What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Rubbermaid ActionPacker for its exceptional durability and reliability as a heavy-duty storage solution.

Reviewers value the secure, robust latches that keep contents protected during vibration. Users appreciate the stackable design, making it ideal for organizing tools and gear.

Know before you buy
Yes, the rugged plastic construction is designed to withstand harsh conditions, making it suitable for garage, shed, or truck bed storage. While it is highly durable, it is not airtight or fully waterproof, so it is best to keep it in covered areas if you are storing moisture-sensitive items.
The container features clip-style latches that snap securely into place to keep the lid closed. You can thread a standard padlock or zip tie through the integrated holes on the latches to prevent unauthorized access.
Yes, the rectangular shape and reinforced design allow for stable stacking. However, be mindful of the weight of the items inside to ensure the bottom container remains structurally sound.
The lid is designed with molded channels that allow you to easily wrap bungee cords or ratchet straps over the top. This keeps the box firmly in place during transport without interfering with the locking mechanism.
The ActionPacker is made from a high-density, rigid plastic that resists cracking and impact. It is built to maintain its shape even when fully loaded with heavy equipment.
