Keeping tools and materials organized is crucial for any trade professional on the move. That’s why unboxing a Holman small parts bin kit is such an exciting step toward optimizing your van setup. At Upfit Supply, we help our customers build out reliable, functional, and work-ready vans—and this parts bin kit is a simple yet effective addition to that mission.

In this blog, we’re diving into what makes this kit valuable, how it’s built, and what you can expect from the unboxing experience. Whether you’re a plumber, electrician, HVAC tech, or general contractor, this compact solution can help you stay organized and efficient on the job.

Unboxing a Holman Small Parts Bin Kit: What’s Inside?

When we opened the box, the first thing we noticed was how clean and minimal the packaging was. Holman (formerly Cargo Master) has done a great job of keeping the packaging protective and organized without unnecessary filler. Despite the occasional Cargo Master branding on the box or paperwork, rest assured: Holman and Cargo Master are the same company—just a name change, same trusted products.

Here’s what you’ll find inside the kit:

  • Six heavy-duty plastic bins
  • Powder-coated steel tray with pre-mounted slides
  • Installation hardware
  • Warranty card (3-year warranty when purchased from an authorized dealer)
  • Parts list with quality control stamp

From the get-go, it’s easy to see Holman’s commitment to quality. The parts list is clear and stamped for quality control, so you know everything was checked before shipping. This is especially important in the automotive and upfitting space, where missing hardware is far too common.

Heavy-Duty Bins for Everyday Use

As we continued unboxing the Holman small parts bin kit, we pulled out the standout feature—six bright yellow plastic bins that nest securely into the tray.

Each bin is:

  • Thick and durable, with 4mm plastic walls
  • Designed with slots for labeling—both inside the bin and on the front lip
  • Equipped with removable dividers for flexible storage
  • Molded with rounded edges for comfort and grip

These bins are built from polypropylene, a tough plastic material that holds up well in fluctuating van temperatures and rough worksite conditions. You can easily store fasteners, connectors, fittings, or small tools in a way that’s both visible and secure.

Tray System Keeps Bins Locked In Place

The bins rest inside a steel tray with individual slides, preventing them from bouncing out or shifting during transit. This is a huge advantage, especially when driving across job sites or rough terrain.

  • Lip on the tray prevents the bins from sliding out
  • Once mounted to a shelf, bins are sandwiched between shelf levels, keeping them extra secure
  • Powder-coated gray finish matches all other Holman shelving components

So whether you’re turning corners or driving over bumps, these bins stay put and keep your small parts contained.

Smart Design for Labeling & Access

Each bin includes a front slot for inserting labels—perfect for creating a system that’s easy to manage at a glance.

You can label bins by:

  • Part number
  • Material type
  • Project or client name
  • Inventory date

Additionally, the bins are easy to remove and reinsert, making it convenient to restock or reorganize as needed. This kit isn’t just about storage—it’s about building a workflow that makes your day-to-day operations smoother.

Installing the Holman Small Parts Bin Kit

Installing this kit couldn’t be easier. Holman shelving units come with pre-drilled holes, so no guesswork is involved.

Installation steps:

  1. Line up the tray with the underside of a Holman shelf
  2. Use the two included button-head bolts and nuts to secure the tray
  3. Slide the bins into place and you’re ready to go

If your shelving unit doesn’t have pre-drilled holes where you want the tray, you can drill your own. Holman’s system is modular by design, giving you total freedom to customize your layout.

Why Add This Kit to Your Van?

There are plenty of storage solutions out there, but few are as efficient, compact, and durable as the Holman small parts bin kit. Here’s why it’s worth considering:

  • Reduces clutter and increases usable shelf space
  • Keeps small parts visible and labeled
  • Helps prevent spillage and loss of inventory
  • Enhances professional appearance inside the van
  • Easy to install, remove, or relocate within your shelving system

Because it matches Holman shelving, bulkheads, and other accessories, the visual consistency also adds a level of polish to your upfit.

Holman Quality You Can Count On

Every time we open a Holman product, we’re reminded of their dedication to quality and durability. From the powder-coated steel tray to the precision-molded plastic bins, everything is with the user in mind.

Additionally, Holman includes a 3-year warranty with their products—just make sure you purchase from an authorized reseller like Upfit Supply. That way, you’re fully covered if any issues arise down the road.
