do your pole fit into a vivaro we have a movano and they only just fit inside there.

we hook them on the wall with tool hooks like you use for ladder storage.

the walls are used for storing  over equipment . the only over options is hanging them from the roof

I use a rope across the back of the van about 18 inches from the roof, I slide the poles in butt end first with the brushes just resting over the rope.

You could use lightweight corrugated pvc sheet supported by 2 wooden cross pieces.

We use  4 inch sewer piping which you can get at any plumbers . The brackets screw onto the ribs on the roof in the van and in the vivaro you can fit two if necessary.
It is cost effective and works well for us.

If the link works you can see it set up in a  Vivaro.
