A storage VBS with opposing side walls, a top, a bottom, a back with an open or openable front, houses moveable upper and lower adjustable shelving boxes. The shelving boxes are moveably motorized and controlled sequentially. An upper shelf is made accessible by driving an upper shelving box out of the VBS and then adjusting the shelf height for storage or retrieval of an item. The upper shelving box must be returned to the VBS prior to operating the lower shelving.

1. An upper vertical box system comprising: a vertical box structure;a motorized platform;said motorized platform horizontally moves a shelving box from inside of said upper vertical box structure to an outside extended position;wherein said motorized platform is reversibly moved out of and back into said vertical box structure using first and second channel guides, wherein said first channel guide is pivotally mounted to said vertical box structure at one end, and wherein a second end of said first channel guide has a radial bearing placed in said second channel guide that is secured to said motorized platform in a side to side direction, said first channel guide is rotatively driven by a linear actuator having a fixed end attached to said vertical box structure, and a moveable end with a radial bearing placed intermediate said first and second ends of said first channel guide, such that, as said linear actuator extends or retracts, the radial bearing pushes or pulls against a side wall of said first channel guide and rotatively pushes or pulls against said second channel guide thus reversibly moving said motorized platform and said shelving box;said shelving box is positioned with an open front and at least one shelf;said shelving box is vertically adjusted while in said outside extended position; andwherein said adjusting is controlled with a push button. 2. The upper vertical box system of claim 1 wherein said motorized platform is slidably attached using ball slides mounted horizontally to each upper side member of said motorized platform and to side members of said vertical box structure. 3. The upper vertical box system of claim 1 wherein said shelving box is vertically moveable using ball slides fixedly mounted to opposite sides of said motorized platform and slidably mounted to corresponding sides of said shelving box. 4. The upper vertical box system of claim 3 wherein said shelving box is vertically moveable using at least two ball slides mounted on each side. 5. The upper vertical box system of claim 1 wherein after said motorized platform and shelving box are extendedly moved out of said upper vertical box structure, a geared motor is signaled to rotate a spooling member such as to controllably lower or to raise said shelving box by means of a cable and pulley arrangement, a first end of said cable fastened to said bottom member of said motorized platform, passing downwards through a first cavity encircling around a first pulley connected to said shelving box and back up through a second cavity and then around a second pulley, on to a third pulley located on the opposite side of said motorized platform, and down thru a third cavity located in the bottom of said motorized platform and around a forth pulley connected to said opposite side of said shelving box and back through a fourth cavity under a fifth pulley wherein the other end of said cable is fastened to said spooling member such as to controllably wind or unwind the cable by said geared motor thus positioning said shelving box for reachable shelves.
