2007 long bed: Storage options, access - Toyota Tundra Forums : Tundra Solutions Forum

Greetings from St. Louis, Missouri. I am the GM for a small pest control company and recently purchased a 2007 Tundra long bed to serve our company. I am appreciative of this site and have some questions for the experts out there.

1. We will be carrying bug chemical tanks, bait boxes, chemicals, and several loose items that were previously organized in a vehicle trunk. What do you recommend I install in the truck bed as far as storage and organization for these items? We looked at a basic metal bed box today, but notice it doesn't have any way to organize our items.

2. Myself and employees will be making 20+ trips to the truck bed/storage box to retrieve the aforementioned items at client locations. Because the truck bed is very deep, what items are out there, IE steps, rails, etc. that would be the perfect solution to easing access?

Thanks a bunch for any help and advice. Regards, -Scott in St. Louis c/o The Bug Doctors, Inc.

OK, let's see. Could you use a drawer unit?

Or, perhaps a high side box:

Googled bed storage and found this site. Many more listed.

The drawer or unit could possibly work, but our bug tanks are 18" high. At some point, we might want to install a termite tank/pump and bed cover, so ideally we would want a box that includes organizers but that doesn't hang over the top of the bed.

From what you describe, it seems that something like this would be more functional.
