Probably need more than one. An attic is to insulate, not use for
storage. If you have stuff that you'd keep up there, maybe time to
throw it out.

exactly wrong.

Nothing survives well in attic heat, and putting stuff on top of the
insulation crushes it and reduces its insulating value. Besides that,

You're insane. Only a ****ing idiot stores junk directly on top of
insulation.
Install 4x8 plywood sheets where one is going to use



And then those crush the insulation. A well insulated attic will have
more than six inches in it. Besides that, you still get fiberglass
dust in your stuff, a real bad idea.


More insanity. There'll be 2x8's every 16 inches. Put the plywood on
top of them.
As far as FG dust, insulation made in the last hundred years has a
plastic sheet on one side. You really need to quit talking out of



My house was built in '79. It has no plastic on one side of the
insulation, it is fiberglass wads. You, sir, are the one discussing
things with your anal oriface.
