George Blitch 0:15

Casey, welcome to the podcast. How you doing today, man? I'm great, man. Thanks for having me, George. Appreciate it. Oh, absolutely. I'm very excited to talk about decked or the drawer system, cargo glide, uh toolbox, deco case, all the different amazing things you guys are putting out. But, you know, with a lot of my guests, I'd like to give a little bit of background and you've been someone who's worked in the outdoor space for quite a long time. Uh, kind of walk me into like your story, man. Uh, you know, a little bit about where you grew up, how you got involved in working the outdoors, and then how that uh transitioned into you being over there at deck now. Sure, sure. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 0:47

So I I live in uh Haley, Idaho. I've lived here my whole life. Um uh I started working for first line performance hunting in 2013. That was my first job right out of college. Pretty excited about it. Um, dream job hunting's always been a huge passion of mine, so it was it was pretty awesome to to jump on board the company. I I truly loved um uh jumping forward a little bit. I was there for 10 years. Um even within the mediator acquisition, I was there and uh uh fantastic gig, loved it and made a lot of great connections. Um and was even better because it was a local local company which where I live, so uh kind of best of both worlds there. Um yeah, I was there for again 10 years and then uh I was looking for a switch and uh jumped onto the deck in uh 2024. Um it was uh even better role than I could have imagined, but it was again time for a change there. And uh yeah, it was uh super eager to do something different and still be in the valley and be within a sweet company and sweet role that uh uh doing something that I'm passionate about. Uh and deck kind of fit that mold super well, so I jumped with the opportunity.

What DECKED Is Built For

George Blitch 2:00

That's great, man. Well, you know, those other companies you mentioned too have been big fans of, and and I know that uh you got some great folks you've you've been a part of. And it seems like the deck community is so amazing. Um, I think, you know, before we kind of jump into it, I'd love to kind of you know go back to a little bit of the basics. I mean, this started in 2014 as a sketch on a napkin, you know, sit in a bar, which is where all the good ideas come from, apparently, you know, and uh I'd love to talk about kind of maybe the the very beginning stages thereof, and I mean, obviously a lot of growth in the last 12 years, but you know, talk to us a little bit about the idea of what decked is on principle, and uh we'll kind of jump in from there.

From Barn Startup To Scale

CargoGlide And Case System Breakdown

SPEAKER_01 2:36

Yes, on principle. I mean, decked is uh truck bed storage, truck bed organization, um, stuff, equipment to organize the cast of your life. I mean, trucks are part of everybody's everyday life. Um, I believe the the last stat that I read is that one in four Americans drive a truck, so or one in four vehicles in America uh are trucks. So there's a lot of opportunity. It's a huge market to expand into. Um, and having a truck be part of everyday life from you know, play to your professional life, um, which made sense style for something that was super tough and super rugged. Um through Dex came in, uh was basically built off the idea. Uh, you've all we've all seen the plywood drawer systems that people build and put in the back of their trucks and just kind of built off of that idea. Um, so in 2012, Jake Peters, who's the founder of the company, had this idea to create a durable truck bed storage system. And uh that's what ended up happening. So after a couple years of of stewing on the process and and diving a little further, uh in 2014, the first drawer system was launched. It's made out of HDPE, so it's a super tough, super durable material uh that can handle a lot of weight and a lot of abuse. And then that's that's what it came down to. Um the expansion's been nuts really have it from 2012 to 2014 from the concept of the actual intro of the product. Um it started with just full-size drawer systems um out of a super small, super small barn in in Ohio uh that was really built on a wholesale platform, shipping to dealers and distributors. Um, and then it launched uh 2015 is when we hit direct to consumer. Um started selling directly on deck.com. Um we expanded into a larger facility um in 2018 uh in Defiance, Ohio, which was 50,000 square feet. Uh and that's that facility has since grown. There's a huge molding facility. It's it's actually one of the the only molding facilities in the US where a lot of that manufacturing comes out of. Uh so it's it's a pretty pretty extensive, extensive facility. Um, and it's grown a ton. So it's grown along with our footprint and kind of the customers that we offer to and our sales in general. So starting out from a barn to gone to 50,000 square feet, uh what it is today, it's over 350,000 square feet. And that's where everything is manufactured and shipped from, is that at Defiance, Ohio. Everything from our drawer systems to our cargo glides and toolboxes, all the different accessories that we offer. Um it's a it's a pretty unbelievable, um unbelievable facility. In 2022, we had car we acquired cargo glides. Uh your sliding drawer trays uh for the uh for your bed, for your truck bed. So uh not the drawer system itself, but an actual large tray that can you can pull out so you have to crawl in the back of your truck, which is which is super awesome. I know you've got a full-size carbon that fits on your drawer system, so you've got the best of both worlds there, which is awesome. Uh saving your back, saving you from having to crawl in and out. Uh it's been received super well. It's a super popular product. Um yeah, and we've we've updated all our products since. So uh obviously we have the card glider of our drawer systems, uh, from full size and mid-size. We've actually we have a couple different card glides. We have a full size and we have a CG 600, which is the half to half of your bed width. So if you don't if you don't want that giant full-size uh card glide, you can have a CG600, which is half your bed width, so you still have half your bed space if you don't need to need to get all the way in the back, or you have equipment or tools or whatever that uh you know can fit on a smaller platform, you can still pull it in and out. Um pretty fantastic. And uh lots of accessories, lots of cases, lots of just truck death storage designed to be moved from your garage to your truck and um on the go, which is uh super wonderful product.

