Abstract: An attic storage system comprising a series of elongated rails, each including an array of rollers mounted in and along the length of each rail at spaced apart locations. Individual storage containers, provided with bottom support means adapted to ride along the length of the rails are carried by the rails. The rails of the present invention are adapted to be mounted atop the upper surface of two or more of the ceiling joists of the attic. Thus, the rails may be mounted parallel to, angular to, or perpendicular to, the length dimension of the ceiling joints, thereby providing for enhanced variability in the positioning of the operative elements of the system within an attic, hence enhanced accessibility to any given one or more of the storage containers.
