Milwaukee Tool quietly launched a new Packout tool box, 48-22-8423, which appears to be the regular XL tool box with a wide top handle.
Technically, this is not a new Packout tool box – it appears to be the same as the one that was exclusively included with the Milwaukee M18 Fuel cordless track saw kit.
Now, from what I can tell, you can buy it separately.

And this isn’t just one retailer having ordered a bunch of Packout tool boxes from the spart parts list; Milwaukee also has it listed on their website as coming soon.
Here’s a quick look comparing the new XL Packout tool box with top handle (left) with the original model.
Also from what I can tell, both will be available.
At Acme Tools, the version with the top handle is priced at $139, which is $10 more than the one without it.
I guess enough people said “I want to be able to buy that tool box separately,” and now you can.
ETA: Feb 2026
Launch Price: $139

If only it had a way to store/attach the track guides to the back or sides… but man that looks like a big container! Can’t wait for the cooler version! đŸ™‚

Shoot. I have modified the 10 in. compact one to fit my makita track saw..

I appreciate that this is available separately. It’s way too big to store just the track saw kit so I’ve been using it for all my daily cordless tools for a few years now.
A slightly modified “ammo can” packout can snugly fit the track saw, and I have storage on the underside of the lid for the dust bag & 2 blades. Also holds 2 track clamps and a 6.0 battery no problem. Half the footprint and around 1/3 the volume.

That’s elegant. I still have my systainer case for the Makita but feel that even that is grossly space inefficient.
