- Recently purchased the new Milwaukee Packout Crate Divider (Part# 48-22-8040) to go with my crate I use frequently. I share in this video how I use my crate (Part # 48-22-8440), but also how the divider makes it even better.

We, the builders, are wonderful people. One of us is talking for nearly 10 minutes about plastic box and we do watch and listen as it was a miracle.
What I've noticed that the packouts are often more robust that some of the power tools made by Milwaukee. When I checked it turns out that these are made by Keter in Israel.
Yes. They say they make the best boxes (of many brands) there.
My wife often makes the comment “who watches this stuff” as I am watching videos.
It is funny the stuff we are interested in watching.
Who wants to come home and watch somebody do the same thing they do all day at work… builders do. Sadly, I think most people don’t like their jobs because there isn’t a lot of fulfillment in it. The last thing they want to do is watch someone do what they do. Most people in this field do find satisfaction in their work (definitely not all, busy most). I love it. I love the work…I love the tools…. And I love working around other people that do it…
I never knew I would as I was younger, but I’m glad I found my way into it.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Wise and very true words. Being passionate about your work makes a lot of things easier and helps to find pleasure in little things like tools and storage systems.
Looks a lot like the workmanship found on Isreali Ammo cans !
@@MORGANSMaintenance pride In your gear , and forethought is the sign of a good Craftsman . Always looking for better/ best !
@@chrisfyfe9212 yeah, it can be a curse sometimes because your brain can’t shut off from thinking of what you “might” could do……but there is no better feeling then when it works out and makes your job either easier or more enjoyable.
Wife walked over to see what I was watching. “It’s Saturday! You don’t get enough of this during the 60hrs you spend during the week?”
Me. “Nope.”
I just commented on Stefan Kawalec’s comment for this video that my wife says the same thing.
When you love what you do….you can’t get enough of it!
It won’t be long she will hear “Hey guys, Morgan’s Maintenance” and say, “This guy again”
That’s what my wife says when she hears, “It’s me, Mikey Pipes” in his intro.
Omg. I’m an electrician with sore knees. I never thought of using the crate as a seat. A 5 gallon bucket is too tall. I think the crate is at the right height. Thanks for the idea!
You are welcome. Yeah it is a good height for me when installing receptacles.
I have a really small/short chair with rollers if I’m doing a bunch that My friend got out of a dentist office for me. I use the crate for the quick ones.
Thank You for watching and the comment!
Thanks and you can stack multiple crates on each other, and hang on the wall, and do mod to add feet to bottom of knee pad plastic holder and add to top of crate for garage seat, also put crate on the roller caster wheels base and it works really good seat like that! Thanks for tips!!🎉
You are welcome. The crates, though expensive.. have been super handy 👍
I decided to watch this video to answer the question : “How can someone possibly talk about a crate divider for nine and a half minutes?” I ended up going to Home Depot and buying my first (definitely overpriced) Packout crate (dividers I have to order from Grainger). Excellent job and I learned new things about Packout! And I am now a subscriber. Thank you!
Appreciate that. I will warn you, I am a rambler sometimes 😂.
I always try to put chapters in my videos so people can skip around. It’s always easier for me to put too much and have it be video, then try to answer questions with words in the comments.
Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment. I have 3 over priced crates, but they work great for me 👍
@MORGANSMaintenance I appreciate the reply. My dad is a carpenter so I know things but am not a professional. The packout stuff interests me though to organize the tools I do have and seem to be great gift ideas for my dad.
@BFGoodwrench3 the Packout at the time was the best (in my opinion) locking and unlocking.
There have been many brands since I started buying them that have come out with options that might be as good/or possibly even better. I’m heavily invested in them now though that I’m not changing.
Welcome to the addiction ~ I actually really need this to help support the pressure I apply to mine . Home Depot here I come.
You can attach a full size organizer to the back of crate and use organizer handle. The crate essentially will hang off of the crate
Thanks, I will have to try that out 👍
I could 3D print a cleet receiver to attach to the front of it so it would engage all four cleets on the 1/2 size organizer
I haven’t had a problem with mine coming off yet without it, but I think it would be a good idea for them to have added it.
Ive thought about getting a 3D printer a time or two. I’ve been wanting some bins for a slim Packout that take the Bit holders from the Dewalt cases.
I’m so happy to hear that you use the crate as a seat as well lol! That divider is a game changer.. I use my crates to organize so many things like caulking and paint supplies! Packout really changed my efficiency at my work sites! Great video as always and have a great weekend. I forgot to mention in the previous video but I’m happy to hear your cat is doing better and a speedy recovery.
It’s a really good height for a seat….and I must confess… a step stool in a pinch 😂. Just stand close to the edges.
I’m thinking of putting some magnet bars on one and using for either tools or drywall knives. May make a drywall supply crate.
