Wheely Cable Storage

[colleya]

I've had a search for this but not found anything too recent.

I lug the PA to and from gigs. This includes a couple of big boxes full of XLR/power cables as well as a full complement of extension leads.

I've seen a few toolbox on wheels type contraptions but would need something with a bigger capacity (about 60L) and without all the fiddly drawers etc.

Essentially I'm after two/three stackable storage boxes that form part of a trolley. A bit like this but probably bigger.

 

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Cheers!

If you just need one big case rather than a few stackable ones then Peli do some massive cases with trolley handles and wheels, you'll pay for them as they're not at all cheap. Should last you a lifetime of gigging though and will hold value, used one here:

Cheaper one, dunno how many gigs you'd get out of it though:

A lot of those DIY store toolbox type things are, in my experience, pretty flimsy, particularly where the moving parts are concerned. 

If you can live with one big box, but the Pelican stuff is too pricey, there's inexpensive alternatives that are nearly as good as the Peli stuff. 

I've been touring with one of these as my tech workbox for the last three years or so. It's rock solid. The advantage with Trifibre over the other similar alternatives is that they sell spare parts too, so if you do ever damage a latch/handle/wheel etc you can fix the case up.

These are very strong and durable and you can add more if you need more capacity.  Mine has withstood years of abuse on building sites and has regularly been used as a stool without breaking.
