**This materials list is for drawers that I made for my standard 6’ 6” bed. You might need to alter the materials if you are building for a different sized truck bed or SUV. Total cost for me was around $400.
** I recommend going to the store to pick these items up so you can sort the lumber and pick the best pieces, but here are some links anyways if you want to order online and have delivered or ready for pick up at the store.
