Cargo Trailer Shelving & Storage Options

So you need a cargo trailer -- and you need some interior organization for that trailer, too. Good news! ALCOM builds the lightest, most durable all-aluminum cargo trailers on the market. Today we're exploring shelving and storage options for your enclosed cargo trailer from ALCOM.

Built-In Storage

Add storage cabinets, hooks, and tracks to your trailer when you order it and let ALCOM do the installation work for you! It's as easy as narrowing down your must-have options from the ALCOM accessory menu, which we've jam-packed with options like: 

• Overhead and base cabinets for the V-nose, side wall, or L-shaped base cabinet if you choose a trailer model with a flat front. With two- and four-door cabinets available, you can be ready to organize your trailer as soon as you tow it home for the first time. 

• Wall track lets you attach organization accessories to enclosed cargo trailer walls (more on that in a minute). Let ALCOM install the wall track system of your choice, like airline track, aluminum E-track, or steel E-track.  
• Wall and ceiling hooks let you hang tools, coats, cords and more to keep them organized during travel.
• Add a work bench with integrated tool storage; an interior tire rack; or a cupholder.

New for 2025: upgrade your trailer's wall studs to .080". With a wall stud upgrade, your trailer is also eligible for extra height, available in 3" increments. 

Custom DIY Storage    

If you prefer the completely custom route, or want to supplement your storage cabinets with even more organization, try your hand at a do-it-yourself trailer storage buildout! We've shown you one ALCOM customer's DIY camper trailer buildout, and a lot of the same construction skills apply to fitting out a trailer for storage and organization. YouTube is full of "how we did it" videos from DIY-ers who have gone before you, sharing their tips, tricks, and lessons learned for specific projects of all kinds. 

What will you build into your trailer? Some of our favorite build-it-yourself ideas: 

• Storage shelving or cabinets designed to your exact specs
• A tool storage box in your trailer's V-nose with storage hooks above it
• A fold-up work bench on the trailer wall
• A work bench with built-in storage underneath
• Why not go all-out and create an entire mobile workshop? Check out this tour of a Mission enclosed trailer turned Smart Woodshop! 

With ALCOM's wall track options, you can also create custom and adaptable storage solutions that mount exactly where you need them -- even if your needs change from one project to the next. There's a huge selection of E-track accessories for sale, like: 

• Bucket holders, spare tire racks, and cargo bars  
• Storage bins and boxes, tool hooks, hose and cord racks, D-rings and cargo straps
• Brackets for additions like a folding workbench or custom shelving  

With your storage, shelving and organization solutions in place, you're ready for any job and can always find the tools or supplies you need inside your cargo trailer.
