I have an opportunity to get 6 hard bodied oval buckets (some with pockets and handles some without) and various other tools for free. The catch is that its a 3 hour drive to pick them up.
Do they make good tool totes? Are they tough?
The only reason I ask is because I have never seen one being used on the ground. When I did underground I only ever saw them with the line crews, me being on the pole crew prevented me from ever touching anything other than 10' post hole diggers and chain saws...
My current tool storage and transportation leaves something to be desired as I have been dragging the same 3 AWP duffle bags around for the last three years.
Should I make the drive?
