Do you just keep all of your stuff in your car? Or do you have some kind of folding table to put your towels and bottles? Last weekend I detailed my friend's cars and put all of the stuff on the driveway or on a large towel. It worked, but didn't seem very "professional" to me.
 
I do the same thing. I think that I may go the folding picnic table route. Although that may have to wait a while since most of the money I've earned so far is going to better equipment and marketing.
 
My stuff sits in buckets and in bags in my trunk. My towels are in plastic Rubbermaid tote boxes. Neat and compact. Not too bad. The table route would seem nicer, but is too much stuff to be hauling around for me.
 
I work right out of the truck.

I keep a tent and 3 duffle bags in the truck. One blue bag for towels, one red bag for supplies one bag for dirty towels.

I have 2 2gallon containers, one with trim shine and one mixed and ready to use of apc +
 
I keep everything in the back my truck. I've got a pic of all my stuff somewhere I'll have to pull a link up to.



I'm going to be reorganizing everything in there again.
 
My products are all kept neat and tidy in the back of my truck in enclosed containers.



A container for my polishes, cleaners and sealants.



Another for my spray bottles and another for QD's, metal polishes and specialized products.



My towels are kept in a large enclosed bin and inside there they are all kept in bags. Seperated by use.



My wash buckets have Auto-Boss cargo nets which contain all my washing goodies.



My Cyclo and rotary are kept in a small container and my PC in another container. Pads are all seperated and each has its own container.



A place for everything and everything in its place!

dang, I can't even imagine how tidy your home is :D. Yeah, I have my pads and MF in labeled bags. Those with my towels all pile into a laundry basket while my exterior bottles are in one bucket and all of my interior stuff in another.

I was hoping one of you guys had some motorized thing where at a push of the button a entire rack of gear appears :D.
 
I use to work out of the back of my truck and I kept everything in crates. There is no need to take everyting out of your truck. You'll end up tripping over everything. Take out what you need and put it back when you are done. I have a trailer now. I keep all my cleaning supplies on shelves. Vacuum hoses, extractor hose, extension cords, garden hose and canopy are all hanging from the wall. Buffers, towels, pads, bonnets, brushes, etc are all kept in draws.
 
I use 4 huge rubber maid containers. One for my chemicals, one for my polishers, buffer and extention cord. One for clean towels and clean bonnets and pads, and the last one I throw all my dirty towels and stuff. The only thing That sits alone in the truck is a hose. And power washer, gererator and extractor. When Im working I flip the container lids upside down on the top of the containers and use it like a table. These are huge containers.
