ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for securing material. In particular, the invention is basically an S-shaped device comprised of three substantially planar members and two substantially U-shaped connections used in conjunction with a toolbox mounted in a pickup truck. The exact configuration of the device can be modified to fit different types of toolboxes or other vertical supports, for example, inserting an L-shaped section for form fitting toolboxes. The device provides a tie point for securing cargo with ropes or similar restraining material. The device itself is secured by closing the lid of the toolbox and is essentially reversible in application due to its S-shape. Furthermore, the device can be used without restraining material to secure cargo with handles or loops. In this manner, the cargo, such as grocery bags, are secured and transported by looping the cargo handle over the tie point.