Organization just makes for a better day. The job is sometimes hard in itself, not being able to find stuff only makes it harder.
Thanks from my cat! She has been doing well so far.
Dude!!! MUCH appreciated brother 🙏🏻 love it, but don’t you dare put the cup in there 🤣 😂 that is definitely a game changer I’ll need that ASAP I’ll have something to show ya how I’ll use it maybe a little different. Funny man it’s like we are on the same wave length with this tool stuff 🤘🏻
No problem! I didn’t actually get a tumbler yet but am picking one up my next trip to the store. I just though it was funny you saying people will be like “They don’t fit in the trays”
@@MORGANSMaintenance 😂 damn you had me!!
WOw. I made the plywood divider but I see why the plastic divider is way better. thanks!
You’re welcome. I was the same way. I could cut a piece of scrap to fit but I had always wanted a better way to put my single organizers on.
Thanks for watching and your comment!
Really good review and logical reasons for getting the Packout crate. I have a bunch of the Packout modular pieces and really like them, but I always figured the Packout crate was basically an expensive milk crate, which I already have a bunch of. Your review is making me reconsider and I will probably get one of these (thoughmy wife isn't going to be happy with another Packout item)!
Thanks so much.
Mine is the same 😂. Every time I mention one she says, “You can’t need more of that”
When I bought mine they were $39… I think they have since went up to $49. I do a lot of swapping for different jobs everyday in/out of my truck so I like the ability to just throw odd things in and not have to have it perfectly fit inside a case. If you didn’t have other packout then they would be just a crate… but being able to snap them in to your other stuff is the benefit.
My Truck Loadout Part 2 kinda shows how I use one in my truck all the time, and my 2nd one stays in the truck as my job site seat/ parts for the job carrier

Perfect!
Thanks. 👍
That's great stuff. You just sold a bazillion of those. Hope they send you some more packout stickers.
It would be nice… but I won’t count on it 😂
Very good video thanks
Thanks for watching 👍
Good info ! Do want !
Definitely going to be helpful for me.
@@MORGANSMaintenance I got to get some of the Packout compatible coffee mugs !
@@chrisfyfe9212 yeah I’m going to get me the 20 oz I think. I really only use those insulated cups for coffee, the bigger one is a bit big for that… even as much as I drink.
I just bought this, and use it very similarly to you BUT I just discovered the packout cabinet and I think this solves all the issue for me. I use the roller dolly, with the cabinet, then I throw my m18 vac and milwaukee tool bag on top then I can open the garage of the cabinet without removing anything and grab product
I also still get to use the cabinet as a crate cuz it has cleats on it back
@@nathanriddle4190 I’ve looked at those and have thought about getting one. I don’t use a “stack” that often to work out of but I can see where it would be useful. Kinda like the drawers.. if I ran a stack all the time cabinets and drawers would be the way to go.
Appreciate you sharing your thoughts👍
@MORGAN'S Maintenance I got the drawers but it's full of my blades and bits and stays in the truck, but it makes it nice to gather what I need and throw it in the cabinet along with the proper tools for the job, then on the wheels then the tool bag and vac and that gets me dialed in for most jobs, a ton less trips to the truck
@@nathanriddle4190 less trips to the truck is always a win 👍
It really does bother me when some stores have a bigger assortment of Milwaukee Packout
Me too. My Home Depot is not great for tools period. I end up having to ship most things to the store. When I travel I go in other Home Depot’s and am blown away at how much better some of them are.
You said you can’t use the double organise if things are sticking out the crate, but you could instead connect the crate on top of your organiser
Yeah you can snap things on the bottom with/without the divider… I just meant with the divider.
Can't you put the larger organizer under the crate and lock it in?
You can.. the divider just gives you more options on the top of the crate using the half organizers.
More if you are using crates in a stack with stuff on the top and bottom.
You can often times make it work by organizing things in a different way without the divider, it just gives you more options… and divides the crate.
Awesome addition. Question, will the crate and the divider hold two of the smaller organizers side-by-side?
I believe so, I actually haven’t done it for some reason 🤷♂️. I would think they would even fit on better because it would keep them from being able to slide in towards the middle like I showed.
Unfortunately I can’t check it at the moment. I’m out of town… hopefully someone else can answer sooner, but if not I can check when I get back home…
@@MORGANSMaintenance It would make or break the deal for me. I only use the half sized organizers because it's a better system in my pickup tool box.
@@mozzberg590 I’m the same way, the half ones work best for me too. They fit better and they typically hold enough of whatever I’m wanting to organize without mixing two things that aren’t alike.
Keeps me from carrying in things I don’t need adding weight.
I won’t be home for a few days but I screenshot your question to remind me. If you don’t hear back message me again.
Hopefully someone else will read it sooner though and give you an answer, sorry I can’t help you at the moment.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Thanks, no rush. I'm just looking for another reason to buy more PACKOUT accessories that don't fit in my truck.
