    For me I just store in it in a pizza back in the bed of the truck.

    My step stool gets folded down and stored right inside the door so that it is right there when I want to go in.

    States the T@Bpole has camped, so far ;)

    Inside the propane tub. No pizza bag and I removed the sewer hose holder because it was useless. Lots of room now. Also put a short piece of pool noodle over the threaded part of the BAL to keep it clean

    @Tabster, you'll need to write a book called "1001 Uses for a Pool Noodle" :lol:  They are handy foamy things!

    Lol dang it, I've made 3 trips to various stores, and I didn't get a pool noodle. 

    Thanks

    Go to a hardware store and get pipe insulation. Its usually cheaper and not as fat.

    @jkjenn, agree, AND the other upside to pipe insulation is it's already split!  ;)

    You can also get it with adhesive on the inside of the split. :)

    we just got our BAL leveller for our T@G MAX XL, rather than ordering the pizza bag, we were in Costco ( Ontario, Canada) the other day and they had a very large cooler bag which fits it, just kept the threaded part separate and the wrench fits in the outside pocket, like the pool noodle/ pipe insulation idea for the threaded part, cooler bag was under $!0.00!

    Not even near Ontario, Canada, but would love to see a photo. Maybe my Costco (or Costco on-line) would have them if I knew what I was looking for.  Thanks...

    I don't own a pizza bag for it, I keep the plastic sleeve it came in & we've found that it easily fits under the rear bench seat in the truck. 

    Truck has an in-bed lock box; in there we have a waterproof storage container for tools etc, our fold-up step fits inside nicely. :peace:

    Mine just rides in the back of the truck. Last to be loaded, first to be unloaded. Use the BAL every time even if I don't need it for leveling, also doubles as a chock. My step just rides inside the door on the floor upside down. I don't even fold up the legs.

    We use the heavy duty gray bag we got for our Pahaque T@B cover since the cover is either in use or wadded up while we're camping.
