Default What do you carry your detailing supplies in?

I don't have a house, so I have no garage shelves to put things on. I go to my g/f's apartment complex since they have a free water/hose hookup. I throw the supplies I'll use for the day in my wash bucket usually, and all my towels and mitts are in a big bed bath and beyond plastic bag.

I've been looking for something a little more useful for the supplies at the lease. Target has some carry trays but they didn't see ideal.

Has anyone seen anything that holds supplies and towels. Towels would have to be in a covered portion of the carrier.

Default I have lots of 5 gallon buckets and shelves in the garage.

Towels have clean and dirty buckets, soap, etc. has another bucket, etc., etc.

I buy laundry soap in 5 gallon buckets.

Default I live in an apartment and...

I am fortunate enough to have a hose fitting so this is what I do:

I have a big laundry cart from Ralphs, cost =$20.
I keep the hose in the cart. I also keep a bucket in the cart, and my big jub of soap in the bucket. After I wash my towels, I put them in a grocery or garbage bag to keep them clean, then throw in the cart.

When it is cleaning time, I roll this bad boy out back to the hose fitting.
Very ez- all self contained.

Default You sound like me. I also live in a complex. I have the stuff in a spare bedroom in a big

cardboard box. I also have a big square plastic storage container in my garage spot that I keep towels, the California dash and car duster, flannel buffing cloths, one bottle of Show Off, ERV, Eiman Fabrik, paper towels, and a Turbo Tiger vacuum.
