1. A device with a wall-mounted configuration and a freestanding configuration, comprising: a first vertical support with a top end, a front side, and two side walls, the front side, top end, and two side walls defining a cavity, the first vertical support further including a plurality of horizontal support members pivotably attached at intervals to the first vertical support, wherein the horizontal support members can be releasably placed in at least two locked positions; anda plurality of second vertical supports hingeably attached to the top end of the first vertical support above the plurality of horizontal support members, wherein the first vertical support and the second vertical supports are configurable in two positions: in a first position, the first vertical support and second vertical supports form a freestanding support structure and in a second position the second vertical supports are collapsed such that the plurality of second vertical supports reside in the cavity and form a wall-mounted support structure. 2. A device according to claim 1, wherein said second vertical supports are adjustable in height. 3. A device according to claim 1, wherein the horizontal support members can be pivoted independently. 4. A device according to claim 1, wherein the horizontal support members each include a top surface and one of the locked positions of each of the horizontal support members causes the top surface to be substantially horizontal when the device is in the freestanding configuration and another one of the locked positions of each of the horizontal support members causes the top surface to be substantially horizontal when the device forms the wall-mounted support structure. 5. A storage device according to claim 1, wherein the horizontal support members include a third locked position in which the top surface of the horizontal support member is substantially flush with the front side of the first vertical support. 6. A system for storing and supporting materials, comprising: a device with a wall-mounted configuration and a freestanding configuration including: a first vertical support with an interior space, a top end and a front side;two second vertical supports hingeably attached to the top end of the first vertical support, wherein the second vertical supports are designed and configured to be housed within the interior space to form the wall-mounted configuration and wherein the second vertical supports are designed and configured to be extended at an angle out from the top end of the first vertical support such that the first vertical support and the second vertical supports support the device in a freestanding position; anda plurality of horizontal support members pivotably attached at intervals to the first vertical support below a location where the two second vertical supports are attached to the first vertical support, each horizontal support member having a top surface, wherein the horizontal support members are configured to be secured in at least three positions including a first position in which the top surface is substantially flush with the front side of the first vertical support, a second position in which the top surface extends away from the front side of the first vertical support and is substantially horizontal when the device is in the freestanding position, and a third position in which the top surface extends away from the front side of the first vertical support and is substantially perpendicular to the front side of the first vertical support when the device is in the wall-mounted configuration; and a wall mounting system including a top mounting bracket and a bottom mounting bracket, wherein the wall mounting system is designed and configured to support the device when the device is in the wall-mounted configuration with the top end secured in the top mounting bracket. 7. A storage and support system for materials, comprising: a plurality of racks, each of the plurality of racks including: a first vertical support with an interior space, a top end and a front side;two vertical supports hingeably attached to the top end of the first vertical support, wherein the second vertical supports are designed and configured to be housed within the interior space to form a wall-mounted configuration of the rack and wherein the second vertical supports are designed and configured to be extended at an angle out from the top end of the first vertical support such that the first vertical support and the second vertical supports support the device in a freestanding position; anda horizontal support member having a width and being pivotably attached to the first vertical support at a location below a point where the two vertical supports are attached to the first vertical support, the horizontal support member having a top surface, wherein the horizontal support member is configured to be secured in three positions including a first position in which the top surface is substantially flush with the front side of the first vertical support, a second position in which the top surface extends away from the front side of the first vertical support and is substantially horizontal when the rack is in the freestanding position, and a third position in which the top surface extends away from the front side of the first vertical support and is substantially perpendicular to the first vertical support when the rack is in the wall-mounted configuration; and a plurality of wall mounting systems, each of the plurality of wall mounting systems being designed and configured to support a one of the plurality of racks in a vertical orientation on a wall when the one of the plurality of racks is in the wall-mounted configuration, wherein the plurality of racks are configured such that, when the plurality of racks are aligned in freestanding positions and in wall-mounted configurations supported in respective ones of the plurality of wall mounting systems, the horizontal support member of each of the plurality of racks is configured to support a portion of construction materials that are substantially longer than the width of any horizontal support member of any of the plurality of racks.
