Making use of vertical space.

What happens here

Construct or assemble the heavy-duty shelving unit. Ensure it is securely anchored to the floor or wall to prevent tipping, especially when loaded with full barrels. The shelf should be high enough so that when the barrels are placed on their side, the dispensing spigot is above the vehicle's DEF tank filler neck. This height difference is crucial for gravity feeding.

Goal: Create a stable and elevated platform for the DEF barrels.
