A storage receptacle is disposed under a vehicle seat and is mounted on the seat supports supporting the seat on the floor of the vehicle by drawer runners. Accordingly, the seat can be moved to a loading position past the forward edge of the seat and then moved to a storage position underneath the seat for transport. Since the receptacle is mounted on the seat supports, the receptacle is removed and installed in the vehicle when the seat is removed and installed in the vehicle. Optionally, the runners may be configured to permit movement of the receptacle from beneath the seat to a storage position past the rear end of the seat, so that access is permitted to the receptacle through, for example, open rear van doors when the seat is installed in a van.
