i can`t figure out the best way to carry all of my detailing products from my basement to my car.

i don`t have a garage so i need to make a few trips with all of my spray bottles, canisters, etc...

does anyone have a suggestion to carry all of these tall spray bottles, towels, etc., neatly packed?

thanks!

I have a garage, but when I am doing stuff outside I wheel my cart out next to the car. I put what I am going to need in the cart, and just take it with me outside. It looks like this, you can get them at Sears for like $60.

I put a lot of the stuff in the two 5-gal buckets I tote outside.



Also go to a local cheapo store and look for containers with tops. I put my towels and stuff in there to prevent them from getting dirty. Use Ziplock baggies too, I prefer the Freezer Galon bags with the little place to label them. I have sharpies everywhere to mark them.



ENJOY!

A $4 plastic "milk crate" box from one of the home stores like Linens & Things. Holds a suprising # of bottles, and if they get wet or drip, it exits the box.

I use my 2 5 gallon buckets from the 2 bucket wash method. Labeled with sharpies of course:bounce

I leave it all in the trunk. I used to tote it around with me but after awhile it just got to be too much stuff. I wish I had a garage to store it all in. Once I have a garage I`ll thin it down some.

a big, cheapy plastic container. My towels are in an old cardboard box! All this in a BMW. Can`t afford a nice container!

I use a duffel bag.



I got it free somewhere and dug it out of my closet.



Works great. I have everything but big towels in there. Those I put in the bucket.

We should have a contest. Whoever can correctly name the most products in that duffle bag or my trunk wins. :) I like your bag. I started out like that and then it just got out of control. I want to get it all into a garage and go back to the bag. My trunk would thank me. :)

Maroon bottle with the white residue is Meguiars

I see a bottle of Z2 half hidden to the left

Z16 up top

303 is the big white spray nozzle

Z6 is the black spray nozzle

The blue tipped spray nozzle looks like some Armor All product



How`d I do?????

If I carried my stuff with me I would need a trailer!:p Since these pictures were taken I have added 6 bins!

Right now, my detailing supplies are stored in 2 milk crates and the buckets. Pretty soon, I am going to invest in those large sealable containers. :D

here are your answers.



Everything is correct except I do not have Armor All products. What you see is Windex.

I bought 2 of the 5 gallon buckets from Home Depot for $3.50 each and they hold everything quite well. I store my MF towels in gallon sized Zip-Locks.



I like the milk crate idea, though! Someday, I`ll get around to adding cabinets to my garage and really get organized.
