- Organizing My Truck | Where Does It All Go?!
Hey guys! Sorry it's been a while since my last video, it's been super hectic since the whole world pandemic started. In this video, I get my new truck (hopefully the last "new truck" for a while), and organize all the items I bring with me on my trips as an OTR trucker. I only stay out, currently, for around a week at a time so I don't have as much stuff to bring as I used to (I used to stay out for months!). However, I wanted to show all of you how I usually prepare to organize all of my things to make the transition as smooth, and as comfortable as possible. Thanks for watching!

That's awesome to hear. Stay safe out there and keep those videos coming.
Dollar tree, it surprised me.
Went in for a couple items and came out with 28 items. I cook on my truck. Had to buy a propane burner and a skillet. Works great.
Use blue tack balls on the bottom of your storage solution trays and they won’t move...
Update how's it going with your stuff make update video?
Anti-slip mats for the cabinets... they're available everywhere that has kitchen stuff. Even grocery stores sometimes carry them.
turgsh01 Yes! They come in rolls that you can cut to fit.
Or toolbox liner
exactly what I was thinking
Shelf liner.... The honeycomb puffy stuff... Also, where the bins don't fill the space, just fill the edges with something that fits there, like Dakota's leash, or some extra socks, or heavier gloves or something. And I couldn't tell watching the video, but you'll probably want a bungee or something across that opening that you're using for snacks if there isn't one already there.
Which you can get at any dollar store! I used one in my trunk of my SUV!
Thank you for doing what you do! We need truckers more than ever in times like these!
Tim Moquin I couldn’t agree more. They are truly the ones who will keep this country going. Thanks to all of you.

Next time you are at Target or a Dollar Store check out the school supply isles and get a bunch (a dozen or so is a good start) of the flat school erasers. Sometimes I find a big canister of them for schools. They are cheap and make great spacers/wedges to keep slick bins in place by just putting them in gaps. Because of their shape they can be used flat, on their sides, stacked, etc. Easy to remove and reuse and stops a lot of sliding, just a suggestion.
That's actually a great idea! I hadn't thought of it.... Erasers are cheap, versatile, and grip really well! Great suggestion!! 🤗💙👍
Thank you for doing your part in maintaining our supply chain, especially during this time. I work in a grocery store in Maryland & ever since last Thursday (3/12) evening, it's been a struggle keeping shelves stocked. Too many people panic shopping -- great for business but that's about it... All of the stockers are worn out... But we're there everyday to support everyone in this time of need.
Those panic shoppers are hoarders and leave nothing for the rest of us. I don't like them!
I would be lost without my slow cooker. Throw something in It at the middle of my day and have it ready when I shut down for the night/day.
You can have a slow cooker in a truck? That's kinda cool.
She doesn't have an appointment inverter.
Lunch box heater....
@@georgesymons9843 They have a product called "Hot Logic" if that's what you are referring to. It's pretty awesome actually. JBG Travels uses it all the time and the food cooked in it looks amazing.
@@colleendianuzzo I have a slow cooker and a single burner electric stove from Wal-Mart. So I can also cook normally as well. I like to eat well and I don't like fast food.
Use non slip shelf liners, they come in a roll and just cut to size.
Or velcro strips would work too
Or if there's an IKEA nearby, STOPP anti-slip underlay.
I use 1 inch velvro for everything, tv remotes paper pictures on the wall etc. I agree with this recommendation
In the mist of All of the COVD Isolation and news I was happy to see the new video to take my mind off of all of this mess. Stay safe out there Shelby!
Thank you for all that you and other truck drivers are doing during this rough time. We appreciate y’all so much! 🙏🏼❤️
You are so organized! From placing all your stuff on your bed to placing it in the truck! Thanks for another great video! You too BK, thank you! Stay safe!
Love your practicality about your stuff! Everything has its spot and if it doesn't fit you can figure out a way so that it does! Smart smart smart!
This is EXACTLY what I've been planning on doing when I get my own truck. Love it!
Loving the truck tour! Thank you. I help my trucker organize his truck and this is helpful!
Let thank this wonderful lady for hailing supplies when we need them the most :) (all truckers as well)
I LOVE your random “bits” of knowledge sprinkled throughout your videos.