George Blitch 6:24

Well, indeed. And you know, I can talk about my own experience here of having the drawer system. So I got you know two equal size drawers now, and then there is a lot of payload capacity on top. And so I used that for a little bit before I got the cargo glide system, and then now the cargo glide system, the full one that I have, sits on top of the drawer system, um, interplays and ties in there. You still got locking rings, the D-rings, and everything on there, so you can secure your cargo really well. But um, that was something that, you know, for those who who are interested in this, you can have that cargo glide tray on its own, or you can pair it with your drawer system. And man, it's it's just it's changed the game. I mean, I'm I'm no spring chicken, but I I I still got some, you know, shape and mobility there. But I I'm tired of jumping back in the back of the truck and doing stuff. And now uh there's no need for that. And I love the idea of the way that the deco cases um basically fit into the uh drawer systems to where the the wet mechanism, and and for those who are listening, I think you should go over to the website and check it out so you can kind of visually see what it's talking about. But there's a handle system to where you can open it up so the the case can stay in the drawer system and you can be able to open it up, or you can be able to move a handle and easily pull it out. It's a really well thought out design to where you can keep everything really well organized. And within those cases, there's ways for you to be able to kind of configure stuff. There's dividers. I mean, there's and I mean there's rifle case, bow case kind of things that you can put together that fit inside the drawer systems, which come uh you can have locks in there too. So you're you're securing everything, organizing it, unlike any other system that's out there. And that's one of the things that I really feel like you guys have thought this out in such a way that um it's it's it's all the solutions uh are there for any problem you could ever think about as far as uh cargoes and accessories and taking things around. It's just it's incredible, man. I I don't know how I got along with the system uh without having a system like this before. And I'll never have a truck that doesn't have a deck system in it from here on out.

SPEAKER_01 8:32

I mean, you took the words right out of my mouth. It's uh it's one of those things from uh when you're first considering the product, you're not sure if if you want to go for it because you're you're nervous about the space it'll take up, but the efficiency that it offers is is remarkable. It's uh it's one of those things that once you get one, you're like, how did I ever go so long without this? And as you express, you know, once you have one, you won't ever have a truck without another drawer system again. It's it's it's it's that magnificent.

