I have a few tote bags, they come in handy as well.
These are the "bathtubs" I was talking about. I have the Dewalt one. It doesn't even have a tray or anything, just a big tub. It was nice that anything and everything fit, but I couldn't get to any if it, and packing it was a game of tetris.
How well do they roll loaded? I.e. after loaded with couple impacts, and sawall, variety sockets, wrenches, etc, will they roll both out to the yard at PnP and back. Or will I be carrying the pieces? I've been admiring them, but haven't pulled trigger as I'm afraid they won't last...
They roll pretty good loaded. Mine has been run up and down the gravel driveway, through yards and on pavement and stuff. My bottom box is loaded with spools of wire, it Is plenty heavy, I usually buy 500’ rolls of 14 and 12 gauge THHN stranded plus other stuff like 18 ga zip cord and 4 ga welding cable. I went with it because it was a sturdy system that was big enough to pack all of my electrical gear and it had big solid wheels. The Rigid system looked nice and was cheaper, but smaller everything and I wasn’t sure it would work as well as I would like.
Surprisingly well...I roll mine over mostly smooth concrete, but constantly over thick electrical chords, compressor hoses, or if Im lucky, those rubber ramp things that chords fall into, sometimes rough asphalt and dirt. usually compressed air cleans em, simple green works great too. The trick is put the heavy stuff on the bottom. I load up the big bottom box, then stack my heavily loaded small box, and stack up from there. Otherwise my only caveat is the handle flex, and catching knuckles as a result if I don't stack it right. The balance when tilted is nice too. Im 130lbs, which is less than my box, and am able to tilt, balance, and roll with relative ease. The only time I take apart is to get it into the truck bed, which is one of the main reasons I bought it. I wanted a setup that I could load on and off without having to empty it, use ramps, helpers, or struggle.
