How neat or scruffy is the back of your van

[Jeff the tiler]

Does not matter how hard I try to keep my van tidy by Wednesday it is always a mess again. So it got me thinking perhaps we could look at who has the tidiest back of their van for inspiration and who has the scruffiest :smilewinkgrin:

Jeff, I'll move this into the arms away from prying eyes.

 

[Jeff the tiler]

No Problems. Good thinking.

I used to be terrible at keeping my van in order, I have enough racking now, so everything has its place.

Always keep the inside of my van top notch. Floors always clear & all tools have a place. Just makes operating a little bit easier & you know if a tool is missing

Hoping I can keep mine clean. Was about to buy some ply racking but just bought the ply and made it myself for £30 instead of £130 !

Nice one Neale. That way you can make it to suit your tools, not the other way around.

All that racking at the back of my van was about £40, some 3x2 and some loft chipboard. Best thing about doing it yourself is you can tailor it to your tools, the pre-made racking always seems to have shelves that are too small for tilers tools.

I just went for the small shelves on top of the wheel arch. I have bought 4 new Fatmax tool boxes for the expensive tools that i want off over night. The shelves just used for the light stuff.

Racking out the van is the way forward. Makes thing so much easier.
You know where everything is, it's easy to get at and you not fighting trying to get at tools at the bottom of the piles, and no rattles!!!!!!:incazzato:
My mates a cabinet maker so as i tiled his shower room, he drove off to his unit and racked the van out, great swap!!
