Storage solutions

just wondering what everyone does to store stuff in their trucks such as straps, blankets, whatever. Under seat storage is not an option as I have two kids in car seats. I'm thinking of buying a 27 gallon tote and just strapping it in the back. TIA

 

Leer locker if you go the cap route. I was on the fence about it considering the cost, but I’ve used it a lot since getting it. Holds a tremendous amount of gear.

 

Diamondback cover with cross bin. It's weather tight and secure.

 

If money were no object I'd pick up the DECKED truck bed system, but as now its 3 68-qt Plano boxes and a ratcheting bar keeper thing to keep them from sliding around. I do have a bed cover (bakflip).

 

I use a single Swingcase and it fits what I need. I keep thinking I should have gone with the double set (keyed the same), but I have a feeling I would just end up carrying more than I need.

 

I got a weather guard truck box. Works great and 11 cubic feet of lockable water tight storage.

 

I put a tonno cover on and keep a plastic tote in the bed with stuff. 2 kid seats really invalidates the under seat storage

 

You could cut a pressure treated 2x6 or 2x8 and use as a bed divider. Then just use a spare cooler as a tote....something like this...

 

I just ordered the crossbin 13 from diamondback, does it make a differences if you have a rail system or not?

 

No, the rail system isn't used for the cross bin

 

Folding 2x4 with toolbox attached to one end. Holds 5 ratchet straps, several bungees a few other goodies.
Being able to fold the board in half let’s me put in the backseat if the entire bed is required.

 

That is a clean setup.
