Tips for Storing Items on Crawl Space Vapor Barrier

[@Jacob_Studer]

We are buying a new home in Idaho that has a decent size crawl space, 3-4’ I think. It is not ventilated and has a fan permanently running. They call it a “conditioned crawl space” and it also has lights and outlets in it. There is also ground barrier and insulation around all the foundation walls since it’s not ventilated. It seems very well done and very ideal for storage due to these factors. I am used to basements though, this will be my first property with a crawl space. Any suggestions for using this space as storage with all the above in mind?

Encapsulated crawl spaces becoming a storage area is common and what we aim to provide!

Three foot crawlspace, want to use plastic storage tubs down there. Trying to find the most cost effective protection for the vapor barrier. Was thinking sturdy canvas tarps. What do you think? Do you have other suggestions?

We have a three foot indirectly sunlit, open (just slats) crawlspace under half of our house, and a half above-ground basement room with windows opening 5 inches above the ground. Under the house is dry and so whenever the there's a breeze, fine dirt just blows in through the basement jalousie windows. We don't really need to store anything under the house, but what should I use to keep the dirt/dust down and not blowing in?

Can you seal it up with block/mortar?
