I'm interested in seeing some pictures of how you guys set up your side by sides for trapping. I'm getting a new one and I am thinking about building a box for the back of it that would be water proof and keep everything separated. Any ideas would be great.

I put two of the large black waterproof storage boxes Lowe’s sells the in my bed and still leaves room on n the middle for animals. The lids open from each side towards the middle. I also built a trailer hitch rack to haul off carcasses.

This is what I built. I have a drawer for baits and lures. Another for tools. 3 cutouts on top for buckets of waxed sand and 2 trays for traps.

I also bought a new buggy, so will have to make a few modifications. I'm going to make it slide in the box, instead of removing box and mounting this one.

I also built a carrier for the front to put critters in.

Here is my setup. As you can see from the last pic to the first, it is still evolving and I have a few more changes I want to make. But the top pic is way yonder better than factory setup.

I usually do that then everything gets get mixed in and dirty and sometimes rained on....Im very particular about scent control and it drove me nuts last year. That's why I'm looking for a good change up.

The drawers are a cool idea.

This roof is the coolest thing:

These folks were at the NTA with some of their weatherproof storage solutions on display. Rollout drawers were nice. Not cheap but they looked to be well built.

AnyGlide - AnyBox Versatile Cargo Storage

They have products for Trucks, ATVs and UTVs

Weatherproof and slide out access checks off a couple of boxes IMO.
