Great for storing garden supplies, holiday decorations, seasonal clothes, and more, the Rubbermaid 24-gallon storage tote is equipped with a tough, lockable latch to keep out the dust. Weather resistant material stands up to the elements for years of reliable storage. An easy bungee tie-down keeps things in place. The unit is stackable for stable vertical storage of a few totes, one on top of the other, and nestable for compact storage of empty totes. Lightweight plastic makes the container easy to transport. The tote measures 17.4 by 19.3 by 26.5 (height by width by length). --Brian D. Olson

An almost perfect container November 2, 2009
Joshua Lent
Works well. Locks well. Stays dry well. The only thing that could be improved would be to use a heavier-weight plastic; the bottom corners can dent a bit. Otherwise, it's a great container and is my "go to" packing item.

For transport or storage these can't be beat. I use them for power tool storage and another for camping stuff,
Rain-proof storage solution October 10, 2009

We purchased two Action Packer cargo boxes to fit on our Valley Cargo Carrier. The 48-gallon and the 32-gallon boxes fit perfectly side-by-side on the carrier. We expected the boxes to be rain-proof and waterproof, and they do not disappoint. We have driven thru heavy rain with driving wind with these babies, and everything inside was a dry as could be - not a drop of moisture inside. We leave them outside when we camp, through some severe thunderstorms and still no rain gets in. They fit our purpose perfectly.
We did not purchase the cargo boxes from Amazon; our local Wal-Mart had much better pricing in the automotive department.
If you want to add wheels, the 48-gallon model has drill-out spots for attaching casters. Personally, I don't want to do that because I want to keep the integrity of the water tight properties intact, and I don't want wheels on the cargo carrier. But it is certainly an option for those who want it, and looks pretty easy to accomplish.
So why 4 stars instead of 5? The handles. I wish that the handles were deeper or perhaps had folding handles. The boxes are difficult to carry when heavily packed. I might try to drill out holes to add rope handles, but that water tight issue has stopped me so far. Other than that one detail, these cargo boxes are perfect for us.
Rubbermaid Action Cargo Box - 48 gallon September 24, 2009
M. Fleetwood
I would have given this 5 stars if it was not so difficult for one person to life, as the handles are very far apart. I ended up adding some rope loops where the handles are located and now it is much easier to pick up. Other than that, the box itself is sturdy, roomy, and functional.
ActionPacker- a reliable shelter for my stuffs September 10, 2009
Welmer T. Cruz
The box is just that. A kind of shelter to all my delicate electronic devices.
I use it indoor, but I have no doubt it can be outdoor too.
I recently found it, in a garage sale. For about $ 20, it was a deal.
Features: big interior space, made with hard material, and serve as an extra chair.
I strongly recommend Rubbermaid, and specially these boxes.
