[QUOTE="Luke Robinson, post: 47455, member: 853"] Re: Moving gear in your van I have been doing the van thing for years, i switched away from a trailer because it is just easier to get around especially in the city (philadelphia). I have gotten it down to a science I have outfitted 5 vans the same way. First off I line the floor with some 3/4 inch plywood. it takes two sheets to do the job, and I cover up the step on the side door, to add the extra flat cargo space. now wheels roll in the van very easily. then I add a divider between the cab and the back, as well as window screens to prevent gear from breaking out the windows. you can get both from [URL="http://www.americanvan.com"]www.americanvan.com[/URL] then I add in the [URL="http://www.discountramps.com/portable-wheelchair-ramps.htm"]handy wheelchair folding ramp[/URL] that is very easy for one man to handle. last I get some e-track from a local supplier to make it easier to strap things in. yes it can cost a few bucks to do it all, but it makes things a whole lot easier to deal with, when you have the ramp you don't have to get too worried about case size, as long as it fits in the van you can handle it yourself. and you can use the ramp to go to the ground or up to a loading dock. hope this helps [/QUOTE]
