Who uses a toolbox?
You’d be surprised how many trades rely on toolboxes day in, day out. Here’s who’s making the most of them:
Electricians
use organiser boxes to keep terminals, testers, and fixings neat and easy to find, saving time on the job.
Plumbers
carry sealants, fittings, and hand tools without the hassle of loose gear cluttering their workspace.
Builders
rely on sturdy cases to keep power tools and accessories safe and sound while moving between sites.
Maintenance teams
benefit from grab-and-go stackable units that make quick work of unexpected repairs or routine checks.
A good toolbox keeps it all organised and efficient. When everything’s in its place, it’s easier to focus on the job without wasting time searching for what you need.
What toolboxes are ideal for
There are a few key things toolboxes are really useful for:
Transporting tools between jobs and sites
A sturdy toolbox makes moving your gear straightforward and keeps everything together, so nothing gets left behind or damaged on the way.
Storing fasteners, bits, blades and fixings
Small parts are easy to lose. Toolboxes with organiser compartments help keep these items sorted and ready when needed, saving you time and hassle.
Protecting kit from rain, dust or impact
Good toolboxes offer solid protection against the elements and accidental knocks, ensuring your tools stay in working order no matter where you’re working.
Organising drills, drivers and hand tools
Keeping your main tools tidy and accessible means less fumbling around and more getting on with the job. Dedicated spaces or foam inserts make this simple.
Setting up workshop and van storage systems
Toolboxes aren’t just for the site - they’re essential for keeping your van or workshop organised. Modular and stackable systems help you maximise space and keep everything in order.
How to choose the right toolbox
Not all toolboxes are created the same — here’s the lowdown on what to look for before you buy:
Size & capacity
Big rolling boxes are great for bulky site tools, while smaller organisers are spot on for fixings, bits and hand tools. Think about the types of jobs you do most to choose the right balance between space and portability.
Stackability
Modular systems like Dewalt TSTAK, Makita Makpac and ToughBuilt ClipTech let you build a setup that’s just right for you. Being able to stack and lock units together means you can customise your kit and keep everything organised on the move.
Durability and locks
Look for tough latches, padlock hasps and weatherproof seals that protect your gear from knocks, dust and rain. A solid toolbox not only keeps tools safe but also lasts longer, standing up to the rough conditions of a worksite.
Types of toolboxes at ITS
When it comes to toolboxes, everyone needs something a bit different depending on the job. At ITS, we’ve got the main styles covered to keep your tools organised and easy to carry.
Toolboxes with organisers
Toolboxes with organisers are great if you’ve got plenty of small bits and pieces like screws, fixings, or terminals. The organisers help keep everything in its place, so you’re not digging around when you need something quick.
Toolboxes with wheels
If you’re moving heavier gear between sites, a wheeled toolbox takes a lot of the strain off your back. Roll it along instead of carrying it, especially handy when your tools weigh a bit more.
Toolboxes with drawers
Drawer toolboxes give you quick access to a range of tools without having to unpack everything. They work well if you’re setting up a workshop or van and want things neatly sorted but within reach.
Tool chests
Tool chests are the bigger storage units, often stackable and tough enough for the busiest sites. They’re ideal for carrying everything from power to hand tools in one go, and can be locked up tight for safety.
Accessories that make life easier
Want to level up your toolbox game? These extras help you keep things tidy and get tools where they need to be fast:
Organiser inserts
Trays and compartments stop small parts from getting lost or mixed up. When screws, nails, or fittings have their own spot, you save time searching and reduce frustration on the job.
Foam kits
Cut-to-shape foam cushions your tools, keeping them snug and protected from knocks and bumps. It’s especially useful for delicate or expensive gear that needs a bit of extra care.
Stackable bases and trolleys
Adding wheels or stackable bases means you can move your toolbox around the site quickly, without lifting heavy loads. It makes a big difference when you’re carrying multiple boxes or working across different areas.