Weatherproof Security For Real Use

George Blitch 9:00

And I I love that the cargo glide, it there's the the thing about this too is if you imagine this long tray, it has multiple settings. I think it's like either four or five different along the way that you can pull it back and it can set in place. And just being able to get on either side of the drawer system, uh you, you know, when some people think of this, they might think, oh, it's cumbersome. It's not at all. That in fact, the the ingenuity behind its design, I think, allows you to make your the the versatility of your storage and your truck, whether you because I have a cab on the back of my truck, and so there are some height limitations on like maybe on my coolers, but I measured them all out, you know. Uh most of the ones you have are going to fit unless you have some huge, gigantic one. Uh, you know, there this is a weatherproof system that I think it is important for people because I got the cab, so everything's kind of covered, right? But for those who don't have that cab, this is not going to be it's going to be a system that protects your gear in that weatherproof capacity, which I think is an important element to talk about.

SPEAKER_01 10:02

100%, man. And I mean, yeah, I appreciate you are super well versed, George, and you're hitting all these major punches, fantastic. But yeah, as you said, super weatherproof. Um, so I also run a cab on uh uh camper, uh uh topper on my truck. I live in the snow, so it's pretty important for me. But for those who who don't want a camper, don't have a camper, the truck, the actual drawer system itself is very weatherproof. So it's gonna handle any snow, any rain, any sleet, any any precipitation in general. You're running through the car wash, don't have to worry about any water getting into it. Um, it's you know, as they say, it's on a it's not technically bulletproof, but it's as close to bulletproof as you can get. So um, yeah, you don't have to worry about any damage to any of your gear inside from from moisture getting in. Um it's uh it's designed to to meet all the demands of um anybody from your everyday outdoorsmen to your to your fleet workers to uh to your off-randers, to your overlanders. It's uh it's it's designed to be efficient and you know keep your gear organized and well protected and secure.

The New Crossbed Toolbox

George Blitch 11:05

Well, and it does all that and more. And I I think another thing too that you know, as far as we got a lot of folks that are in the hunting outdoor industry here, you can be able to fit in. I I had two rifles in just one of the drawer systems alone. And then you guys also have uh some foam that you can be able to put in there. I mean, you can customize everything to whatever it is you need, but you can be able to put in this this puzzle foam and you'd be able to put your rifles in there. I was able to put them in with cases. I use some FHF gear cases and they just slid right on in, come right on out. Uh, everything is super secure there. Obviously, you can lock it if you're you need to. Um, in in my case, like I said, I got a camper, so I kind of have a little bit of uh the ability to lock that up too. But even if you're not and you're you know going into the gas station on your way to your your hunting trip, your fishing trip, all your gear is going to be locked up and and safe. And I think that's a a key element there too. Um, one thing that I don't have uh experience with, but uh, you know, the the toolbox launch that you guys did this year, uh it looks like there's some amazing uh you know feedback from everything. Again, it's another weatherproof and secure uh feature. But man, you guys have uh just it's a next level organization on that too. Why don't you tell me a little bit about that, how that's been received so far uh on the market?

SPEAKER_01 12:17

Yeah, no problem. So you know, you see a lot of them out of the your your classic cross-cap toolbox um really trying to accommodate to a lot of folks who who uh haul gooseneck trailers where they can't actually use a door system in their truck, uh, but they still want that storage. So that's that's your cross cap toolbox. So it's made of our same super durable, uh, super tough HDPE. Um we've added oversized buttons, oversized latches, so you don't have to finagle like a small button to open it. I mean, you can you can have your arms full you can go in and you slap the the actual release with your elbow and have it open up. Um it's pretty darn cool. It's pretty efficient. But yeah, the cross cap toolbox is is uh designed for those folks who don't want the full drawer system or or who are who can't actually use them based on what they're what they're doing. Um it's a it's uh same same idea. Super, super weatherproof, super durable. It's gonna protect all your gear, all your equipment, but at the same time you got access uh super easily, uh, especially when you're you're carrying a bunch of tools or a bunch of gear back to your truck and you don't want to put everything down, you can still open it and access it without uh without having to drop what's in your hands, which is which is super awesome. We haven't really seen anything like that on the market previously. So going to add a feature that's uh gonna be super useful and new and and different, uh, and it's been received super well.

