I bought the hang up storage bag, it is very nice! Put the top in and hang the bag on the wall.

I don't see any problem with that, as long as you set it down *very* gently, and make sure it's in a safe spot so no one steps on it!

Could you store it on it's edge like P-car hardtops are stored? They make a dolly for this specific purpose.

Yes, it looks like you could store it in any orientation. The top is strong and lightweight, so I don't see any problems. The biggest challenge is to find a *safe* place to store it. I'm going to try hanging it, flat, from my ceiling (part of my garage has a storage loft area, with a 7' ceiling below as a result).
