notice.
Portable wardrobes can be an excellent thing to have in the attic for when you are expecting guests and you do not have any available room to hang up their clothes because all the spare wardrobe space in the guest bedroom has been utilized for hanging up all your own out of season or ‘grow back into’ clothes. If you are a hoarder or you do tend to have a lot of seasonal wear then they double up perfectly so that you can have the current seasons wear in your everyday wardrobe and pine drawers, and your out of season clothing elsewhere in your portable clothing wardrobe.
More advanced models of wardrobes that are portable have additional features rather than just a simple pole to hang your garments on. Some models have shelves for those items that don’t need to need to be folded such as warm winter jumpers whilst other units may provide shoe pockets so that you keep both of the pair together and never end up with an odd shoe. More expensive models may be a double sized portable wardrobe and most designs incorporate wheels for ease of movement when they are full of clothing.
Prices for a portable wardrobe can vary from as little as $25 for a simple design to anywhere up to $200 for a more deluxe version that has grander features and more storage space and they can be bought both online, normally discounted, or at your local retail store.
