Show Your Storage Setup

I know there have been some threads on this in the past but none that recent so I'm going to start a new one.

that's a lot of stuff (to me anyway)

I'm using just a big purple bin and the corner of my garage, I definitely have to neaten things up as lately I've been buying products quite often, plus, with the new PC I just got I'll need a nice place to keep that !!!

This has been discussed B4,
organizing supplies
Garage organizing
storage of cleaning supplies

and has more to do with the garage than with detailing as such, so,
I moved this to "garage".

Try a search on RedcarGuy(I thinck) , he has a Palace for his car

phareous,

Looks like you and I have the same kind of cabinet. Mine is a Keter brand, made in Italy - but no longer manufactured as I found out to my annoyance.

That meant I had to scamble round the country trying to find the matching set before they were all sold out. Managed to snap up the last ones!

The only problem is the bendy shelves. They don't seem to take more than a few pounds/kg's before sagging in the middle. I'm experimenting with turning them upside down for a while to try and regain their original shape.

But otherwise they're great - clean easily, look stylish, match well. I managed to get 3 tall and 2 half-size for under the window. Later I'll put a workbench top over the 2 small ones and screw it from underneath to make a solid support.

1993 Mercedes SL500, 1991 Daimler (Vanden Plas), 1992 Miata MX5 ... Finish detailing them, then start all over again...

I have this cabinet in the garage and twice as much product on shelves in the basement.


Other products are in this cabinet. Note my dirty towel hamper and towel storage bins.

phareous,
Where did you purchase the fill top boxes. I have some and want to purchase more, but cannot find them locally or member I am looking in all the wrong places. Wally World has some, but they are not the same size and shape.

Here is my setup








The white bins are for clean and the black ones are for dirty. They are on wheels so they can be easily moved to where I am working:





Got some great ideas from Brad B.
