What's the best way to secure items in the pass through storage area? I don't want items like tables or ladders sliding around while turning or stopping. I don't enough access to put down straps since the pass through is only about 12" high. I considered a piece of carpet remnant but I don't think would prevent much movement.....only cushioning items.

Drop in a piece of non slip rubber mat from someplace like Here

Stuff it full :B Most folks carry too much stuff.We have the same issue.....not enough stuff in pass thru compartment.So I place heavy items forward then chairs etc behind the heavy items then a couple of bungee cords to strap things together.My pass thru compartment is carpeted with indoor/outdoor carpet and everything stays put.

We have a folding table in a compartment that is only about 12" high. I screwed strips of wood to the bottom of the compartment to keep it in place. If you have a 90* angle driver you don't need much height to screw the wood in place.

Stuff the empty areas with cardboard boxes to limit the movement of the stored items.

For the smaller items we use storage bins. For the larger items the storage area is packed so tightly nothing would move, unless there was a tragedy.

How do you secure items in pass through storage?
