A cargo shelving system for LLVs provides greater mail stowage by the use of coordinated and sufficiently-separated upper and lower shelves, or shelves. The upper and lower shelves both are attached to the LLV by sliding linkages that allow them to retract them to retract into or extend from the cargo area of the LLV. The cargo shelving system for LLVs of the present invention meets all USPS requirements, particularly those recently issued with respect to such stowage systems. A latching system locks the sliding shelves, both in the retracted and extended positions, depending upon the postal carrier preference. Ball-and- socket connections serve to prevent any damage by the articulation of a lever or the like in retracting the latching pin. In an alternative embodiment, the width of the upper shelf is diminished in order to provide an. open-ended shelf for support of mail bins, envelope trays, and the like. Although the upper shelf is diminished in width, the additional storage or stowage space allowed by the upper shelf support system on the sides of the upper shelf provides increased storage area and the ability to haul more mail in a more convenient and efficient manner.