George Blitch 13:38

That's awesome. Well, you know, one thing that I have to add to to our discussion here is whenever you're going to install any of these, y'all have some of the best, most entertaining install videos that are imaginable. Man, I mean there is a humor element to this, and just it that is off the charts. Whoever has put those together, as far as I mean, there's marketing wizardry there. I I love it. It's it's so much fun. Um, for those who who haven't, you know, installed something yet. When you do, and after you you purchase it, you'll see. Uh there's there's a lot of it's just man, I just the overall your the company, just there's such a human element and such it seems like everyone's having fun. Everyone's really proud to have everything made here in the US. And it seems like just a great community to be a part of. And when you get your system, you're joining that community in such a great way. Uh, I I really want to, you know, just put my hats off to that because I there's some there's an element of that that I feel like is missing from uh some companies out there, but I really do feel like you're you're in a community when you when you sign up and and you get whatever deck product it is you get. 100%, man.

SPEAKER_01 14:51

And it's it's uh it's kind of one of those things too where it's like we like we like our content and our instructions, uh, everything we that we bring out to the general general public, consumer facing. Um we like to be relatable. We don't take ourselves too seriously, but uh, you know, we want it to be friendly and you know relatable. And that's the idea of what we're gone with when we're creating our install videos or creating fun content. Uh people seem to really respond to that well. And uh it's it's fun, it's fun to watch how people react and the feedback that we get, the response we get from folks too. Um, you know, again, we're not taking ourselves too seriously, but we're also trying to uh make sure that we're hitting everything that needs to be hit on, hit upon and uh bring a little humor to uh humor to what we do is is is wonderful. I mean, I've said it a hundred times, but um, I think laughter and comedy is like maybe the the best medicine out there. A good, deep, genuine laugh and like is is maybe the best thing ever. And when you can express that upon what you're doing in a professional yet, you know, humorous way, um it goes over super well and uh people peep brings people back and makes people feel like they can relate to the brand and be part of a bigger picture, which is which is huge. And uh again, we've seen a lot of great responses from that. And uh so we're still pointing ourselves in that same direction.

Customer Service And Fast Support

George Blitch 16:13

No, it it it it comes across, man. And it that's something that I uh it like I said, that that is an element that I really felt was uh was just it was fun to be able to kind of see how much care and love that uh is put into the to these products and also the customer service, which is kind of second to none, man. Um, I had one little screw that I probably misplaced uh whenever I was unpacking everything. And so I was trying to get in the you have a ruler system too that also um sits on the back of the drawer system, or kind of rather on the top, that allows you to kind of you know measure out things if you need, and there's there's all sorts of different uh measurements of things on there. And I was missing something. Man, I called up and just the most gracious people, everything was like back to me within a day and a half. I think I was like right in my hands. The shipping was crazy fast too. Uh, everything's dialed down to science, and it just it there's something about that that in a day and age where I think everybody expects, you know, something the next day, the the Amazon world of things. Um, but you kind of miss a human element. There is the best of both worlds with decked with the community, uh, you know, kind of response there too, sending in a question. You're gonna get something answered. You got a real human that's going to be there asking uh, you know, what they can do to help, you know, get you set up. And you guys have been so gracious. Uh, you know, other friends of mine have ordered since they've they've seen my system and being able to call up and ask questions or or send emails or go through socials. And I think that's uh another element, too, that is very important, man, is how quickly you can be able to get the care you need to find out what system is going to be right for you. And I highly encourage anybody who's listening, if you're thinking about getting a deck system, reach out, talk about you know the pluses and minuses. Go and check out what might be right for you on on the website. And there's tons of videos that can kind of show you all the unique features that you guys have. So uh yeah, again, hats off to that. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 18:03

I mean, the customers, our customers are are vitally important to us, right? So we'd be nothing without our customers if if we didn't have people to to people if we didn't have people who used our products, we'd be nowhere, right? So we're we're very, very much a customer first company, and uh we want to make sure that we're standing behind our product and take care of the people who are using our products. So uh you have to be customer first, and that's very much what we focus on. And as I expressed, we'd be nothing without our customers, so they are vitally important to us, and uh we want to make sure that we're doing right by them. And you know, we have a wonderful CX team, and uh, you know, they're very knowledgeable, they want to make sure that they're taking care of everybody they're dealing with, whether that's uh you know, just call them to to talk shop or if they have a story to relay or general questions or whatever, like choose to call. Uh they will take the time and chat with you and and really make sure that they're taking care of you. And uh uh the team is is is wonderful. So make a phone call. It's it's they're a wonderful group of group of people and uh they will get you dialed in correctly um as you as you express, like they got you dialed in, no problem. And and that's exactly uh what we came for with every phone call and every person we talked to.

