Buy once, cry once....then you're set up for YEARS, the way you want.
Would love to work out of a van set up as nice as this - maybe one day!
Love it. Too often tradespeople end up stuck in the past and get very little efficiency out of their DAILY DRIVER AND MAIN TOOL-THE VAN. It actually blows my mind how much flack a guy gets when he trys to actually set up a van in an organised way. Great setup. Not much more needs to be said. You really covered it all. I'm an electrician and so much of what you have done transfers over to our trade as well. A+
As an electrician, I found your electrician repellent tool amusing.
Lol thanks. It’s all for fun
You know it's funny because in the UK the broom is also an electrician repellent tool :)
@@nindes 😂
I have so much respect for guys that keep their tools organized and their trucks stocked. You would not believe how many fellas roll into the job site and waste so much time looking for tools, looking for fittings and running to the supply houses for under stocking the basics. You don't need to stock a store, but have enough for the current project and for the occasional hiccup. Nice set up.
I was so tempted to thumbs down for that electrician joke, lol. But this is a wonderful van build, thanks for sharing!
You have to admit, it's not much of an exaggeration.
What he said about electricians?
Love my ford transit medium top. I’m a plumber too. Life’s great when you can stand.
What an amazing difference over the old style vans
As a mostly underground plumber, I envy that service plumbers are able to keep such clean vans
I’m an electrician, nice jab at us sparky’s. I really like your van set up. I would like to see how you built it.
Really like the use of that light and m18 batteries. You should do a video on that!!
Would really like to see a video of this as well! Great setup.
I'm so impressed..... Just so well fabricated and neat
I'm a carpentry contractor and I have to say your setup awsome very efficient and easy
Thanks!
I love the unistrut/pipe wrench method!
This is an amazing set up you got here. I’m an electrican and I’ll have to let that little dig about not knowing how to use a broom go because I’m jealous as hell that my van isn’t set up like yours!
Its all for fun (the broom comment). The van has been great. All loaded up for an install today!
I would really like to see a close up of the unistrut pipe wrench bracket. That was a really good way to store pipe wrenches.
Love it. Nothing like a professional looking truck. Good job brother
Those transits are a whole lot quieter as it is, not just the composite wall making it quite, I'm sure it helps, but I drive one with a metal decoder, and it's day and night difference between driving an E-350
If you mount the batteries at the front onto a plywood sheet, then mount the plywood to a pack out dock you can take all the batteries in at the same time.
Awesome organization, I’m impressed. I just got my pack out and put all my Parker hydraulic fittings, karrykrimp, dies, pneumatic and manual hydraulic pumps and all my hand tools for making and replacing hydraulic hoses.
I live in Minnesota I never brought my batteries in last year and they all worked perfect even when it hit 30 below zero, I’ve got some Dewalt and they did that, I had to bring those in
Most days they're fine. The problem is when they aren't and all I would've had to do is keep them warmer.
Great job on the van organization. One of the best layouts I've seen so far. Many Milwaukee packout vans out there but most don't have room built in for pipe, threader, ladders...
A guy that takes this effort in his van is the man you want to work on your plumbing as he is obviously a perfectionist great loadout
That’s exactly the way I want to do my van when I get it
Everything in one place where you know where it is and not just chucked in the back
Like the idea of the battery charger in back to I wonder if you could install bank battery in it to charge a couple of batteries at same time
33 year old master plumber in Mass and New Hampshire. I’m looking at different options myself great job will definitely use some of you are ingenuity.
You truck is awesome bro. Organization is key. It’s really nice to work out of a clean vehicle. I thought my truck was clean! My dad is a master plumber, been plumbing for over 35 years and his damn truck looks like a landfill.
Love the video! 👍 I can't wait to finally be able to afford my own transit and set it up just like yours! I am an HVAC technician now for a company and we have to use what they give us. Pretty soon hopefully this summer I will be going out on my own and work for myself. I do plumbing as well and no job is too big for me to handle. I also paid for my little brother to go to school to learn the trade so one day we can work together for our selves. After watching all these videos of van setups and seeing people in the business that's more and more motivation! I also work with a military veteran tech, he is my master plumber. Once I show him my van setup making just like yours he will go crazy! Him and I can't stand disorganization! Unfortunately the company I work for now is the complete opposite they don't care about us they just care about the bottom dollar! Sell sell sell, a true HVAC technician is hard to find now! That's why I can't wait to go on my own, take my time troubleshooting problems and offer a repair option vs just right away selling them a brand new unit. I tested this theory out for myself of someone coming in and not knowing the problem just right away said swap it. It was sickening to listen to them due to law suits and legality issues of it, I couldn't record anything. So everyone be careful of who you call to work on your stuff! Don't call big name companies, stick to guys like this who have there own business! Chances are they will be fair and true!
