    Hi Tammy, I'm not sure what types of plastic objects you are going to use. Can you provide us more information so we can answer with ideas? Thanks. What size bedframe? Are you going to use the bedframe with springs and mattress? It seems it might be better to build one out of wood or purchase a metal frame.

    Hi Tammy,

    A bit unsure what you are asking for, the best idea I could come up with is you are making a bed frame out of plastic, which could be PVC pipes, so here is a link for that:

    If you think about it, a series of connected plastic items would have to be connected in such a way to make it sturdy enough to withstand movement. We would need more guidelines to offer any answers to your question.

    Back in college we used plastic milk crates for lots of our furniture needs. You could collect enough for a base under your size bed. Paint the outside ones that will show and simply zip tie them all together tightly. Is this more what you had in mind? None of us have a clear picture of what you mean by your question. Milk crates can be found at flea markets, yard sales or buy new ones at Walmart and othe similar stores.
