I use a plastic flip-top bin like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00006IARN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_me02DbJYMCNXS
It fits perfectly between the front seats and back seats and is the perfect height if you use a couple pillows (or spare clothes) to pad the top. I’m 6’4” and I can sleep like this in the back of my 2019 CrossTrek.
If you have a LOT of books that will be stacked in boxes, consider 12 gallon folding lid storage bins sold at Costco. It's a different brand (than the Amazon link) and sells for about $7 each. I use about 30 bins to store children's books for schools.
The downsides:
The upside:
I just use one of these types of tubs although my carboys are 18.9L, I believe. Another benefit of a tub of water is that it creates a thermal ballast, so your beer doesn't have any bad temp swings.
Another approach is just to brew styles that work with the temps you have. Saisons are really good for the summer, or you can use HotHead yeast for other ales. Lagers for the winter
I've got something like this:

Easy enough to pick up and go. If you filled one up completely with water, it would be too heavy, but if you put some water and other stuff in each then it's manageable.
I have lots of small shelves built into a closet in my office, and I use plastic shoe-boxes for various add-in cards (mostly video and network) and RAM, sorted by form-factor. Hard drives and fans each go in larger, more sturdy containers. Power supplies, optical drives, and routers/switches/modems go in large totes. Cases just get stacked, as is. There's a small pail that's slowly filling up with screws. Cables get hung on wall hooks.
The coolest bit of furniture I have is my son's old loft bed. It has a built-in desk under it, and with the mattress off, the top is my work space. It fits up to a half dozen towers side-by-side, plus a stack of external drives and a KVM switch which leads down to the screen/key/mouse on the desk.
