Abstract

An apparatus implemented as an integrated storage and transport system is described. The apparatus can be made of a high tensile strength material that is resistant to tearing and to inclement weather. Incorporated into the apparatus is a plurality of reinforced straps where each strap contains a core of multiple strand high tensile cord. The number of reinforced straps is generally based on a square foot size of the apparatus. Also combined, in some variations, is the strategic placement of box stitching and vertical straps for extra support.
