Solution for storing things in van

[Chris33]

I'd been using tupperware tubs for squeegee and stuff,but fancy something neater but not those expensive wooden storage units I've seen.

This is for keeping in van like.

What do you guys use?

1x1 timber to make frames to store everything in is what I'm going to be doing once I get a van in the next few weeks, each compartment will be big enough to hold storage boxes of tools, plus all the wfp gear I'm waiting for. Everything will have a place then and won't move around

@Clisty1989 if only I could get the dimensions of the one on eBay,its 140 but van specific

What is that stuff? And where can you get it from?

Chipboard painted black, you could do it in plastic sheeting but the thickness you need is about £80 a sheet. Personally I would use marine ply wood, then paint it with decent hard wearing paint otherwise it will rot

My mistake... in my phone it looked like some black plastic that had been used on a van I had before... Ive been searching for it ever since to make the racking in my new van...

Buying the pre made set up at 140 is starting to sound like an easier solution, it's got quite a few shelfs too. Will need to make sure this 500 litre tank will fit too though

All you need is wood,screws,paint and a couple of hours

I've got a couple of those blue tesco delivery boxes, you know the ones the tesco delivery men use when they deliver your food to your home. They are bloody brilliant in the back of the van. And when I need to go shopping there is nothing better

I've also got a tesco basket for cloths

I have the tesco crates aswell

Personally I'd scrap the idea mate the wood weighs a gd bit once all in and. U r already going with a 500

I've got a blue recycling box for my ladder safety bits and bobs, and other tools. Unger bucket, facelift Bigboy backpack and pole. Then 5x25L barrels of pure water and hot tap water (I use WFP and traditional). Wedge it all against a set of steps. Nothing slips around or moves about which is great.
