Abstract: A bunk bed apparatus is provided, having at least upper and lower bunks, and which encloses a storage area under the lower bunk when the lower bunk is usable for sleeping, and encloses a larger storage area under the upper bunk when only the upper bunk is usable for sleeping, the lower bunk being moved to form an enclosing wall of the larger storage area. The apparatus can be disposed within a vehicle, such as an RV, adjacent a closable opening to the exterior of the vehicle, which gives full access to both sizes of the storage area. The apparatus can be formed with a slideable end wall which contains a pocket for receiving and storing an access ladder for the upper bunk, and that end wall can form a closable opening for the storage area.