Put the organizers on the bottom...
That works great and I do that sometimes 👍
The divider makes it nice though if I only want to carry one single organizer (if it’s on the bottom it’s would be wonky when you set it down. You can also access the organizer and crate at the same time.
You don’t have to have the divider, it just gives you another option in locking stuff on the crate. Mostly it’s better than just making your own because it gives you the lock in ability.
3:48 Why don't you just stack the crate on-top of the double organiser? then you can over fill the crate as much as you want, and your organiser is still clipped to the crate
That is an option you can do. There are multiple ways to stack stuff with your crate.
The point I'm making is that the divider just gives you more options for people putting crates in the middle of their stacks. Stuff on top or on bottom when situations come up. If you 100% of the time carry one crate and one double organizer, you can do that. If that's the case, you would not need a divier.
Milwaukee thinks of everything but almost always leave something out to make it perfect
There are some that say they think of everything and hold back part of it to make you buy it later 😂😂.
I am generally pretty happy with most Milwaukee Tool purchases. 👍
@@MORGANSMaintenance I agree
A packout box that uses crates as bins incoming
I’ve seen people do some cool stuff with 3D primers and crates for material storage.
trying to picture this
I know this may sound stupid but and you provide the link for the knee pad please!
It is a Husky kneeling pad from Home Depot.

Hope it helps 👍
You never said anything about the bottom of the crate.. it works just like the top
Yeah you can lock in anything on the bottom because it has all the connection points.
Not being limited to just putting your small organizers on the bottom is a nice feature though.. that and in order to stack your small ones on the bottom you would have to have at least 2 to level it out. Sometimes you may only need to take 1.
The divider just gives you more options when you may need to make a certain stack…. You can get by without it.
👍
👍👍
If only that divider held 6 of my batteries....
You could probably mount some of those 3D printed holders to it somehow…. Or at least mount them on something and sandwich that on each side.
Divider cost almost as much as the crate lol
It used to... now the Crate is even more Expensive😂😂. I think I paid $35 for my first Crate, then they have been up to $49... Crazy
I just bought two of them , and it’s all your fault ( just kidding ) !
That’s how many I picked up too. I have 3 crates, I think they are really useful, but they have went up on price since I bought them though. (The crates, not the dividers)
@@MORGANSMaintenance ATM , I only have two crates , these things make the crates much more worthwhile !
@@chrisfyfe1476 agree 100%
@@MORGANSMaintenance I had to retrofit an armature to my Stilletto hammer , so my Holstery Magmaster will hold it ! My , ball peins and Crosspein , and Carpenter’s Hatchet stick on very solidly ! All your fault ! LOL !
@@chrisfyfe9212 😂😂 my wife always says “People’s wives hate me”
ONLY 18 DOLLARS FOR THAT PIECE OF PLASTIC???
It's the cheapest Milwaukee plastic the sell 😂
I would say you could do plywood for cheaper if you only needed a divider, but I'm not sure you could get a small piece of plywood for $18
Good lord.. a 9min video on this.. you do know your slim half organizers clip onto the bottom of the crate eh? Get to job, unclip 1 or 2 of them. Sigh... Or leave them connected and just flip the crate up.
You can do all of what you said…. But someone may want to divide their crate. If they do, All I was trying to show is that this divider allows you to do more with your crate than a piece of plywood
If you want to do what you said, use a piece of plywood… if you want to be able to clip stuff on top, you may want this one.
Thanks for the suggestions though, it may help someone who reads the comments. 👍
It a shame saying $18 for a piece of plastic. Is cheap. It really should not be more than $5 bucks. Maybe it just me. But seems over priced. Im sure someone going to make this and sell it themselves and still make a great profit for less!
It just depends on what your time is worth. I could make something out of plywood, but it will cost me the plywood and my time to cut to fit… (which it’s not straight and a tapered thickness) …then it still wouldn’t latch in the single organizers.
It shouldn’t cost that, but Milwaukee has to make their cut, then the truck driver, then Home Depot. $18 stinks, but my point was that it’s cheaper than me making something that works the same.
It's a freaking plastic crate, and you people pay out the ass for it. Has the world gone insane??????????????????
Buy itself it’s just a crate. But when you make stacks of things and roll them through schools, malls, hallways full of people.. it’s nice to know it’s not falling off.
With other Packout containers it’s part of a system that allows you to stay organized and interlocks together.
You are right, if you only need a crate it’s not worth it. If you need a crate to work in your system , it may still not be worth it…but it’s what you need. Packout, Tough System, Ridgid… whatever the system is.
With all that being said… I agree with you that it is ALL over priced 👍
@@MORGANSMaintenance it's more than a crate for sure.
@@LemonySnicket-EUC 👍
