Van Storage - Internal and External - What do you use?

[Tidy Max]

Yo folks!

Been looking at storage for my van but the more i look the harder it is to choose!

I have a 59 plate berlingo, i need a roof rack, a pipe tube for trunking and conduit etc. Then some internal storage.

I use the van for activites other than just work (mountain biking, camping etc.... no Saville style stuff) So i have been looking for some removal type storage. Most of my materials such as fixings are in dividers so i have been thinking about getting storage crates that i can just put all of my boxes in.

Just out of curiosity what do you guys use?

Pictures would be appreciated, i have a distinct lack of imagination so i dont want to go and spend £500 on a rhino system then decide i don't like the look of it.

My connect has slide out racking down drivers side and some of newer vans at work professionally racked the racking out of the british gas vans is good but if you need to empty the van for other uses then storage crates probably best

As for roof rack again our newer vans got rhino easy load etc but bit overkill for small van, I've got 2.4m combi ladder on standard roof rack and the rhino ladder clamps as for pipe tube I've known guys just use waste pipe from plumbers merchant might save a few quid... Alternatively look on ebay

removal crate/storage crate, they come in various sizes and stack up. pretty much indestructible , dont confuse them with stuff been sold in the shops.

can get them on ebay
