Organizing trailers Inside.

We all talk about trailers and the pros and cons. Seems that the majority use trailers over cube trucks. Personally I have used both trailers and cube trucks. I loved the cube truck because you only had the one unit to worry about and still had the versatility to tow behind and additional small trailer for those big jobs or long distance ones. I made a folding ramp (similar to the rear ramp tailgate of those lawn care box trucks someone posted a link to before) operated by a elec. boat winch to raise/lower it, worked great. Currently I use a v-nose 8x22 (1 front door, 1 front steep ramp door, and large rear ramp door), sold as a 4 place snosled trailer, so it's only 5 ft tall inside. I also use a 6x12 landscape trailer all open with a ramp split tailgate. The question is how about those that claimed to be 'Organized' showing the rest of us how you have designed the inside. You know the stencil hanging method. That seems to be the area that I struggle with. Some stencils don't have much area for a border and are extremely flimsy and don't hang well. I did put a shelf up down the entire rt side with a 2" lip and dividers every 4" to keep loose things on. Such as chalk lines, chalk, measuring wheels, gun & cable kits, flashlights, tape, lots of wire brushes , and millions more small items. That works quite well. The paint I have to be carefull as to where it is placed or it makes the trailer sway (too much in the rear) . That can get scary. Can we post some pictures of our trailers interior? By the way, I used some reflective lettering for the main line on the trailer advertising. WOW does that ever draw attention when you are in a lot at night . All anyone has to do is swing their headlights near the trailer and the heading just POPS out. You'd sware that it was illuminated. I wish I had done all the lettering in reflective. But maybe that would have been too much. Blaine

Mucho thanks for the tip on reflective lettering. Just now ordering logos for new equipment.

I'll post some pics if I remember to take my camera. One thing I do to put the medium ("24"and 36" letters; medium arrows ;handicap) stencils in is take 2 X 2's about 3' or 4' long and screw them to the wall vertically about 3' apart. Then take some luan and put on top of the 2 X 2's, making a little "pocket" to slide stencils in. Then you can make another one right on top of that one. I usually make the outer one a little shorter. I put the larger stencils in the back pocket, and the 24" ones in the front. I made 2 of the double pockets side by side, so I have 4 pockets that only come out from the wall about 4 1/2".

The Door: Forgotten Storage Area! I use the door space to store chalk, marking gun, chalk lines, 2 - 300' tapes and we clip the master plan there when we do new work....
