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

 Not rain proof November 16, 2008
T. K. Childcare (Minneapolis)
The Rubbermaid Action Packer is not rain proof or water proof. The latches create an easy path for rain to come in and wet the contents.
Except for that serious flaw the Action Packer is sturdy, and has convenient latches. I would not buy this for camping or other outdoor use.

This is my second unit of this model. Use for travel keeping items dry in bed of pickup and also use as storage of tools in a barn with high humidity. It keeps tools dry and rust free. Well constructed. Can be used for seating on camping trips.
Outstanding Product September 1, 2008
C. Dan (Hudson on the Gulf, FL)
I needed a durable, waterproof container to transport my tools and general handyman items. During Tropical Storm Fay, I drove from Florida to Tennessee in constant rain, heavy at times. These containers were strapped to a "hitch buddy", a trailer mounted metal cargo carrier. Not one drop of water entered either of the container. I checked out other similar containers, but the Rubbermaid Action packer is clearly top of line.

Trurl (Earth)
I bought a dozen of these trunks 10 years ago to store my belongings and move them easily. I still have those trunks today. They have been shipped across the world and are still in good condition. Of course some have dents in the bottom from shipping, but they are still usable.
Now these boxes are in my shed storing various things. I have over a 100 pounds of books in many of them. These things are waterproof and bug proof. You can even lock them though it takes 2 locks. If you are going to lock it go with this trunk, because the other model that has only 1 latch is easy to "pop" the lid out..
The trunk's price has gone up from $20 at Super Kmart 10 years ago , but the trunk is well worth the price to store all the "junk" you just can't throw away. It definitely deserves 5 starts.
Great Product! June 27, 2008

This is an excellent storage container. Durable, sturdy, tough, keeps water out, the lid stays on well being locked in place by the handles. I've owned one for years and bought several more recently for storage in a damp, dirty basement. I really like how touch the containers are and the fact that you can lock them with a padlock if you want (although it requires 2 padlocks per container at this size). Of the three sizes offered, this size is my favorite because it is large enough to hold a lot but more manageable if you need to carry them around.
