In van organization, small upgrades can have a big impact—and the Weather Guard Bucket Holder Overview proves it. Built with contractors, tradespeople, and service pros in mind, this simple addition keeps your 5-gallon buckets secure, upright, and easy to reach, even on the go. In this overview, we’ll highlight why this seemingly modest accessory is a smart, space-saving investment for any upfit.

At Upfit Supply, we’re constantly testing and reviewing products that make your van more functional. The Weather Guard Bucket Holder (Model 9885-7-01) stands out because it delivers durability, convenience, and safety—without requiring a complicated install or layout shift.

Why Choose the Weather Guard Bucket Holder?

Let’s face it: buckets slide, tip, and spill far too easily in a work van. That’s where this bucket storage solution shines. It’s designed to:

– Secure a 5-gallon bucket during transport

– Prevent spills and messes from liquids or materials

– Keep your workspace organized and tools easily accessible

Even better, it’s manufactured by Weather Guard—a trusted name in van equipment built for real job site demands.

Key Features of the Weather Guard Bucket Holder

We’ve used and installed plenty of cargo van organizers, and this one hits the mark. Here’s what makes it stand out:

– Steel construction with a durable white powder-coated finish

– Form-fitted cradle that holds the bucket in place without shifting

– Integrated strap that wraps around the top to lock it down

– Low-profile design fits neatly against shelving or van walls

– Pre-drilled mounting holes for fast, secure installation

These features combine to create a tool that’s not just rugged but also built for daily use.

Installation Process: Fast and Simple

One of the best parts of the Weather Guard Bucket Holder is how quickly it can be added to your setup. Whether you’re just starting your van build or adding to a fully built system, this holder fits right in.

Installation in Four Quick Steps:

1. Identify the mounting location on your floor or shelving.

2. Mark and drill pilot holes using the pre-drilled base as a guide.

3. Secure with appropriate fasteners (not included).

4. Place the bucket and secure the strap.

It’s a straightforward process that takes less than 10 minutes.

Perfect for Multiple Industries

This product isn’t limited to any one trade. It’s versatile enough to be useful across a wide range of industries:

– Plumbers carrying compounds, tools, or waste buckets

– Electricians storing cable scraps or hardware

– Painters hauling paint or solvent-filled buckets

– Cleaning crews with sanitation solutions

– General contractors using buckets for tools or debris

If you use 5-gallon buckets in your daily work, this Weather Guard Bucket Holder will save you time and reduce messes.

Space-Saving Design Built for Vans

A big part of why we love this product is its space efficiency. We all know how important every square inch is inside a van. This holder is designed to mount flat against shelving, van walls, or bulkheads, letting you maximize vertical space.

Plus, when the bucket’s not in use, it’s easy to pop it out, and the holder stays out of the way. No clunky cages or frames sticking out into your aisle space.

Compatible with Other Weather Guard Systems

Another win for this holder is how seamlessly it works with Weather Guard shelving units and accessories. Whether you’re using an existing shelf setup or installing a new one, this holder can bolt directly to shelving panels or standalone.

And because it’s made by Weather Guard, you can expect the same fit-and-finish consistency you’d find across their storage racks, partitions, and floor mats.

Built to Last on the Job Site

When we say this bucket holder is tough, we mean it. Built with heavy-duty steel and coated for corrosion resistance, it’s ready for wet buckets, chemical exposure, and general wear-and-tear.

– Powder-coat protects against rust

– Steel frame resists dents and deformation

– Strap holds up under repeated use

You can install it and forget about it—it just does its job.
