What do you guys keep in your trunk?

I was putting groceries in the trunk yesterday and got absolutely fed up with the amount of car cleaning stuff in it. I've got a box that had VM, Blitz, Zymol, #7, P21S, Zaino, Collinite, MF towels, foam applicators, Window cleaner, QD etc, interior cleaner, interior dressing, carpet shampoo etc.



I'm at the point that I'm taking all this stuff out of the trunk and only want to carry the bare minimum needed in case the car needs a quick cleaning/detail.



What should I carry that will help maintain the car without taking up a lot of trunk space and is there any sort of (in car) organizer to carry this stuff?



I'm thinking just a QD and couple of MF towels, but can the QD be used inside the car (windows, trim etc)?



Sorry its so long.
 
I usually keep some MF towels in Ziplock bags and a bottle of QD in my car for bird bombs. Usually all I need unless I am going to be washing the car or something.

Depending if you want to do this to your car, they make a behind the seat truck organizer. I bought 1 at walmart (for my old car), got some selftap screws and washers and mounted it to the backseat.



Doesn't hold much but it keeps stuff from sliding around and out of the way.
 
I carry an emergency kit in my trunk. I have two kids 4 and 7 that I carry around in the car on a daily basis. I have the necessities to clean up after the inevitable messes.



2 terry cotton towels for soaking up soda or juice spills.



5 microfiber towels for removing fingerprints from the paint and glass inside and out.



Glass cleaner, window tint safe.



1Z cockpit premium - kind of a quick detailer for the interior.



Meguiars Quik Detailer - removing fingerprints, bird droppings and the like from the exterior



Meguiars Quik Wax - adding extra protection when needed



Meguiars Leather wipes - cleaning the seats.



Meguiars All Purpose Cleaner wipes - cleaning the interior.



Meguiars Bug and Tar wipes - bugs



Meguiars Heavy Duty Upholstery cleaner - cleaning the carpet after the spills.
 
In my car at all times I have some mini bottles of qd, water, window cleaner, 303 and apc tucked nicely away in my rear arm rest; not to mention my duster, kozak cloth, mfs and glass mf. In my trunk I MUST always have my car cover. I'll turn around and go home from on the way to a trip if I ever failed to have it with me :)
