Shelves in basement of my 3400RE BH

I'm doing some mods. to my basement area and wanted to get some ideas on shelving...not anything heavy, wanted to get a few items that get in the way when on the floor and I don't want to go to my bins each time. I've already been using plastic bins. I've looked at some wire shelving and it might work...I'm concerned about attaching (with screws) anything to the interior walls..Looks like it's only 1/4" Plywood...
Appreciate any ideas.

My interior walls are 3/8" plywood. If you drill pilot holes for the shelving screws they should hold. For added strength, you can glue some strips of 3/4" ply or 1x lumber to the backside and give a larger screw something to bite into.

I use wire mesh shelves and they are great. Also adjustable in height. If your back wall is thin, use thru bolts and area washers to secure the mounting beams. I've had no problems and I used this method on two different rigs. Would send photos but my rig is wrapped up for winter. Good luck.
