Secure Your Load

Secure Your Load

Secure Your Load

Secure your load in the back of your truck with a scroll truck net. A net allows the air to flow through while holding items in place.

To make the net you attach netting to two plastic pipes. Cap the ends of the pipes. Roll the net up like a scroll and keep it in the back of your truck. It is handy to secure one item or a whole load.

Litter blowing out of truck beds is a problem everywhere. Another way to secure the load is to put your loose items in a trash container and secure the top with a bungee cord. The lid will not blow off and the empty container will not blow out if the lid is secured with the bungee cord.

A bungee cord across the lid of your trash container is also a good way to keep animals from getting into your trash.

We do not have anything in the pipes to weight it down and it works just fine for our needs. This net has been in the back of our truck for probably 5 years now and has show no sign of deterioration. We use it all the time.

Do you fill the pipe with something to weigh the pipes down?