First Responders And Time Critical Builds

George Blitch 19:19

No, I mean it it it comes across. And you know, for those that also going to check out the website, there's there's different pictures of builds there, so you can kind of see the different configurations. Obviously, there's a lot of really great photos and videos there too. There's some stories. Uh, and you know, one of the things on there that I thought was uh, you know, you guys have done over 400,000 uh trucks that you have worked on that that you've helped outfit. Uh 26,000 five-star reviews. Uh, you guys have, you know, definitely over a couple hundred employees there. I mean, this is a growing business. And one other thing I'd I wanted to point out too, because I've seen some of your social posts, is uh some of the stuff you guys have done with first responders and outfitting some of these vehicles uh for them. And I thought that that was just uh, you know, when you talked about like taking care of the the right people, um taking care of our first responders in those ways, man. I I've uh there's some great builds, and I know you guys have have been award you know winning in some of the things you've done out there too. So I don't know if you want to talk to that much, but I just thought that was uh another thing I I saw that I just wanted to kind of salute you guys as a company for you know backing the people who are helping us out on that in you know day-to-day life in that way.

SPEAKER_01 20:24

As you express, from first responders to to police departments to uh EMTs to uh you name it. I mean, we're we're we're trying to accommodate to everybody. And um, those are the folks who have our backs, so we want to make sure we have theirs. And uh when we can provide them with something that makes their life easier and makes their their job more efficient, uh, and we're able to provide them with something that uh it's easy for them to use, uh, especially when you're like in a life-threatening situation and they need to grab grab some tools or grab a piece of equipment or grab gear or whatever, uh they know right where it is, or not searching for something because time matters in those situations. So uh accommoding to those folks who who are on the front lines uh when time is of the essence is huge. Uh so it's you know, we're super we're super lucky, we're super grable to work with a lot of a lot of great uh a lot of great folks, a lot of great agencies, a lot of uh a lot of great departments. And uh, you know, they've they've expressed the same type of feedback about um you know just how the systems have made their lives and their jobs so much easier. And it's uh it's one of those things when it's it's a life or death and time matters. It's uh it's a huge thing that really accommodates to those folks and uh to making sure that uh they're helping the folks that need to help.

Payload Limits And Real World Loads

George Blitch 21:42

Yeah, no, it it is, man. There's times of the essence when you have organizational tools in the toolbox, uh, you know, quite literally, or in your drawer system, being able to know where everything is and be able to grab it. Uh, I mean you guys also sell some first aid kits on on online through in your accessories where everything's right there where you need it. You Know and so if you are are maybe needing to get something that will kind of cover those bases, you know, you guys have that there uh under the accessories tab on the website, check those out. Um, one thing I did want to circle back onto was the idea of payloads because when people get the drawer system or they get the cargo glide, you know, uh I used to go and have the back of my truck would be wide open um back in the dark ages. And uh we would be able to sometimes take a pallet of corn if we were gonna go and fill some feeders out here at our ranch in Texas, you know, take a couple of the bags off the top, and we could be able to get a forklift and and kind of put everything in there uh in the back. And then I worried too a little bit about, you know, when I was first looking at the system uh and and thinking about what I was gonna get in the configurations as far as car, you know, cargo capacity, payload, um, to what can I put in there? And it was a worry that was needless because whether it's the payload capacity on top of the cargo glide or the drawer system, there was never gonna be a shortcut that I needed to worry about. Like it was going to handle everything I needed as far as weight capacity. And I'd love to talk about that because I think people who are thinking about getting that kind of system, they worry about okay, is you know, are we gonna be able to kind of load up all the heavy equipment on top of the drawer system or on top of the cargo glide? Is it going to, you know, um have any limitations? And I I think it it's important to hear from you that I don't feel like there's going to be any limitations. In fact, it it's quite a amazing capacity that you guys have for payloads still with these systems. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 23:33

