Does anyone else use tackle boxes of various sizes as organizers?  For example, one for first aid, one for flashlights, batteries, and chargers, one for medications, one for small tools and related items,  one for things that don't have a home anywhere else, and... so on...

...I discovered good quality, plastic tool boxes work well to store/retrieve sundries.

...Currently our Walmart supplies Stanley brand, a good quality...normally there's a few sizes on the shelf.

...I recently bought the Stanley large double decker; it is amazingly "storage flexible & efficient" while built strong to last many years...we use one in the cab for maps, misc needed papers & almost all the small, loose objects.
...the reason it works well?...first, it has organization arrangement plus many of the dividers are removable/movable...and you the two storage decks can be stacked in either order, top or bottom.

...the down side on most tackle boxes are two fold: storage division are mostly very small for lures, etc. and the whole box needs to splay out to access most storage spaces especially stuff at or near the bottom.

Hope this helps, Vaughn

If there's a Sears in your area check out their plastic tool boxes. They come in all shapes and sizes. They are very durable and light. Having ran over one by accident trying to evade a flash flood zone all it did was deform it slightly. I still use it today. I keep them stored on the floor of passenger side seat. They have been bouncing around for years no harm done to interior or otherwise.

Almost as useful as my $2 Walmart backscratcher.
