The Best Tool Chests to Organize All Your Gear

This impressive steel unit is made up of two separate tool chests, with the smaller, top chest sitting on top of a larger chest. The top chest can also slide into the bottom chest. This design lets you move the unit around so that the entire tool chest can fit easily into a work truck or van. The tool chest comes in red or black, with chrome handles on its six drawers.

The top tool chest has four drawers and storage space on the top. The bottom tool chest has two drawers and an enclosed shelf that can be used to store bottles, sprays, or power tools that will not fit in the drawers. This model is a good choice if you have children, because the top tool chest’s drawers can be locked with a key when not in use.

The WEN Garage Glider Rolling Tool Chest Seat provides storage as well as a place to sit.

The tool chest comes with three large drawers that can be divided for smaller tools and fasteners. It has 16 storage slots for wrenches and screwdrivers on the back of the chest, and two foldable, magnetic storage trays on the ends. While you work, drop your fasteners into the trays to keep them close at hand.

Thick padding on the top of the tool chest provides a comfortable place to sit while you work, and four swivel caster wheels make the WEN easy to reposition.

Hauling power tools is easy with the Stanley 50 Gallon Mobile Chest. It has a storage compartment that’s deep and wide enough to accommodate saws, drills, sanders, oscillating tools, and much more. The tool chest also has a tote tray to organize smaller tools, parts, and accessories.

The chest sits flat when in use, and it can be moved by pulling out its steel handle, tilting it, and rolling it on a pair of heavy-duty wheels. You may need a hand to lift the chest into your vehicle, but you can easily pull it from one location to another. The chest has two metal latches that can and should be closed before moving it so nothing accidentally falls out. You can also lock the chest with the key lock on the lid.

One of the benefits of a plastic tool chest is it’s not as heavy as a metal tool chest. Thanks to its plastic construction, built-in wheels, and pull-out handle, the Stalwart Heavy Duty Rolling Toolbox is easy to move from one site to the next. The two-piece unit has a tool chest with a handle on top and a wheeled tool chest on the bottom. They can be easily separated to provide access to both sets of tools.

There’s plenty of storage, including a drawer with 24 compartments for small parts, two removable tool trays, and a deep compartment for storing larger power tools. The backside of the tool chest has a pair of cable hooks to keep extension cords organized and out of the way.

The Windsor Eight Drawer Wood Tool Chest is made of high-quality wood and is sturdy enough to keep your tools safe. The chest has a walnut stain, chrome-plated handles, and a machinist’s mirror mounted inside the lid.

The tool chest has two full-width drawers and six half-width drawers. Each is lined with felt to prevent tools from rusting. To move the chest, lock the drawers with its single-key system, grab the rubber handle on top, and carry it where you need it.

The Festool SYS 4 Sortainer is an excellent option for storing and organizing your smaller tools and fasteners. Its three large drawers come with dividers that can be adjusted to accommodate any size tool.

This basic tool chest doesn’t come with wheels, but it does have a carrying handle. If you want wheels, you can buy a Festool cart separately. Combine the unit with other pieces of the Festool system to create a personalized tool storage cabinet that can be expanded to fit your needs.
