Top Tips That Suit Every Handyman"s Truck Needs
Over the course of a job, you need an assortment of tools but not necessarily the same ones every day.
Hauling totes, tool boxes and even bigger things like ladders in and out to your truck is a hassle on a regular basis.
Organizing your truck bed with a variety of useful add-ons maximizes your space, protects the finish on your bed and keeps everything safe from job-site bandits when you step away.
A truck bed mat has become a standard requirement for every pickup that sees any action at all.
Truck bed mats protect the bed from scratches and save your more delicate cargo from damage.
Unlike full bed liners, which cost a fortune and are usually permanent, truck bed mats provide protection on a budget and are cut to fit the floor of your bed with only minor trimming.
Performance-grade rubber prevents damage from impacts and even stands up to most chemical spills.
Plus, the treaded top keeps cargo from shifting around and banging into your payload walls.
Best of all, after hauling a load of gravel, sand or woodchips, you can just roll-up the mat and down your bed to keep things clean.
Nobody likes to walk away and leave a bed full of tools or other valuable cargo sitting open for all to see (and get their hands on).
And, hauling your tools back and forth from your garage is no way to live.
Lock down your cargo with a roll-n-lock tonneau cover.
Built with a solid vinyl-over-aluminum design, a retractable tonneau provides peace of mind whether you're on the jobsite or out for the evening.
The compact housing and flush handle take up minimal space in back, and the weather-resistant design features drainage fittings that prevent water from building up in the housing unit.
Available in both manual and remote-locking varieties, roll-n-lock covers save you time and worry, whether you lock them with a key or the push of button.
The smartest safety add-on you'll ever find is the addition of ladder racks.
Whether you're hauling a common 6' household variety or a massive 12' ladder used for painting houses, the fact is simple: it's not going to fit in the bed of your truck.
Since there are few things more dangerous than driving around with unsecured ladders (as your local state patrolman will happily tell you), the installation of a ladder rack prevents the unintended launching of ladders when you make a quick stop.
Safety aside, truck racks compartmentalize the bed of your truck, enabling you to carry far more without having to worry about where to fit that oversize ladder.
Plus, ladder racks are ideal for transporting piping, carpet rolls, and rebar-they easily accommodate up to 500 lbs.
