Same here. All set up gear is on one side then other camping gear on the other.

Same here. If you measure your pass through, you can make the space utilization very effective.
1) Measure your pass through door opening height and width.
2) Measure the inside dimensions of the pass through compartment, again, height and width.
3) Measure the inside length of the pass through compartment (from one door to the other.

What I did was took these measurements to Walmart and went to the isle they had the Sterlight storage tubs. I found a tub that was almost exactly half the width of the pass through compartment and 1/3 the height. It was a little less than half the length. So stacking these three high used up about 25% of the pass through compartment.

I use them for Electrical, plumbing and sewer. They get put on the front half of the road side and I put my lawn mat and easy up canopy in the back half of the road side. Pretty much fills the majority of that half of the pass through with a few other small items tucked in.

The curb side gets my 2 lanterns, propane stove and Weber Q, tools, pancake air compressor, bucket, misc items.

Set up and towing hardware on driver side. Camping gear etc on the passenger side. However its usually total chaos once the kids get at it.

Hi kckettridge,

It was an option that I ordered w/ my trailer. It's a killer accessory and sturdy as heck! You can try and contact Lance Parts dept and ask them how much they are:

As far as I know, they'll be happy to sell you one. And as far as to who actually manufacturers the bin, I think it's Lippert (the slide-out company) You might also hang out at the Lance Owners of America (LOA) and see if anyone is giving one way for free. Some people order it and turns out, they don't like it.

Call Lance and they'll help you.

My Lance 1685 has 1 pass through, and an "almost" all the way passthrough (under the bed)

In the regular pass through I have a sliding bin, like the one here:



In the slider I put camping gear, fishing equipment, axe, tools, electric heater. Plus I have room for a small Honda or Yamaha generator (2000i)

In the "almost pass through" I have 3 plastic bins (laundry basket sized) and I put all the things that I might need to access in the trailer, in here. Like extra paper towel, oversized pots and pans, books, and radio equipment and board games - and there is plenty of room left over in this compartment as well.

Woodglue....where did you get that sliding pass through storage bin? That's a cool idea.

I put my Coleman Roadtrip, my hook for the awning, my gas for the stove and a battery charger and 1 big black garbage bag for when I have to get under the the trailer.

I took an old piece of carpet that came out of the sticks n bricks, and cut it to fit the floor in the pass thru. It keeps things from sliding around. Literally, everything is always exactly where I left it when I arrive.
I also put a paper towel holder on both curbside and streetside, so I have those handy for whatever need. On the streetside, I have a couple of plastic "milk crates" ( you can get them at Lowe's ) that I use to organize items. One for electrical, one for plumbing, etc.
I also screwed some heavy duty cup hooks in various places to hang things like whiskbroom, extra flashlight, extendable wash wand, roll of duct tape, extra cable for television hookup, etc
