Moveable cargo support panel for use in a vehicle

This invention generally relates to cargo handling in vehicles. More particularly, this invention relates to a system for repositioning cargo that is positioned within a cargo compartment of a vehicle. A cargo supporting device supports cargo within a vehicle compartment in more than one position. The cargo supporting device includes at least one moveable panel having a cargo supporting surface. The moveable panel moves from a first position that is relatively distant from a cargo access point to a second position that is closer to the cargo access point. The moveable panel effectively brings one or more cargo items closer to an individual to make them more readily accessible.