The lawsuit is where you con someone into keeping an 8-year-old unit alive so that you can milk them for maintenance. Nothing wrong with a nice new high-efficiency unit unless you make a living off of maintenance, then those old units and cheap owners are like an ATM.
Very nice setup. As for the battery situation, I just read somewhere that you can use the battery operated coolers which can also heat for winter weather so that things don't freeze over to maintain the batteries at a considerably warmer ambient temp. This is so you don't have to bring in the batteries overnight. I haven't use this system yet but will do it asap.
Sparky here….love the electrician repellent tool!😁👍🏼
A little suggestion for the batteries. I have read of an idea, although I haven't tried it because I don't have a service van. But the suggestion is to use a plug in portable cooler which can also heat, and keep the batteries in there. I hope it helps...
One of the best vans ive ever seen. Grate jib man.
You should build and insulated box around your batteries, then come up with an m18 powered heat blanket of some kind.
Great thorough tour of your van. You should carry and empty Packout crate to put on the top of your stack to put your tool bags in or any loose tools/parts.
Wow. So day to day how do you leave time to stay so clean? Nature gets me around 9pm and I gotta stop so I can sleep. The the phone with customers calling starts around 4:30 am. That’s amazing. Service is the single handed dirtiest job day to day. That’s a clean truck. Love it dude. Maybe also a video on how to work 14-18 hours a day and keep van spotless and totally organized. I am always in awe by plumbers that can stay spotless and organized. I can’t stay organized. And the 4-5 hours I get every couple of Sunday’s is barely enough time to pick up just the trash. Great job. Keep it up.
Thanks! Im local here in MN, just really love the setup. And you are a great guy!
Your van is an indication of quality job workmanship, love your videos.
As a retired PD ESU cop I can tell you that those heavy pack out containers WILL move if you’re unfortunate enough to be involved in an accident. You can add a short piece of wood to span across the opening to keep them stationary if you get hit by someone.
This is an excellent setup. Good video, way better than any video I’ve seen produced by Milwaukee.
I have atleast the same amount of Milwaukee tools but my trailer hasn’t been touched yet. Got to love them. Love the light idea in the back and the dolly mounts are awesome. I’m going to need to get that. Looks awesome
Was going to ask if u did new or service but u answered that. I do alot with steam, condensate and boilers my self being a welder in hydronics field. Thanks for showing it looks like a sweet set up.
Back here watching this video again! Thanks for the referral to Brian Way's Packout Dolly holder clips. Bought (4) pair! Rock on brother!
Well damn, I only started plumbing recently in May of 1992. Just got my Master plumbers license just the other day in November of 1999. And in that miniscule amount of time I can't remember ever seeing a better organized service truck. You sir have won Van set up. Please take your complimentary PAY THIS MAN WHATEVER HE ASKS FOR banner and proudly fly it from that service shop on wheels.
Good day to you sir. May all your Taco' s and B&G' s flow smoothly and quietly.
Best van ever ever seen before
Dream rig specially the packouts
as an electrician I don’t understand why every one thinks we’re messy. But it was funny. And good work on the van. Looks grea
Here in Ontario I bought a 1200 watt electric heater and mounted it in my transit and when I get to site or home I plug it in and then nothing freezes.
Unbelievable job, i am a plumber in Connecticut thanks for some great ideas and details
"NO TOOLS LEFT IN THIS VEHICLE OVERNIGHT"
Nice job. Just got a Promaster and for the first time I have a Clean slate to build from. Got some great ideas from you. You can always tell a professional by how they present themselves and care for their equipment.
As an electrician I’m going to let you in on a secret, it usually not the broom that repels us it’s the plumber holding it.
Thanks again for the ideas.
