What is claimed is: 1. A refrigerator drawer assembly comprising: a pan support comprising a wire member having a first side and a second side; a first bracket coupled to said first side using a first coupling system; a second bracket coupled to said second side using a second coupling system different than the first coupling system wherein said second bracket is substantially identical to said first bracket; and wherein said first coupling system comprises a U-shaped wire member coupled to said first side, and said second coupling system comprises at least two hooks coupled to said second side, said first bracket coupled to said U-shaped wire member, said second bracket coupled to said hooks. 2. A refrigerator drawer assembly in accordance with claim 1 wherein said first and second brackets are coupled to said wire member such that they are removable without using tools. 3. A refrigerator drawer assembly in accordance with claim 1 wherein each said bracket comprises a first rail with slots and a second rail with holes, said first rail of one bracket coupled to one of said first and second sides and said second rail of the other bracket is coupled to the other of said first and second sides. 4. A refrigerator drawer assembly in accordance with claim 3 wherein said first rail of said first bracket is coupled to said first side, and said second rail of said second bracket is coupled to said second side. 5. A refrigerator drawer assembly in accordance with claim 4, wherein said first coupling system comprises a U-shaped wire member, and said second coupling system comprises at least two hooks. 6. A refrigerator drawer assembly in accordance with claim 1, wherein said first coupling system comprises a U-shaped wire member aligned with a right front portion of said pan support, and said second coupling system comprises a U-shaped wire member extending exterior to a plane defined by a left front portion of said pan support, said first bracket coupled to said U-shaped wire member aligned with said right front portion, said second bracket coupled to said U-shaped wire member extending exterior to the plane defined by said left front portion. 7. A method for assembling a refrigerator drawer assembly, said method comprising: forming a pan support wire member from a continuous wire, the pan support wire member having a first side and a second side; providing a plurality of substantially identical brackets including a first bracket and a second bracket; removably coupling the first bracket to the first side using a first U-shaped member coupled to said first side; and removably coupling the second bracket to the second side using a plurality of hooks coupled to said second side. 8. A pan support assembly comprising: a pan support wire member comprising a first side including a U-shaped member and a second side including a plurality of hooks; and a first bracket and a second bracket each comprising: a sidewall; a first rail extending from said sidewall, said first rail comprising a plurality of slots sized to receive said U-shaped member; and a second rail extending from said sidewall, said second rail comprising a plurality of apertures each sized to receive a hook extending from said pan support wire member; and wherein said first and said second rails each comprise an inwardly turned lip portion; and wherein said plurality of slots in said first rail of said first bracket receive said U-shaped member and said plurality of apertures in said second rail of said second bracket receive a corresponding hook of said plurality of hooks. 9. A pan support assembly in accordance with claim 8 wherein said second rail comprises a plurality of apertures each sized to receive a hook extending from the pan support wire member. 10. A refrigerator drawer assembly comprising: a pan support comprising a continuously formed wire member having a first side and a second side, said first side having a U-shaped member defining a channel and said second side including a plurality of hooks; a first bracket coupled to said first side such that said first bracket is removable without tools, said first bracket having a plurality of slots forming a lip positioned within said channel; and a second bracket coupled to said second side such that said second bracket is removable without tools, said second bracket defining a plurality of apertures receiving a corresponding hook of said plurality of hooks. 11. An assembly in accordance with claim 10 wherein said second bracket substantially identical to said first bracket. 12. An assembly in accordance with claim 10 wherein said first bracket coupled to said first side with a first coupling system, said second bracket coupled to said second side with a second coupling system different from said first coupling system.
