My box spring wouldn't fit- any philosophy?

I moved yesterday, and couldn't fit the box spring around the corner up to my bedroom in my strange apartment. my mattress fit, but only because the guys bent it nearly contained by half, and the box spring doesn't hold that flexibility.

Other than reminding me the importantance of measuring- got any concept so I don't look like a college kid near a mattress on the floor?

extra info: it's a double, and it doesn't have a headboard and footboard, though it does enjoy a small metal frame for under the box spring to elevate it on rolling wheels- there's no "inside" to the frame though.

Money is a little tight after the move so any a DIY or cheap solution would be preferred!!


Answers:    Did they have a bed surrounded by that room when they showed you the house? I bet if you contacted your agent you could get an answer on how they fixed it.
Yup, a piece of plywood would pick up your springs for now. If necessitate be, you can purchase a Euro-type bed. Check out Ikea.com for ideas. They don't use a boxframe, instead they use slats underneath the mattress. I don't know how comfortable it would be, but it sure beat sleeping on the floor! And I'm sure they come disassembled--you're probably the only one who can appriciate that! Lol, devout luck!
I used plywood over uniformly sized boxes within the frame. Plywood could be hinged, I simply have a straight piece. I used tomato boxes because they have lids: i use the boxes to store decorations that solitary have to come out once a year (hint: maintain track of what you store under there) also seasonal shoes,, doesn`t matter what is long-term storage. I have 24 boxes underneath there...lots of converted /formerly squandered space!
