These are a few storage boxes I put together for camp gear.
The DeWalt drawer box I use for all my kitchen utensils - 3 drawers, locking drawers and easy to pack and stackable with latches.
The two ammo boxes purchased from Princess Auto (like Harbor Freight). Fairly strong, light weight and stackable.

One is my Jet Boil kit with Jet Boil stove, pots and I added these heavier ROCK pot/pan set. These are fantastic. They are non-stick, really distribute the heat, easy cleaning and have been durable. I hunt and trap quite a bit in the fall and winter and pack this on my ATV for making hot breakfasts and lunches while on the trail. Works great for mid day lunch breaks on the road too.

The other ammo box is my Tarp Kit with plenty of rope, tarp, really strong stakes and pins. We have lots of rock so the tent pegs that come with tents are useless.

Back to the DeWalt boxes. I have a few different types and use one for Tools/parts and the other for compressor/tire repair kits. They can be locked, they are stackable with latches to secure one atop the other, water tight and strong. I have one more that is being turned into a portable solar generator box with power in from the vehicle as well as solar. USB/12 volt outlets, voltage gauge and likely amber and white LED lights just because. This will be portable and when on the road I can stack it on top of my tool box, secure it and plug into my dual battery/isolator line via 150 amp Anderson Plug. I can also plug in my portable rear winch (4000 lb) - picture to follow. This is a quick, easy, inexpensive way to have a portable rear winch. Picture to follow.

I use. Similar ammo crate From MTM. Acr8


there are two different sizes in the same family. They’re only different in height, so stack perfectly. Acr5 and acr12.
