Will you need totes with handles built in to make them easier to carry. The stick framed roof process allows more space underneath the roof either for an elegant look with a cathedral style ceiling or for storage space in an attic. When you built your roof do you know then if it was stick built or is it built with trusses. Other roof shapes particularly those with dormers or on houses with cathedral ceilings attic rooms or attic storage areas are stick built.

Before embarking on extensive storage building in your attic make certain that the space is both safe and sound. They are easily changed and manipulated later if needed by either changing up the space removing an attic floor to make a more open room or other modeling plans.

Height is an important limiter of your available storage space. Gable and hip roofs may be built primarily of trusses. In most attics the roof angles upwards from the sides.
