I have just gone from a short bed van to a pick up/6×10 trailer. I am looking for ideas on home made shelf configurations. Mostly for tool boxes and smaller power tools plus miter, table saw etc.

I bolted a Knaack box to the floor in my trailor. It doubles as a table in a pinch. Try to keep most of the weight over the wheels.
I built shelves on the whole front wall for misc. In the remodeling business you need a lot of misc. most of it is in plastic tool boxes and milk crates.
My extension cords are hung on the back side of the side door for easy access and easy put back.
I put a series of ladder hangers down one side wall to hold trim or whatever. it keeps stuff off the floor.
I also mortised D bolts into the floor for the Harley. The D bolts do double duty when I have to tie down cabinets.
My table saw hangs on a side wall. The brackets were custom to fit my saw.
And the most important... the porta-potti!
Thanks , great ideas. Maybe I can get organized. Wonder what that will be like.
