Today was some more repetitive shit, basically moving more hardware from the garage down to the trailer, but the biggest part of the move was clearing the last two metal shelves so they can be moved and staged in the bathroom nook of the trailer.
I had to bring a couple of large buckets up to the garage in order to put a bunch of contents from one of the shelves but because of the sheer amount of shit that was on these shelves, those two buckets were not enough. I ended up storing a bunch of the contents on the floor in a pile to be picked up probably tomorrow morning. I moved some of the larger stuff, like a couple of boxes of rolled up wire and another portable tire pump along with some old paint cans. While putting the stuff we staged into the back of the truck we decided to empty out the many 2 liter soda bottles of water that were kept on the bottom of one of the pallet shelves in order to throw the empty bottles in the truck for later disposal. I had to cut the top shelf from one of the shelving units before bringing it into the trailer. I also had to break up this decorative pipe cover on the floor that covered the drain and water lines running over to where the bathroom sink used to be. After busting that wood/particle board up and out I was able to set up one of the shelves in that corner nicely, while setting up the other shelf in the tub nook nicely. I secured the shelves against the walls with screws. Next I took the three shelf panels I salvaged from the rickety metal shelf that was behind the old shed and installed them in the gaps between the original shelves on the unit. This gives me seven shelves to store a lot of shit on. Now with the two shelves in place I can start sorting out the shit I brought down in the buckets as well as the other shit that I pulled from the shelves in the garage. Once this is done then the inventory organization part of the storage trailer and the next stage is the clearing of the remaining junk from the garage and the sorting of the remaining items that are going to be kept, all the large shit that can't be put in the trailer, like engines and transmissions.
