Vacuum bag large enough to store triple seats

[blobbi]

I have just taken ownership of a T5.1 shuttle, very excited!
We want to take the rear seats out and store them in the garage.
The garage is a bit damp
Does anyone have any recommendations on storage bags that might fit a triple seat?
Thanks in advance
Rob

Cant help with the storage bag question, but we have got a LWB Shuttle. We did take the rear seats out for a while but found that folding the seat back flat down and then unclipping the rear to fold/rotate the whole seat forwards gives a massive amount of extra load space but allows us to leave seats in place. This now means we can get two adult bikes in the back without having to take anything off.

Would the seats fit into a very large garden refuse sack? If they do then just stick a vacuum cleaner on the end and tape up after it has collapsed. If not then just rap up as much as you can with liners from each end and physically remove any excess ballooning and tape off any gaps. If they are off for an extended period in the garage, then look out for mice. They can do lots of damage. So sealing of is still important and trying to lift them a little off the floor may help.

Know anyone buying a new king size mattress - they usually come bagged?

I agree - mice are a big risk. If possible, store the seats indoors for a bit to ensure they are as moisture free as possible before wrapping them. I'd even be tempted to pop a cheap "moisture absorber" block (for the life of me I can't think of what they're called) in the bag too.

Is it silica or silicone crystals? The can also be heated in a microwave oven to drive out any absorbed damp and then reused.

That's the one!

We have a desiccator dehumidifier running in our caravan...............dry as a bone. They're so good

Depending on how often you want to use the seats, if not often you could stuff the seat gaps with bags of silica gel, wrap with HD industrial cling film and suspend off the floor from beams etc to reduce the risk from rodents.

Whoever makes this must have a vacuum bag big enough................
