Small containers are part of my purchased kitchen equipment. My interior planning started with the larger openings and framing, leaving the smaller storage decisions to fit around that layout.
I bought New Star Eight-Ounce Squeeze Bottles as part of my camper van equipment.

Small Containers in the Interior-Equipment Plan
I used SketchUp to plan the interior and put body openings ahead of the framing, floor and wall panels.
My Interior Preparation notes included the shower drain and openings for three water tanks in that preparation sequence.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware for later framing mounts and door trim for the later insulation and paneling.

My Takeaway for the Build
Planning the interior before enclosure helped me think about the space occupied by everyday equipment as well as the large components. My eight-ounce squeeze-bottle purchase is a small example. The OXO and Tablecraft alternatives offer larger bodies, so container dimensions and dispensing access are useful alongside capacity.

Format
Clear squeeze bottles with pointed caps
A pointed dispensing cap changes how a small quantity of liquid is applied. These New Star bottles hold eight ounces each, making capacity and cap shape separate comparison points. For a van cupboard or project kit, plan the storage position and identify the contents clearly. The bottle format does not determine which liquid belongs in it; keep that choice tied to the material and container requirements.
The opening affects dispensing control, while capacity affects how much the bottle carries. Both matter when choosing a small storage container.
Alternative products
Two Alternatives to Compare
The OXO set combines two larger bottle sizes and measurement markings. Tablecraft offers a simpler twelve-ounce bottle, so both alternatives take more storage space per bottle than my eight-ounce set.
These clear bottles use pointed caps for dispensing small amounts of liquid. Their twelve-ounce bodies offer more capacity per bottle than an eight-ounce version.
