Trailer storage solutions (post #186031)
airbalance on Fri, 03/12/2010 - 17:49
Ready to buy a trailer for storage of tools and as a small workshop. I have seen some trailers out there that looked good and some looked bad. So my question, give me ideas, if you were starting from scratch, and money wasn't the main driving force, how would you arrange your 6x20 foot trailer so you can store tools and have a small shop for remodeling houses. Would like to see pictures, if possible.

You might try an archive search. Idon't know how well that works now in the new site, but there have been some good discussions and photos, including miine in the past.
Most did not include shop/work space though. Iwould probably plan to include some sort of awning, or one of thiose quick set up shelters about 10x16. That would be set up so the storage is more to the front of trlr, and the working tools near the back, with the shelter extending that space beyond.
mine is 6x14 and frankly, on remo work, half the tools end up ionside the house where the work is being done anyways. When I set up with shelter on the job it is to be milling custom moldings etc when the site scenario allows.
'course, my remos are on vacant houses, not with dwellers present generally
or try this site for the whole gang
