Milwaukee Tool has once again expanded its industry-leading storage system with the all-new PACKOUT Rack lineup, engineered to bring even greater efficiency and flexibility to professionals on the move. Whether you’re building out a mobile workshop in your van, organizing a CONEX box, or upgrading shop walls, the new PACKOUT™ Rack System delivers on the promise of unmatched modular versatility while reinforcing Milwaukee’s commitment to durable, pro-grade storage solutions.

This latest expansion was designed to meet the real-world challenges faced by tradespeople who rely on accessible, secure, and modular storage. Traditional stacking boxes work well for stationary storage but become a hassle when access means unstacking half your gear. Milwaukee’s new PACKOUT Rack answers that frustration with sliding drawers that allow fast access without the need to unstack anything, saving time and reducing jobsite headaches. With over 125 solutions in the PACKOUT ecosystem, this addition brings a new dimension to the modular system that already leads the category.

PACKOUT Rack
(48-21-8000)

At the heart of this release is the PACKOUT Rack, a steel-bodied unit designed for rugged jobsite and transit use. It features sliding drawers that securely lock in place and can carry up to 50 pounds each while in transit. The drawers adjust vertically so you can build a custom drawer layout based on your specific tool and supply needs. The top of the rack serves as a flat surface compatible with all PACKOUT™ components, and the entire unit can either be tethered to a wall or stacked up to three racks high to make the most of tight spaces. The rack system is designed to fit into fleet vehicles, shop setups, trailers, and even mobile containers like CONEX boxes.

The PACKOUT Rack Frame
(48-21-8010)

The PACKOUT Rack Frame serves as the mounting backbone for the system. With a weight capacity of 400 pounds, this frame is engineered to install into enclosed trailers, shop walls, and vans like the Ford Transit, Ram ProMaster, and Mercedes Sprinter. The frame includes telescoping legs that allow it to mount over wheel wells, freeing up room for Milwaukee Rolling Tool Boxes underneath. The frame supports vertical stacking of up to three racks and allows multiple frames to be mounted side by side, giving you the flexibility to create a fully modular wall system inside your vehicle or shop.

The PACKOUT Rack Drawers
(48-21-8040)

The PACKOUT Rack Drawers are sold separately and allow you to expand the rack configuration as your storage needs evolve. They are easy to install and adjust, staying locked in place during transport. The design ensures only one drawer opens at a time to reduce shifting and movement while driving, helping to keep tools organized and damage-free even in rougher travel conditions.

PACKOUT Rack Kit
(48-21-8070)

For those looking for a complete solution, the PACKOUT Rack Kit combines the core components into a turnkey system. It includes the frame, drawers, and mounting features, ready to be installed in a wide range of commercial and industrial vehicles, trailers, and jobsite setups. Compact Mounting Plates can be added to the sides of the rack for even more flexibility, allowing you to store additional PACKOUT items like organizers or accessories without taking up floor space.

What makes this release even more valuable for professionals and contractors is Milwaukee’s brand-new digital configurator tool, designed specifically to support the PACKOUT Rack launch. This online tool allows users to build their own customized PACKOUT Rack configurations, choosing from pre-built layouts or starting from scratch. You can visualize how your setup will fit into your van or trailer, adjust spacing, and export the design into a quote-ready order form for quick approvals. It’s the perfect resource for fleet managers or tradespeople looking to get the most value and organization out of their storage system.

The PACKOUT Rack System is more than just another toolbox, it’s a smart expansion of a trusted modular platform that’s built to adapt to your workflow. From jobsite to vehicle to shop, Milwaukee continues to lead the way in storage innovation. With the introduction of the PACKOUT Rack, they’ve solved one of the biggest pain points in mobile tool storage: how to keep everything connected and accessible without slowing you down. Now you can grab what you need, when you need it, without digging through a stack of boxes.

Milwaukee’s PACKOUT lineup now covers over 125 modular solutions and counting, and with the Rack System in play, your ability to build a complete storage ecosystem that works across all environments just got a whole lot easier.
