Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rubbermaid 11920138 Action Packer Cargo Box, 48-Gallon
Customer Review: Rain-proof storage solution
Summary: 4 Stars
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.
Customer Review: Rubbermaid Action Cargo Box - 48 gallon
Summary: 4 Stars
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.Customer Review: Rubbermaid Action Packer

Summary: 5 Stars
So I have a toyota tacoma 05+ and needed a box that fit in the back of my truck for my winter gear, camping gear, and just general storage. I was going to get a truck box but I did not want something that was permanent. I wanted to have the freedom of removing this item at will and so I went with the Action Packer 48 gal. So far this box has been amazing. The only issue I had was that when traveling for 3 days in rain that was so powerful it flooded highways, I had to seal the lid with a window sealer ( stick on ). Other than this I would suggest this item to any one! I purchased a 5.00 dollar sealer foam window stripping that was weatherproof, inserted inside of the lid and now she is perfect. IF your debating on what to get get this! The other "boxes" are durable and all but they are small and you have to put multiple of them in the truck. This does it all.Customer Review: Service-delivery
Summary: 4 Stars
The product was and is excelent, but to get it delivered was a joke, it took 7 days before the order was filled and shipped, I could not change the delivery terms, first then when I coiuld it was to late. Please offer a better choice of delivery . Never again I will use Amazon because if you need a product at a certain time you cannot count on it.