Hey Shelby - Stay safe out there and keep the shiny side up. Keep doing what you're doing 'cause you're doing it right. Love you much! 💖💖
Dream girl right here. So down to earth. Takes nothing for granted, content with what she does. 😍😍😍
Thank you so much for all you and your fellow drivers are doing for our country. I’m not a truck driver but I come from a looooong line of truck drivers. I have mad respect for your trade. I love your videos and find your content so fascinating. Again, thank you for helping to keep America alive. ❤️🌈☀️
God bless y’all! Keep rocking y’all!
The sleeper on that 5700 looks so spacious!
For clothing i recommend packing cubes i roll my clothes .I have been living in a truck going 19 yrs now.
Your insights and suggestions have been invaluable. Thank you!
Thank you so much for bringing the supplies/necessities to the stores on these stressful and hard times, we owe you truckers!
Yes. YOU DO. And you can start by driving like you know what your doin. We truckers would REALLY appreciate that.
Thank you for being a huge part in keeping America running!!!
Ah, a video to help me take my mind off of this pandemic.
Sure glad you get to travel with your Adorable Puppy Dog. 👍
to fill spaces so stuff doesn't shift around, get some Styrofoam pieces (flat, square, round in varying sizes) from a craft store to keep the stuff in place
SHELBY congratulations on reaching "100,000" I knew when taking very long but" WOW". I've been doing this for OVER 30 years you're making us look good
You’re so organized 👏
Great video Shelby
Please make sure you and Dakota safe out there in these hard times, we all need to two of u to keep are shelves full of needed supplies and are minds full with these great videos
I love that Dakota has a vest as well! The organization looks awesome! for the drawers, you could use mats that are cut to fit for tool boxes to keep things from sliding around. Keep up the great work!
Way more organized then me. I could have a road trip planned for months and the night before I’m jamming stuff into a backpack
Awesome! Arrangements and lovely
You make trucking looks so fun! Dang I need to get my love for it back. Your videos make me want to get on the road and go hard!
Love your videos! I work in a hospital setting so watching your videos really help with my stress at these crazy times. Thank you! ❤️
Love that pup.
Congrats on 100k subs!!!!!!! So happy how things are going for you! Thank you for all that you do Shelby!
Hey Shelby! I’m so happy to see that safety vest. And I’m impressed, you have one for Your dog too! Kudos to you! Ha. I’m amazed at how much room you have in your truck! Well, be SAFE and keep the vids coming!
Another great helpful video shelby take care x
thank you for upping my storage game, seriously.
Another great video !!
That truck is like a mini studio!!!! So cool!!
Welcome back, stay safe
Thanks for bringing us the tp!
Shelby - you are SO awesome!! Thanx for all you do. I have the utmost respect and admiration for Truckers - you're the ones who truly keep this country moving, especially in these days and times. Please take good care of yourself (and sweet Dakota too!). :)
Your organizational skills are off the chain! Almost makes me wanna be a truck driver... if I wasn't an old man, that is... LOL!! Thanx again for your awesome vids/vlogs! :)
I love organizing stuff and you over think it just like I do! 😂 Everything has its place. Awesome job! 👍
Never happy with my stuff in the truck, every time I stop for more than a few hours i redo the whole thing. You'd think after 19 years I'd find a system I like...flatbedders always hoarding stuff
I was just in the middle of watching all your videos, guess I can keep going 😊
Hello, I am happy to watch your videos, a great truck, greetings from Russia.
Thank you!!!! I really need this
Great video Shelby! take care!!
stay safe and keep rollin' - love your vids
A great video for tips on being organized. Stay safe Shelby.
Great Vid Love!! Keep them coming
🙏🙏🙏👍
I hope you’re well and safe!❤️
Shelby lookup "Silicone Nano Tape" RV'ers and Sailors use it to stick things down on moving things. If you have something rattling it is double sided for sticking. You stretch it like Command Adhesive to remove it. It's clear so it's invisible.
Be safe out there! Our stores have empty shelves also.. thanks to the inconsiderate people out there who think ONLY of themselves... I'm retired from trucking.... Thank You for what you and the rest of the Truckers are doing out there! God Bless you
Some of the inventory out of the stores is because people are not eating out like before.
Every time I bought a new truck it amazed me how much I carried thanks for sharing pull toy here
I just realized while watching this that I could go to our storage and start organizing it for the camping season since no one would be there!
