My buddy and I use "Action Packers" plastic tubs from WalMart.
Large, black, plastic storage tub. We store and transport the gear in them as they have lids so can be stacked and can even be locked and used as luggage on flights. After the dive, the gear goes in the tubs for the trip home.
Take them out of the truck, set them on the ground and fill from a hose. In winter, carry the whole tub to the bathroom and put everything in the bathtub. Let soak a hour or so and drain. Hang eveything up to dry.
Regulators, computers, watches, etc.. all go in the bathroom sink away from the heavier "bulky" items.
Rinse out the plasric tub while the rest of the gear is drying. When everything is dry, neatly stack it all in the tub again and put it somewhere out of your way.
My buddy has gear up to 18 years old (BCs from his teens) that, other than a little sun-fading and some wear on the webbing still looks and works perfect.
My gear, mostly about 2 years old now, still all looks new... Well, I do have a "clear" snorkel that has gone all funny yellow and brown, but you get my drift.
OTH: Like Uncle Pug, as long as it stays wet, I don't worry about it. Just rinse the inside of the GoldCore wetsuit between saltwater dives if possable as the salt starts to make the inner surface less slipery for getting it on and off after several dives in one day (it usualy dries in a few minutes).
