Practical van storage ideas for trades and DIYers
A well organised load area saves time on every job. When each item has a set place, you can see at a glance what is low on stock, grab what you need and get to work. These ideas help you get more out of a small space, whether it is a panel van, a pick-up or a garage unit.
Start with shelves and drawers
Heavy duty shelves along one side of the load bed are the backbone of most fit-outs. Keep heavy items low and close to the bulkhead for better weight distribution, and lighter gear higher up. Pull-out drawers under a floor deck make good use of the area over the wheel arches and keep tools accessible without climbing in. A retaining bar or lip on each shelf stops kit sliding forward under braking.
Bins, boxes and compartments

Tilt bins: wall-fixed bins that tip forward make fixings easy to see and reach, and a locking bar keeps them shut in transit.
Plastic storage boxes with a lid: stackable boxes keep consumables dry and dust free. Clear sides help you find things easily.
Organiser cases: small parts cases with adjustable compartments slide onto shelves and lift out to carry to the job.
Foldable crates: handy for occasional loads and flat when not in use.

Use the doors and roof
Overhead racks and door-mounted holders for sealant tubes, aerosols and spray cans free up shelf space. Magnetic strips and trays hold drill bits, blades and screws on metal panels. A lockable steel site box bolted to the floor adds security for your most expensive kit.
Campervans and DIY builds
The same principles apply to campervan living. Overhead lockers, under-bed drawers and a slim kitchen rack help keep a small space tidy. If you are planning a DIY build, measure everything and use lightweight ply or aluminium to save weight.
