Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rubbermaid 1191 ActionPacker Storage Box, 35-Gallon
Customer Review: Actual size of this 35-gallon toolbox
Summary: 5 Stars
Just received this box and am going to use it on the back of my mid-size pickup (2008 Chevy Colorado) for additional storage. This container is really perfect for this chore! It can be easily bungee corded in or by any other method you wish to use and it provides a great weather tight area on the outside of your cab to place generous size items that you do not wish to be inside your cab area. Plus, it can be taken out of the bed of your truck in seconds to utilize all that space that you have back there when large moving projects come around! Mine will be bungeed to the frond of the box facing the rear.
The sizes stated in Amazons ad can be confusing. The actual outside measurement sizes are: 38.8 inches wide, 19.8 inches deep (front to back) and 17.7 inches high. A perfect size for my 'mid-size pick-up'. Hope this info helps you to make your decision, much easier.

We've used a couple smaller ActionPackers for camping. Got this one for a "camp kitchen." Should have room for all the gear plus dry goods, etc. These things are great--can be used as a seat or table. Tough enough to deter many pesky small critters and should stay dry in most storms.Customer Review: Great Storage Container

This is my second ActionPacker because it is a very useful storage container. I store my camping gear and emergency supplies in it. I take it when I go camping because it is extremely rugged and doubles as camping bench/table. It is made of lightweight material so the container by itself is not heavy. The lid is strong and durable. The latch provides an opening so that a padlock can be used for security/safety. Although, the latch is made of hard plastic so if someone really wanted to open the unit they'd find a way or I imagine they could just pick it up and take it. So, for added security it would be nice if the unit had some external handles or tie-downs for a security cable, but it doesn't. The unit is a decent size, but also fits in the back seat of my 4-door Saturn. The container, as far as I can tell, does not provide an air/water tight seal when closed, but when the latch is close does provide a firm seal. Overall, a great container and I would buy it again.Customer Review: Great for Storage
Summary: 4 Stars
So we are moving our family of four to Costa Rica and we thought these action packers would be great to get out belongings there safe and sound. They hold a lot of our stuff and they are super tough. They made the flight without a bump or scratch on our stuff and the action packers themselves look brand new still. They didn't get 5 stars because they weigh 13 pounds alone and that took away from the 50 pounds your allowed on an airline. Though I doubt they would be as sturdy if they were light weight.Customer Review: Great for Travel

I love these cases. I'm a performer and I have about 8 of them. I use them as luggage for my props and merchandise. They (and the stuff inside) have survived airports all around the world. The only reason I didn't give them a 5 is they don't have enough gripping room on the sides to carry them.