So I mean I mean, I mean, uh there are limitations to everything, but uh, you know, it's for our actual the actual drawer system, the actual payload on top is 2,000 pounds, and you can you can load 200 pounds in each drawer so that function uh exactly as it should. Um so I mean, for those guys who are worried about, oh, I load more four-wheeler in my truck, like it's just gonna work for me, no problem. You can throw load your four-wheeler on top without any issue. Uh, you know, up to 2,000 pounds and don't have to worry about a thing. Plus, you still have your store underneath for for whatever else you need to throw in for your activity. Um, the payload is pretty magnificent. And then you look at the cargo glide itself, we have everything from our CG 600, which is our half-width, you know, as the name alludes to 600-pound payload on top of the half width. And then we've got everything from uh 1500-pound payload on the full size all the way up to 2200 pounds uh from uh a five and a half foot bed to an eight-foot bed for the cargo glads. So it's uh the payload is is something that was obviously very uh very heavily considered. And wanted to make sure we're still accommodating to a lot of folks what they're trying to do, and that's that's huge. So yeah. And even with the combination of the drawer system and the cargo glide, you know, that 2,000 pound payload on top of the cargo on top of the drawer system, and then you want to throw to throw a car glide on top of the drawer system, you can still get a cargo glide that's gonna handle 1,500 pounds on top of your drawer system. So it's it's the possibilities are not limitless, but close to it. So as long as you're not throwing like a skid steer or a bob can or something on top, you're gonna be just fine.

George Blitch 25:08

It's uh and you're gonna be using a trailer in that sense anyway, right? I mean, 99% of the time this is going to get everything you need for fit function form. So I think that that for that 1%, hey, throw it on the trailer.

SPEAKER_01 25:20

Absolutely. And kind of touching back on that, so that that 2,000 pound payload uh and the 200 200 pounds per drawer is for the full-size system. Then you get to our mid-size system, which is our one big single mega drawer. That payload is a thousand pounds and 400 pounds in the drawer itself. Um, and the difference there being with the with the mid-size truck, there's no center vert uh like you see in the full-size truck. So there's there you don't have that center bar in the mid-size, so it decreased the payload, but it's still pretty darn significant. I mean, I mean, you can still get a lot on top of there. I mean, up to a thousand pounds uh as you express, and you're loading pallets on top. Uh, we've done shoots and uh previously and worked with folks where you know with our one of our ambassadors, Danny Bolton, his family runs a uh a coffee farm in Hawaii, you know, loading a full pound of a full pallet of coffee beans on top of the system uh without without any issue on his mid-size. It was it's pretty impressive. Uh what do you think? You're curious to like, I don't know if this is gonna do it, and you throw it on there and and you work with it, and you realize it's it's not an issue at all. And it's it's a payload is huge. So for those considering you know, payload is a factor, uh it hasn't been an issue from from what we've seen.

Where To Buy Teasers Closing

George Blitch 26:32

Yeah, I've I've everything I've need to throw it out when I'm working on the ranch, all my heavy equipment there. Uh I've been able to do that all in that feed, whatever it is for those who are working on farm and ranches, it's going to to cover all your needs, all your tools, everything you need organized. And I just again I'm I'm so thankful for the for having this system. And uh you've ruined me now. I I'll never go back, man. Uh I'm I'm a happy ruined. This is you and me balls, you and me balls. It's the best. I love it. Uh, Casey, for folks who who might want to, you know, learn more about uh what's going on and in your journey, your socials if you'd like to share them. Um and then you know where people can find you know decked uh socials that handles and and uh website there if you wouldn't mind. And uh, you know, because I'm I know that there's gonna a lot of you uh folks that are gonna be listening to this want to learn more and uh go ahead and get their orders going. So uh yeah, why don't you tell them where to go? Absolutely.
