Quick answer
For a cordless kit, a stackable box like the DeWalt TSTAK holds tools, and the 44-drawer cabinets hold screws and bits, not battery packs. The Battery Daddy, which tops Amazon's tool storage list, holds household batteries such as AA and AAA, not cordless tool packs. Check a pack's dimensions before you buy anything for it.

What the manufacturers' pages say
We read each manufacturer's page on 2026-10-06. Where a page gives no figure, we leave it out.
| Item | Size per the manufacturer | Capacity and notes |
|---|---|---|
| DeWalt TSTAK DWST17806 | 17.3 in long, 11.9 in wide (the page's height figure repeats 17.3 in, so check it) | Plastic, 66 lb weight capacity, 6.85 lb, not lockable |
| Craftsman CMST16901 | 15.83 x 8.15 x 7.14 in | Plastic, 16 lb capacity, 2.35 lb, two top organizers and a removable tray; padlock-ready with the padlock sold separately |
| Keter Stack & Roll (black, 259676) | 20.66 D x 27.32 H x 16.18 W in (the page doesn't say if this is the full stack) | Three pieces (cart, toolbox, small-parts organizer), resin and metal, 7 in wheels, 19.62 lb, lockable |
| Akro-Mils 10144 | 20 x 6-3/8 x 15-13/16 in | 44 drawers; large drawer 6 x 4-9/16 x 2-3/16 in, small drawer 6 x 2-7/32 x 1-9/16 in; wall mountable |
| IRIS USA 44-drawer | 7.00 x 19.50 x 15.50 in (axes unlabeled) | 44 drawers; large drawer 6 x 4 x 2 in, small drawer 6 x 1.75 x 1.5 in; wall-mount holes |
The Keter page we read is the black Stack & Roll tool storage system. The Amazon listing we checked is marketed as an outdoor gear organizer in a different colour, so confirm the model you are ordering matches the one you read about.
What each is good for
- TSTAK: a stackable box for hand tools and small power tools. DeWalt's page doesn't give a volume, so compare dimensions with what you plan to put in it.
- Craftsman 16 in: a small hand-tool box. Its 16 lb capacity is the lowest here, so it isn't for heavy tools.
- Keter Stack & Roll: the rolling option, for moving tools around a garage.
- 44-drawer cabinets: screws, bits and small parts. The drawers are about 6 in by 4.5 in or smaller, so a tool battery pack won't fit unless you measure it first.
The Battery Daddy
The Battery Daddy is made for household batteries. The maker says it holds up to 180 batteries, in AA, AAA, 9V, C, D and coin or flat sizes, and it includes a tester. The sizes it lists don't include cordless tool packs. We found no storage guidance for tool packs on the pages we read, so for pack storage follow the tool maker's manual.

The Akro-Mils listing's title and overview give different dimensions (20 x 6 x 16 in against 15.99 x 19.99 x 6.99 in), so go by Akro-Mils's page. The Craftsman listing says "lockable", but Craftsman's page means padlock-ready.
