An overhead storage assembly, vendable as a kit, includes a plurality of panels each of a rectangular platform having dimensions that are integer multiples of conventional structural spacing. The panels may be joined to each other to form a common support surface resting on a plurality of transverse support pieces connected at the ends to hanger assemblies that are attached to the overhead structure of a building. Each panel includes a first plurality of parallel elongate elements and a second plurality of elongate elements aligned perpendicular to the first plurality of parallel elements. Each panel, moreover, may include closely paired elongate elements near a longitudinal edge to increase the sectional stiffness of the panel and to facilitate releasable connection of the panels to the traverse support pieces and hanger assemblies. The hanger assemblies may comprise matching upper and lower straps that are secured to each other at selected suspension lengths.
