I have an interest in insulating and rough finishing half the attic over my garage and using for storage.

Concerned about how to insulate between roof trusses. Any suggestions? I plan to run HVAC duct to the area when finished.

    The trusses are probably 2x4 material, so they will not be able to hold the insulation well. You will have to tie the insulation up with wire. Make sure the ducts are entirely inside the insulated space. I know you aren't going to do it, but it can't hurt to say not to cut any of the trusses.
