Default tool boxes

best/cheapest places to buy?

I use my truck for work, so my entire back seat is various tools, materials and tool buckets. I always wanted to get a tool box for the back, but I cant stand when they go all the way down the bed so you cannot fit materials underneath. I always and sliding wood and drywall up to the top of the bed and it still hangs off the back so I cannot afford to lose that space. ive seen a few "narrow" or "shallow" boxes, just wondering ya'lls opinions, etc etc, thanks ahead of time

The boxes at Tractor Supply are good quality for not a lot of money. Pretty good assortment of varying depths as well. I have a deep one that leaves about 8" underneath which is about perfect for me. Good place to store my Hi-Lift jack and a couple other items under there...

Hard to be Weatherguard. They're built strong and hold up well. Not cheap though.
