Van racking examples/inspiration

[WillWX]

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this..

But I’m after ideas of how to organise the back of my van, I’m hitting a point where I could do with organising it a little better. I just don’t want to rack it all out and then be unhappy with it..

Does anyone have any photos of how you’re van is organised for inspiration?

Thanks in advance

mine. built racking from materials salvaged from skips, except for the 6mm ply. had to buy that. 2 day's worth of beer money gone.

Since looking at your pic, I found an offcut of LED strip, have been out and fitted it, what a difference, why didn’t I think of this before. Going to pick 2 meters up next week and replace original lights with 2 strips. Thanks

Also, your racking is decent given it was sourced from a skip!! I’d love to have that much floor space. I carry quite a few reels of cable so having some sort of racking would make a hell of a difference for me. A couple of full rubbish bags and I start to get annoyed with it at the minute, ha.

my van is kitted out with bits of timber for racking for all my gear .
at the end of the day it gets like Dr who's TARDIS.

I love that stripey rug - almost looks like the Germans got there first and laid claim to the van floor (apologies to any Germans reading the forum - that’s just a general apology and not referring to my hurtful words)

I had a rug like that it got nicked in a break in back in 1988 when Liverpool played QPR.....

the only thing missing from Tele's van is a deck chair and cans of beers .

Luckily I had a few receipts for Rolexes so made £20k on the break in and got rid of a flea invested rug......

I love that stripey rug -

Its not a stripey rug - its the off cut from Tel's new lounge carpet!

As the manager of your local Spar shop, I would appreciate the return of our bread trays, the green ones thank you!

Back in the 90's I drove a Sherpa box van as an installer for BT.

One of the things I liked about the rear box of the van was that the 2 sets of ladders were carried internally in a completely boxed off section that was accessible from a separate small door at the rear. One of the guys had even modified this section to hold his step ladders as well...

I also thought carrying the ladders like that was much better than on latter vans where they were on the roof.

Stored internally, they were a bit more secure against theft, and it was easier to slide the ladders in and out rather than having to wrestle them off a roof rack as on later vans we used...
