The Best Storage Solutions to Organize Your Truck

Interior Organization

Your truck’s interior is one of the most prevalent locations to accumulate messes. Yesterday’s energy drink can, your kids’ half-eaten crackers, and your partner’s collection of receipts and straw wrappers wedged in the passenger door pocket all detract from your truck’s interior. Fortunately, we carry all the interior organization accessories to keep your truck clean and tidy.

Take advantage of the unused space below your pickup’s rear seats with an under-seat organizer. These robust plastic tubs come custom-molded to the contours of your truck’s cab, ensuring a snug, flawless fitment. Heavy-duty construction and integrated dividers help to keep your cargo organized, regardless of the type. Whether lugging sharp tools, automotive fluids, or emergency gear, an under-seat organizer keeps your valuables organized and hidden—it’s the ultimate companion for any truck owner.

Does your pickup's bed often fall short? Especially on applications with short, 5–6.5-ft. beds, loading oversized cargo, like lumber or sheetrock, can be next to impossible. Fortunately, RealTruck has the solution—premium truck bed extenders. 

These practical accessories function as cargo dividers with the tailgate closed and bed extensions with the tailgate lowered, adding nearly two feet of cargo space for most applications. Once initial installation is complete, removal typically takes seconds with no tools required.

RealTruck Expert Recommendation: AMP Research® BedXTender HD Max

For maximum cargo space, check out the AMP Research® BedXTender HD Max from RealTruck. With a simple drop of the tailgate and flip of the extender, this product expands cargo space by up to two feet, transforming your pickup’s measly 5.5-ft. bed into a full eight feet of cargo space.

Cargo Bars

Cargo bars, also called cargo dividers, stretch horizontally across your pickup’s bed to section off the cargo space. These accessories typically feature adjustable designs for simple, tool-free installation and removal, allowing positioning at any point throughout the bed. Whether cinched up against an oversized item or used to divide the bed into two separate sections, cargo bars are a handy tool that any pickup owner should have in their arsenal. 

RealTruck Expert Recommendation: Lund® Ratcheting Cargo Bar

Cargo Bags

Cargo bags may look similar to cargo bars, though they serve a different function. Rather than dividing the bed, cargo bags create a separate cargo area of their own, typically utilizing two parallel poles stretching the width of the bed with a canvas or fabric bag suspended between. 

Cargo bags are ideal for loading smaller cargo that you won't want to slide around the bed, such as groceries, spare fluids, and more.

Truck Bed Covers

Lastly, let’s tackle truck bed covers, also called tonneau covers. While organization isn’t a tonneau cover’s primary purpose, these accessories help to keep your pickup’s bed clean, dry, and secure. Pair a truck bed cover with the previously-referenced storage solutions for the ultimate bed space that’s both organized and secure. 

At RealTruck, we offer several tonneau cover styles and brands, including folding, one-piece, retractable, and roll-up. Check out the top products from RealTruck’s own TruXedo, BAK® Industries, UnderCover, and more for unmatched quality and support.
