In 2024, we saw tons of new products hit the market from the top tool manufacturers. These range from power tools to household and hardware, workwear, and beyond. When it comes to tool bags and storage, we highlighted some of our favorite items with the Pro Tool Innovation Awards in 2024. As we wrap up the year, I wanted to go over some real stand-out players in the storage and organization game!

Organizers – Milwaukee Packout Tilt Bin Organizer
Milwaukee’s new Tilt Bin Organizer is one of the most recent additions to the Packout lineup. It features an impact-resistant base, letting you remove it from the wall and place it on the ground (or stack it on your Packout build) without worrying about damaging the enclosure. You can store a variety of bits, fasteners, and other small items in the 10 removeable quick access bins. For users who constantly juggle between accessories, this design brings an added level of convenience and security.
The Tilt Bin Organizer took home a PTIA award in 2024, and you can find it on shelves starting in early 2025.

Bags – Flex Stack Pack 16-inch Soft Tote

With 44 pockets and slots, as well as a removable divider, you can store your power tools, hand tools, accessories, and more to fit your desired configuration. It’s also constructed from 1680D ballistic polyester material, making it extremely durable to stand up to tough jobsite conditions.

To help simplify wire pulls and easily monitor inventory, this box also includes an open-front design.
