Rolling Storage Cabinets  

For those that enjoy hobbies, keeping all the items that are necessary to fully enjoy the activity together can become as much of a challenge as the hobby itself. Thankfully, there are any number of rolling storage cabinets that are designed to store all of your smaller items in drawers with larger open shelves to keep everything neatly organized.

If you are not real big on bright colors, look to Sterilite. Most of the products they offer are all in white or clear plastic with an impressive array of drawers and in a wide variety of sizes to suit any situation. They also have designed most of their sets to be interlocked so expansion can be a snap and provide even more alternatives for storage. If you need more small drawers or larger ones, the layout will be entirely in your hands. This can be great for those that enjoy hobbies like scrap-booking, sewing or model building. Plenty of drawers to keep all the smaller items like the bottles of paints and brushes, spools of thread, needles and scissors neatly filed.

With the availability of relatively inexpensive computers and printers, finding a convenient file cabinet can be that last piece you need to keep all of your office supplies and paperwork organized. D-Scan is a South Boston, Virginia company that distributes Danish-made furniture. They have 3 models of rolling file storage cabinets that would make very nice additions, depending on the amount of space you have available. Some common features for each unit includes ball-bearing drawer guides with stops, wall-mount tethers to prevent tipping, and have scratch and chip resistant finishes in coffee or maple colors. The 'Tall' model measures 40.5 x 16.5 x 16.5 " and has a 6" deep pencil drawer, a large file drawer with a big open surface, and a 3 compartment shelf. The 'Low' design has the two drawers and an open shelf and measures in at 30 x 16.5 x 16.5." The 'Wide' unit is 26 x 27 X 16.5" and has a single file drawer with 5 open shelves. To complete an office set-up, they have a matching desk and bookcase available.

If there are those who like to fish in your home, keeping the rods, reels and tackle organized may be a matter of leaning them in a corner of a closet. Now, Organized Fishing has a better idea. They offer four clever rolling solutions. One is the "Rolling Wood Cabinet" with wire racks that will hold a total of 14 utility boxes and 12 rod and reels. The "Heavy Duty Rolling Rack" will hold up to 16 heavy rods and also is made of long-lasting hardwood. If you would like to have the convenience of using a metal storage system instead of wood, their Tackle Trolley with a Rolling Wire Rack will hold 12 rods and reels and has three adjustable shelves able to hold 50 pounds each. The "Heavy Duty Tackle Trolley" is also metal and will hold up to 18 combos with the three adjustable shelves. These would sure be nice to keep all the lines from tangling and the rods all tied together leaning in a corner. Having your tackle and gear able to be laid out for easy access and drying is another huge benefit.

These rolling storage cabinets are especially beneficial because of being on coasters. They can be rolled up to your work area and keep everything close at hand while working. Also note that many of these will provide a surface top for an additional working area if so desired. When you are done, they can be pushed back into the corner where they will be out of the traffic areas with no clutter left out on a table or desk.
