Quote from Jeanette on Apr 22nd, 2017, 6:55pm:Quote from Fernando on Apr 22nd, 2017, 4:21pm:But I will hint that there are 2 surviving barrels of wine, which holds about 50 gallons of wine each. Each barrel is 3ft high, 18 inches at top and bottom and bulges out to 2ft (24in) in the middle. They can be sold to restaurants or bars as a whole barrel for around $1000 or more. Or they can be sold at at stand as $1 a glass, $5 carafe and $10 a bottle filled. If 4 bottles makes a gallon, that is 200 bottles or about $2000. But who wants to stand at a table in the market "selling lemonaide at 25 cents a glass?" The wine in the barrels is about 10 year vintage.
Maribelle did not say anything to Moro about the barrels. Therefore Moro would not know to get a larger climate controlled trailer. What would make Moro buy a larger box when she thinks she only needs a smaller one? This is the only answer I can come up with: there is a box that fits all of Moro's needs despite being bigger than what she thinks she needs.
Barrels were hinted here:

Given that, they can be set up vertically to take up less room in a corner of the trailer.
Quote from Jeanette on Apr 22nd, 2017, 6:55pm:Quote from Fernando on Apr 22nd, 2017, 4:21pm:I'm throwing a hint in here - Moro needs to think if she needs shelves or secure drawers (or both) as it is not just Maribelle's things that will be stored in there. Who ever is rescued or wants to join in the Exodus to Charlton may need storage space, if this is the plan Moro is going for. The price of the shelves or drawers should be minimal as some such cargo boxes already have them (like current USP Trucks, Electric company, bread & beverage cargo boxes of today). In short, she needs to think long term and what might happen out there. As is, we are more than 1400 miles from Charlton in the Yellowstone area where there are a lot of military bases where each base can be a resettled town surrounded by large-farm communities and Native American settlements.
That is what Moro is going for: this is for anyone wanting to join the party and needs more storage space. This is the problem I see: unless Jeanette was detailed in her journal, Moro has no idea as to what she will be transporting. While it stands to reason there will be a lot of clothes, there will be other types of items and space needs to available for them as well such as Maribelle's vanity.

If everyone how join brings in their own luggage, then all is needed are shelves in the cargo trailer. And Bungee Cords to hold things down.
For example, Marvin, La La and Li Li have their things in cloth shopping bags because they just bought new supplies. They can be put in the put on a shelf on the cargo trailer, though in actuality, their things will be in a storage area under a seat in Karl’s Camper. The issue with this is it’s an open bag, and somebody walking into the cargo trailer can rummage through it and take valuables from it. But like I said before, they will be getting their own vehicle with a camper after Fight Town. For now they are in Karl’s camper.
