Yep, my own van LOOKS a mess to outsiders... but the racking contains the stuff that is permanent. Other boxes and things are in the central aisle (as seen on Tom's vans, but smaller due to being a transit connect)... they're temporary. I got AMAZINGLY lucky with the van.. my fibreglass ladder fits with a roof clamp UPSIDE DOWN on the inside of the roof of the van. Clamp hooked through one of the roof crossmembers. Great spacesaver for a smaller van

Love the comment about an eyewash station; you never know when you'll need one until you do. On that note, do you have a first aid kit/defib on the van? Maybe not on the smaller ones but I could see it being useful in the bucket truck; working in the trades and especially with electricity you might be well placed (heavens forbid) to use a defib, even though they are expensive.

Tom the eyewash kit would be more cost effective if you got the small capsules instead of the large bottles as once the bottle is opened it's probably not going to be sterile any more. The capsules are easier to direct into the eye. Essential bit of kit as you only get one pair of eyes.
