I bought my ToolVault Elite 72" with Hutch just over two years ago now ( May 6th, 2019) and I'm still amazed at how great a toolbox it is. It still wows me every morning when I get to work. Drawers still slide smooth, Hutch door still rolls up nicely. I still have plenty of space left to fill and at some point look forward to adding a side locker. I get compliments on it all the time. I search for a long time for a tool storage option that wasn't cheaply made and over priced or something affordable and still made like crap. I really didn't want to be in debt to one of the tool truck brands for the rest of my career so I could have the tool box I wanted. So I searched and searched and looked at reviews for everything I found, and the ToolVault from Strictlytoolboxes.com was the clear winner. Their customer service is hands down awesome. Will always recommend Strictly tool boxes to anybody looking for a box.

A friend of mine told me about this website a few months ago cause I was looking to buy a bigger tool box from one of the tool trucks but I couldn't see spending 10 grand and up on a tool box, so I researched these boxes, read reviews and talked to customer service before buying one, and I glad I didn't wait to long cause this is well worth the money, they have plenty of room and I believe they are built better than the high dollar tool truck boxes. So if your wonder about buying one just buy it already you'll be happy you did.

I purchased this tool box in orange back in June 2019. Since its arrival in a very well packed cargo crate the box has been the envy of the shop. A couple of the other techs plan on purchasing new toolboxes because of how great the quality and price are on these. Both the Mac and Snap on guy are actually impressed as well.

Oh my goodness, I was full in a matco 4’s and an hf side locker. Got this toolbox and hutch with the side locker for the 84”. It’s amazing now I feel like I have no tools. Ordering was easy. Delivery was mostly easy. Lower box was slightly damaged but they will take care of you. Set up is a little difficult even for two journeyman so make sure you have help and follow directions.

I am a ASE Master Tech and have been working in the automotive repair business for over 25 years. I was looking for a replacement for my over stuffed Craftsmen tool box. I found this toolbox co. while surfing the web. I am glad I did. At first I was shy and worried about ordering a tool box without seeing it. The price was to good to be true too. When comparing it to Snap on and Matco. The price is a lot less then theirs but the quality is the same. This is by far the best investment I have made in my career.

First of all the toolbox is way more than I expected for the price. I was worried because I didn't get to see the tool box in person before spending the money. I was also concerned about shipment and the damage that might occur with a toolbox this size but the crates were very well packaged. The buying process was really easy and only takes a couple of minutes. Everyone is my shop was impressed with the quality for the price. Great buy!

This is by far the best value in the toolbox market! I haven't been in this tool box very long yet, and I don't always open the right drawer for the tools I'm looking for. Then again, sometimes I just open and close drawers in astonishment of how much room there is! Everyone that comes in the shop is amazed with it also.

I have had my tool box a few months now. I ordered the tool box and had it within two days. That’s very fast. The toolbox was in a heavily built crate. Taking the crate apart was easy. Setting this tool box up didn’t take very long at all. The only thing that wasn’t done for you was there needed to be holes drilled into the top to mount the hutch to it. That was a very simple task as they were marked exactly where they needed to be drilled. This box is simply the best box for the money. I have been researching a lot of different tool boxes, but this one was the best for the size, value, and features. I am a full time diesel technician. Everyone in the shop couldn’t believe how nice and big my toolbox was. Then, they heard the price I paid for it and how fast I had gotten it. A few of the people want to buy one of these boxes for their next box. I couldn’t even get a box of the tool truck that fast and for sure not even close for the price for the size of the box. This box is built very heavily. The hutch is one of the best features with the shelf. I have put all the cases on the shelf with tools in them. Also, all the books I have are on the shelf. The shelf doesn’t even bow downward. I’m very impressed. The hutch is was a very nice touch. I thought about just buying the box without the hutch, but I’m so glad I spent the little bit of extra money to get it. That has left a lot more space inside the toolbox. I believe the drawer rating completely. It has better drawer ratings then the more expensive boxes. The drawer detents are a little hard at first but with a little time they soften up. The tool box comes with softer detents. I would recommend this tool box to anyone. I would definitely by another one in the future if I needed it. I have more room with this box than I need but, I figured I could grow into it. Strictly toolboxes are very professional along with Montezuma tool box which thought of a very easy set up. The tool box rolls across the shop very easily. The spring loaded casters make it very nice for uneven spots in the floor. The casters also have locks to keep the box stationery. This box sure makes our shop look good. It is the biggest box in the shop that’s for sure.

