Does anyone have any inventive suggestions of how to secure 4 bikes inside a container with no tie down points and still leave room for me furniture and boxes ?

Current option seems to be put all 4 bikes side by side, seperated with mattresses then tie the whole lot together making one big package so to speak. ( this worries me a bit )

Have looked into crating the bikes but cost is prohibitive on 4 bikes and it would take up much more room than I have available in a 20ft container.

The floor is flat and very solid, I have sean some with tie downs, & most are fairly watertight.

If there arn't any tie down points make your own put some ply on the floor & fix points to it.

Or go to a bike dealer & scrounge his used crates my help.
