Shelving for storage bin?

2017 ACE 30.2. I’d like to put a couple wire shelves in the top third of this garage area. Doesn’t feel like there’s much on the walls left and right to anchor into. The thought of putting screws in there makes me nervous but not sure how else to affix them. Click image for larger version

We have the same year and model. Those walls are very thin. You couldn’t mount shelves, they would tear thru the thin wood. We don’t seem to have an issue with storage in that particular compartment. We can put a lot in there and it’s arranged very neatly. Everything from 0-gravity chairs to folding tables and storage containers, large Outdoor RV mat, small floor mats, boot trays,games, fishing poles and tackle box’s all fits perfectly.

Hi All. I did get around to installing some shelving in the garage. It worked out very well. Pictures attached. I used 1/8” x 2” toggle bolts and there was zero conflict behind the walls. Plenty sturdy. Easy and cheap storage upgrade.Click image for larger version
