The Rubbermaid ActionPacker Cargo Box is a sturdy, durable, and "48-gallon big" storage container.
It weighs a little over 24 pounds, is 43.
8" by 20" by 17", transportable, and lockable.
With those dimensions and attributes, the storage uses of this ActionPacker are many! Here are just a couple of the ways in which you can use your Rubbermaid Cargo Box.
1.
Tool Storage: The Cargo Box is the ideal container to store your tools (both power and hand) in.
It is big enough to hold those awkward shaped tools (like circular saws and sanders) and long enough to handle your longer tools (like hand saws, long handled bolt cutters, and tree branch loppers).
And it is also large enough to hold a lot of different tools all at the same time; thus, keeping all your most often used tools in a single place for easy locating.
No more having to search in multiple cabinets or on different workbenches for those tools you use all the time.
The Cargo Box comes with a lockable latch (I suggest using a cable lock) which allows you to help secure your tools and is transportable (whether you are carrying the Cargo Box in the bed of your pickup, the back of your van, or on a trailer).
It is also a great size for sliding/fitting under your workbench.
2.
Camping: If you are like me, you go camping once or twice a year.
I try and keep all my camping gear in one place in my garage so I can easily locate the camping items when I am getting ready to go camping again.
Unfortunately, my camping items have a tendency to move around in my garage between campouts.
Sometimes, I am responsible for the movement and others times members of my family contribute to the movement problem.
It's amazing that in addition to all the bigger items (e.
g.
, sleeping bags, tents, and air mattresses) that we all take camping, how many small items I also take with me (and I'm betting you probably do also) to make the camping just a little bit easier (pots and pans, silverware, plates, cups, small collapsible stools and stands, etc).
Sure you can carry them in cardboard boxes but why not store and transport them all in your Cargo Box which will keep them both safe and dry.
Additionally, you can use your Cargo Box to keep your extra sets of camping pants, shirts, socks, and jacket, clean and dry.
3.
Hunting and fishing gear: Although you may use a gun rack, fishing rod rack, or perhaps just a closet in your garage or house to store your fishing rods and guns, there are many other hunting or fishing items that you probably have as well.
In the hunting category, you probably have boxes of shells, a clay pigeon thrower, a hunting vest, targets, etc.
, and if you load your own shells, you can add a lot more items to those I have just mentioned.
In the fishing category, you probably have an assortment of lures, hooks, sinkers, reels, spools of fishing line, fillet knives, a life vest, a fishing net, one or more tackle boxes, etc.
As with your tools and camping gear, the ActionPacker Cargo Box is a great place to store your hunting and fishing supplies.
These are just three of the ways you can use your Rubbermaid ActionPacker Cargo Box and there are many more.
My guess is you have already thought of a couple other uses just while you were reading this article!
