Most college dorm rooms come with a limited amount of space, and students must adjust to having a pretty small desk. If that happens to be the case with yours, our brief guide is here to help you make the best of the limited desk space that you have at your disposal.
Only Essentials
Avoid using your desk to hold things that you won’t need during your study sessions. In addition to taking up space, they’ll only be a distraction, so try storing them on your shelves, under the bed, or inside the closet.
Organizing Hacks
When your dorm desk is really tiny, you’ll be willing to try pretty much every organizing hack in the book – and some of them actually work. Desk hutches and desk organizers are worth trying, but strategically placed shelves can also save you a lot of space.
Drawers Are a Must
If you have the luxury of choosing your own desk, make sure it has drawers because they’ll make it easier to keep your desk neat and organized.
Cable Organizer
If you hate dealing with messy charging cables, power strips, and cords all around your desk, consider investing in a practical cable organizer that can help you keep your cables in order.
