Ute Tub Storage Boxes for Fast, Secure Access

Keep everyday tools and gear organised without giving up your whole tub. UniUte’s ute tub storage collection focuses on vehicle-specific swing-out tool boxes that mount beside the tub wall, giving you quick access to frequently used equipment while leaving the main cargo area available for larger loads.

These lockable storage boxes suit work utes, touring builds and everyday dual-cabs. Fitment, materials and weather resistance vary by model, so check the individual product page for the exact specifications for your vehicle.

Why Choose a Swing-Out Ute Storage Box?

  • Quick access to tools, straps and smaller gear
  • Helps keep the main tub floor available for larger cargo
  • Lockable storage for frequently used equipment
  • Vehicle-specific designs for a neater fit
  • Useful for tradies, touring setups and everyday organisation

Vehicle-Specific Ute Tool Boxes

Current fitments include popular Australian utes such as Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, Isuzu D-Max, Mitsubishi Triton, Nissan Navara, Kia Tasman, BYD Shark 6 and Ford F-150. Because tub dimensions and mounting points differ between vehicles, choose the product made for your exact model and year.

Build a Complete Tub Storage Setup

If you need easier access to heavier or bulkier cargo, pair side storage with a ute sliding tray. For enclosed cargo protection, compare the ute canopy range. Not sure which layout suits your work or touring setup? Read our ute tub storage ideas guide.

UniUte ships Australia-wide, with product advice and fitting support available from our Moorabbin, Victoria location where applicable.
