As a registered plugger, I disagree with the sentiment and this guy’s use of a five gallon bucket. I “needed” a shoulder supported tool belt and several bags for the tools I routinely use, and by that I mean the tool belt called to me.
You can buy a fancy Rubbermaid pail for $25, or a 5 gallon pail for $1.50. Or if you know someone who works at Subway, free. Empty pickle pails, they just smell for a while. A long while.
Often a smaller pail inside for smaller or more delicate ‘stuff’. If they don’t fit in all the pockets in your classic work/everyday jeans. Check where the white wear marks are over each pocket to get a clue as to what is most commonly stored there.

A good 5 gallon bucket has lots of uses, including turn it upside down for a quick side table outside.

Sometimes a Plugger toolbox is one five-gallon pail stuck inside another.

I use a 5 gallon bucket, but it has a liner with pockets to keep my hand tools seperate

But it’s probably orange and says Home Depot or white and says Ace Hardware on the sides.

My usual tool bag these days is a repurposed reusable grocery bag.

Yesterday I installed a new mailbox. I did the same thing. Thank you, Lowe’s for saving me a lot of money.