I have owned Craftsman tool boxes all my life, not anymore. The money I spent over the years was a lot more than the cost of this one. When I needed to purchase a new toolbox I went online and started looking for a tool box that would hold all my tools and last till retirement. This tool box will go the distance. It has a lot of metal in it and ball bearing drawers. The deep drawers are great for the thicker tools (air and battery tools, large wrenches, 3/4"drive, and batteries). The 2 1/4" drawers are the right depth for the smaller wrenches, sockets, pliers, screwdrivers, and other small diameter items. If you are undecided about the 24" versus 30" Montezuma, go 30. You will not believe how much difference 6" makes; it is like having an extra tool box as-far-as square inches are concerned. The hutch is money well spent for me. In my line of work documentation is produced as you reassemble motors. The top of the tool box is the right height to write. With the hutch, papers are protected and manuals are kept close at hand. Again the useable space in the hutch is massive. I love it. I have had several coworkers look over the tool box, and am impressed with the quality. The more I use this toolbox the more I like it. I have to say it did take me awhile to relearn the location of my tools, but that's true with any tool box. I have to say this is the least expensive toolbox, as-far-as the quality is concerned! Par none!

By far the best money ever spent for a toolbox. Every person that has walked through shop has stopped to inspect this tool box. The techs cannot believe the value compared to the tool trucks, nor could they believe how heavy this thing is built. It took several men to pick the hutch up and onto the tool box. I am beyond satisfied. Will recommend this to anyone in the market for a large well crafted tool box.

I needed a new tool box but didn't want to pay the high price of the local tool distributors. So, I did an internet search and found the Montezuma. I was skeptical of the low price but after ready through reviews and forums, I decided to purchase this toolbox. The toolbox was on back order so it took a couple of months to get it. It was well worth the wait. I am very impressed with the customer service. They told me exactly when it would arrive and kept me informed. The tool box arrived in a new wooden crate that was well put together. I didn't realize how massive it was until I opened the crate. The toolbox is huge and drawers are very deep. It arrived scratch free, had all the parts and everything worked. As big as the tool box is, it rolls very easy. The four swivel casters and two fixed center casters make it a breeze to move. I strongly recommend anyone looking for a nice but inexpensive tool box to buy a Montezuma.
Residential Addresses: All residential deliveries will require a delivery appointment.
Commercial Addresses: A delivery appointment is not required, but is highly recommended to ensure a proper inspection by responsible personnel.
*If you do not schedule a delivery appointment, your freight carrier will arrive without notice with your toolbox, and expect that you will be present for inspection.
This step is usually performed directly after your shipping notification is received.
2. PREPARE YOUR RECEIVING AREA
To make the inspection process go as smoothly as possible, please have the tools listed below available as soon as the carrier reaches the delivery point:
LARGE FLAT-HEAD SCREWDRIVER, PRY BAR or CLAW HAMMER
BOX CUTTER
WORK GLOVES
CAMERA or SMARTPHONE CAMERA
ASSISTANT (RECOMMENDED)
CELL PHONE**
Freight carrier drivers typically have 7 – 15 minutes to make a delivery; freight drivers are under no obligation to offer assistance.
3. INSPECT THE OUTER PACKAGING
Use your CAMERA to photograph any damage, and take notes. Examples of damage include, but are not limited to:
BOX CAVING IN, BENT TRIM
HOLES OR TEARS IN CARDBOARD
HOLES CREATED BY A FORKLIFT
ANY EXPOSED METAL
DAMAGE TO BASE
“NO-STACK” CONE ON CARDBOARD PACKAGING IS DESTROYED OR MISSING
In most cases, the outer packaging may display minor damage from general shipping conditions. Any marks or damage on the packaging you see, no matter how trivial, is enough to warrant a complete inspection of your tool box.
4. REMOVE STRAPS AND ACCESSORY
Cut the straps with the BOX CUTTER; Avoid cutting the straps that enclose the accessory carton
Have an ASSISTANT or use a forklift help you lift the hutch or accessory off the crate, then carefully place it aside
If you see any damage at this point,
STOP
NOTE THE DAMAGE ON THE BILL OF LADING and CONTINUE YOUR INSPECTION
***If possible, write on the bill of lading yourself. If the driver insists on being the one to write on the bill of lading, initial their notes showing that you agree with them. If you do not agree with the driver’s notes, DO NOT sign the bill of lading.***
5. UNFASTEN CRATE
Wearing your WORK GLOVES, start with the top panel of the crate
Bend the metal tabs upward in the direction of the slot, straighten the tabs with PLYERS if needed
Remove the top portion of the crate
6. REMOVE PACKAGING
Continue bending the metal tabs, and remove each panel in sequence until the inner packaging is exposed
Lift the cardboard box off, and remove remaining inner packaging and plastic liner
Preserve all packaging and set aside
7. INSPECT TOOLBOX
Inspect your toolbox on each side thoroughly for any dents or scratches
Inspect the powder coat and frame to detect scratches or dents that are less visible
Take clear photos and notes of all damage
8. INSPECT ACCESSORIES
After the roller cabinet has been found to be in perfect condition per the inspection, you must also inspect the accessories before you sign.
Cut any straps, remove, and set aside packaging.
Inspect, note and photograph any damage
If you see any damage at this point,
STOP
CALL US IMMEDIATELY AT: 888.289.1952
DO NOT SIGN FOR THE DELIVERY
UNTIL WE WALK YOU THROUGH HOW TO REFUSE THE DAMAGED ITEM(S)
**this is necessary for your protection in the event of freight damage
9. SIGN FOR YOUR SHIPMENT*
You may sign the bill of lading once the shipment you are accepting has been inspected and declared perfect condition by your own best judgement.
When you sign the bill of lading, you are signing an agreement with the freight company that states that you or an authorized representative has thoroughly inspected the shipment.
Once signed, you agree that you have received the shipment without damage. This agreement also waives any rights to file a freight claim.
*If you have refused the delivery due to damage, YOU MUST call StrictlyToolBoxes.com immediately at 888.289.1952