We have a St Bernard. Hair everywhere. We use the hair extraction comb thing. It really reduces hair that falls off dog. Of course there are certain times that dogs eject there coats as seasons change. Be Safe 😊
That’s So Good The Coffee Commercial 💯
Covfefe!...I see what ya did there. 😉
New to trucking here, new to your channel which is a good find to help me make my own way. So thanks for what you do.
I live in GA and our grocery stores are fully stocked except for toilet paper and any kind of disinfectant products, they have been doing an awesome job of restocking and a lot of it is due to you truck drivers, God bless you all !
Love your truck, with all the wood cabinets. Looks nice 👍
I live in Portland Oregon and it has been so crazy there is no toilet paper in any of the stores and everyone is walking around in a daze the anxiety is thick. My prayers are that we love each other and help each other through this. I was so excited to see you had another video up. Your positive videos and energy will help us get through this. Lots of love girl be safe out there!! Keep them coming!
Its such acozy comfy truck organized 👍
Love your channel.And your energy
So damn cute!!! Just adorable.. Doggy's cute too.
Awwww - she's a cool doggie - look she want to drive !!!! And I bet if she had hands she would and could !!!!! :)
Great info for RV Vans and Travel trailers
GOTTA LOVE THAT DOG!😁
Thank you Shelby !!
Great organization..Thank you for the video..Have a blessed day..
Lol. That hotline number did it for me, subscriber for life. Y’all are amazing. 🤗
love all the space you have to carry your items. I drive away new transport vehicles so I have to limit my stuff to one suitcase and one backpack so makes things very limited. That living space looks so appealing!!
Love what you do
Buy some sponges and double sided tape. Cut the sponges to fit the gap for your bins. Then just use the tape to put them on the side of the bins. Everything stays in place and no noise.
Enjoyed the video! Very cool truck.
Anti-slip mats work really well in drawers. It comes in a roll. Just cut to size.
Here we go!!!!
Your organizational skills are top notch👍👍
i really love how neat you keep your truck. #truckerlife
I randomly stumbled upon one of your videos here on youtube and I was hooked from the first minute soooo.....I just watched them all in one go :) You are amazing in showing and telling what you do and I have to say that you couldn't have found a better camera man then the one you have. Great job you guyz!!!
Greetings from Norway
Black Kodiak does some great fun editing on your videos...the transition is clean..🎬📷🎥
I love the windows in your bunk. Even cooler there tinted
Great job. Be safe on the road
Good vid Driver I roll all my Clothing I found that with the limited space In My truck you can pack quite a lot and the bonus is no fold marks and not too many wrinkles.
Be safe out there and bless you, your camera man and the puppy dog.
Wow, heck of a lot more organized than I am, bravo.
Nice job Shelby!
I have the same peach fuzzy blanket in my truck! I do the same thing....I put so much thought and preparation into organizing our truck. Hubby keeps the outside clean and I keep the inside clean. I like your videos. Thanks for not making it seem like all female truckers are just looking for attention. You take it seriously. You're pretty too! 🤗 Be safe!
That truck is huge.
You are a good person and a great truck driver
Velcro strips also work real well for keeping larger bins from moving around. You can buy a roll of it and cut it to any size you need.
Ahhh, totally understandable about the safety vest.
We have 2 grocery stores in the town where I live and the one is doing really well as far as making sure that people don't hoard things such a toilet paper and such. The other store isn't doing things that way. So it's more knowing what you need and hopefully being able to find it.
I'm with you, I don't worry about a microwave in the truck anymore, but I DO have a mini George Foreman grill for hamburgers and grilled chicken! I'm also a gamer, so I've got a T.V. and my PlayStation in here too 🎮📺😉. Stay safe, driver! And that heckin' cute doggie too!🚛
Good place for your vest, I keep mine where the CB would go. Enjoying your videos :)
I use tool drawer liner a lot in vehicles to help stuff from sliding. It's a bit cushy as well. Comes in huge roll in hardware store tool box area. O ly pro lem is its black. Similar rolls.of kitchen draw/cabinets are available as already commented. Tks for sharing. Love the videography!
Awesome job don't it feel good to have everything organized makes you feel fresh all the way around, P.S thank you to ALL TRUCK DRIVERS for bringing our daily products to our cities in this time of crisis. God Bless you out there be safe. 👍😷🙋♂️
Thank you 🥰
Safety first ALWAYS