I just got my first crate today for Christmas. So excited
Nice van tour Eric, we are very similar. Yours is a Packout van mine is a systainer van. Both like organized vans and make them unique in ower own ways. I've modified one of your ideas as you no. Greeting Jasper.
This guy sounds and kinda looks like Kurt Russel. Lol.
All joking aside. Very nice set up
2815Juan he does a bit aye
It is Awesome. Love the Packout. Pricey but best storage system on the market
Now this is how to organise a van! Very nicely done. My vans half as interesting as this...
Thank you!
The ply wood is baltic birch its nice stuff super strong
Please would you do an assembly video for that battery switch 🙏👍
Great job! Thanks for sharing the cool buildout - also a Minnesota guy dealing with the cold. I'll share the build-out on my little van when I get to it early 2020
Can you make a video of how to purge and bleed a boiler system with multiple different zones in a home? One that doesn’t use pumps but Honeywell zone valves? Or something like that? Thanks
Looks like I have to rebuild my set up over holiday. Thanks for tour.
Ha ha, love the sparky repellant.
That was funny. I've never seen them clean up their mess either.
This was outstanding, Im sure I can speak for many of us we envy you! Lol your buddy cam joke all they want about it fact is your doing it the right way. Organization in skilled trades = more billable hours keep it up bro!
Very nice, Eric!
I think that it is impossible to do something like that with Chevy Express vans. They are horribly designed.
i wish someone made a video of how to mount the plywood to the transit wall
absolute work of art my friend...great job. it shows the customer the type of high quality work they will get from you.
Great set-up! I would love some links to the products you showcased. Thank!
Nice set up. Holy pack outs.
well done mad respect for mech/plbg!!
Man your setup is awesome. I would love to have seen a video of the actual build. Im gonna have to copy some of these ideas. I especially like the slot for the table
Now I got a few more pack out ideas. I keep my van mint as well. I am a neat FREAK.
Nicely done! For a plumber that's some good woodwork!!
Love it! My transit is set up similar with Milwaukee boxes!
Vans mint mate. Using Sortimo but always on the look out to maximise van storage 👍
I’d like to see that uni-strut pipe wrench holder
There’s a video on my IG shouting the build
Subbed because I just saw you with Kyle from RR at Milwaukee's 2023 Forge launch! Looking forward to checking out your vids!
Outstanding build my man! Clean organized setup that allows you to get work done, you just gotta love it.
I wish I had the patience to setup my vans like that.
Holy smokes! Amazing install and space utilization. 🤯
Super impressive setup!! Love it! Great job Eric!
Looks good I have a lot of pack out myself
Seems like one good turn and it's a wrap
Nothing has moved yet. It’s all in how it’s built, 10K miles now.
Awesome build. thanks for showing us !
That’s a sexy truck
Da best bus i've ever seen 💪💪💪
WTF? You are going to make me spend so much money! No matter what i do, I now need my truck to look like your. You have an amazing layout. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent setup. Money well spent.
very organized and creative will for sure be taking tips off this video one day when i go on my own
Gathering my ideas. Taking all the best from the best yo make the ultimate best setup. You made my cut.
you need to screw some of those knex to the bottom of your veto to keep it from moving while you drive!
It has been pretty good so far. I'm surprised actually.
Love the set up I’m probably gonna steal it 👍🏻
How did you attach the plywood to the van walls so it nice and sturdy?
I hear that the wood made noises on vans. Do you attached on bottom and floor? If you attached to the back how do you do it?
Make Your Vans Look Great Again 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Hahaha love it. Thanks.
Nice work. Some day i will be able to copy this. wouldn’t change anything.
We can't have nice things like this in the UK. The risk of it getting nicked is too great. This is every British tradesman's fantasy.
Sooooo fresh, soooo clean!!!
Great setup man I hate vans but I would rock the hell out of yours,very impressive
Well organized. I am impressed.
Great setup! You get a hard time because folks are jealous.
Very cool ,Milwaukee 👍🏻 great job on organizing, makes you more efficient excellent video
Looks like heaven🤩
Why is the Boiler Parts Crate on the bottom right in backwards?
Hahaha who knows. Just busy and didn’t notice I guess. Bugged me but I wasn’t going to redo it all 😆
Mechanical Hub That’s reasonable. It’s good to be busy. 👍
Listen thats a great idea! For those who see it as a waste of space / just shows that you know nothing on running a business
