Abstract
A storage apparatus for a small vehicle is disclosed. This apparatus is constructed with modular panels which can be assembled together by hand without any tools. The modular panels are of substantially flat construction which can be stacked and stored in a relatively small space when the apparatus is disassembled and not in use. The apparatus includes tanks of water to provide additional weight to the apparatus to inhibit easily moving the apparatus with its stored vehicle. These tanks of water may be filled prior to the vehicle being loaded into the apparatus, or may be filled after the vehicle is in place. The tanks are removable from the apparatus with the vehicle in place, allowing easy movement of the apparatus by simply removing the tanks, without removing the vehicle.