All Tool Vault® toolboxes have a Limited 5-Year Warranty to the original user against defects in workmanship and material under normal use. This Limited 5-Year Warranty does not apply to products that have been misused, abused, damaged by accident or otherwise, subjected to abnormal use, used in any type of over the road use, or modified by anyone other than Strictly Tool Boxes.

Tool Vault®
With 20 years experience in the professional automotive tool and equipment industry, we have seen many companies come and go. It is our commitment to providing the highest quality products and outstanding customer service that ensures our company stands out from the rest.
Strictly Tool Boxes chooses to work with only a few tool box manufacturers because they have proven their ability to deliver a high quality product at a fair price. We have removed many vendors from our site for various reasons. The primary reason we stopped working with certain manufacturers was low product quality.
We are certain many of you have noticed the trend for tool box manufacturers to make the products with thinner steel every year. For certain light duty home applications, these lower end products may work fine. However, for the automotive professional or a serious do-it-yourselfer, we found that these products cannot hold up.
If you have questions regarding products, or if you do not see the brand you have questions about on our site, give us a call at 888.289.1952. Because of our vast experience in the professional automotive tool and equipment business, we have seen and worked with most brands currently on the market. We will be happy to help in whatever way we can.
Delivery Time
Most orders will leave the warehouse in 1 – 3 business days. Your new toolbox will deliver by freight truck and the average transit times vary by location from 2 – 6 business days.
Please note that all residential deliveries will require a delivery appointment.
For standard delivery times in your local area, please contact Strictly Tool Boxes at 888.289.1952.
Free Freight
Free shipping applies only to our standard shipping services. Standard shipping does not include lift gate fees that can be associated with shipping larger items by freight truck.
Free freight promotions apply to the contiguous* US only.
Do I need Lift Gate Delivery?
Lift gate delivery will be needed if you do not have access to a loading dock or fork lift. If lift gate service is added the freight company will deliver your order with a special trailer that has a hydraulic lift to safely lower your new toolbox from the back of the semi-trailer to ground level.
