I usually load my van with tools and cutters for each job depending on what I need, and I keep every thing else in the store. I have loads of shelves, with a set space for individual items, so you know exactly where they are. I know it's quite sad, but my van is always this tidy and the cab is immaculate too.

Im not going to put up a pic of the inside of my van, might give you nightmares... I think theres a dead monkey in there somewhere...
 
Seen some great ideas for my van, especially for Silicon.
Heres some pics of mine, Ive now got a bigger van (Transit Connect) and love it. As I live in Tottenham I try not to keep any cutters or other main tools in my van, and as i dont have a shed or garage its kept in a corner in my flat!
Someone left some wooden shelves in the communal bins which i 've recycled and used in the van!

Mine also has the high roof which gives tons of room. Its only a few years old and I was lucky to get it as they sell very quickly.

Top job Spanish. I'd scrub the 'power tools' off the tool boxes, if some light fingered git sees that it'll be grab and run.
 
Very tidy spanish, now that layout would suit my van too.
But no room for pallets, maybe i should stop carrying them myself.

Good point mate had them marked up cos in the old van i had six the same but now will get the thinners out !

yeh Hillhead I get all my gear delivered, got sick of humping tiles and stone around and overloading the van.

so only ever have half a doz bags of addy and a bit of hardie backer to go in, need the roof rack for my wedi boards tho.
 
I haven't got any pics and now i'm not on the tools i dont have a van now. But I set up a mennazine level to carry underlay sheets, gave me twice as much floor space, had to it was just a little nissan largo.
My mate has a hiace long wheelbase, he's fitted a full length draw that slides in and out from in between the internal wheel arches this leaves a solid flat platform the full width and length of the van to carry anything that wont go into the draw.
Its like Dr. Who's Tardis inside :lol:
sorry no pics, I'll try to get one the next time i see him.
 
Just bought a new van, cant wait to rack it out! Getting all excited thinking about it, its just finding the time.:hurray:
 
Here is my SWB Connect. A bit of shelving and correct place for everything and it's amazing what you can fit in a small van. Also shows off the mighty Sigma collection for those curious :lol:
