Rubbermaid Garage Tool Tower Rack Easy to Assemble Wheeled Organizes up to 40 Long-Handled Tools/Rakes/ Brooms/Shovles in Home/House/Outdoor/Shed Black

What It Is

The Rubbermaid Garage Tool Tower Rack is a wheeled, freestanding storage organizer designed to hold up to 40 long-handled tools like rakes, brooms, shovels, and string trimmers. It’s not a lawn mower part itself, but a garage/shed accessory for organizing tools used with mowers and outdoor equipment.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Not machine-specific: This rack works with any tool that has a handle up to roughly 1.5 inches in diameter (standard rake/broom handles).
• Space requirement: Measures 16.5” D x 16.5” W x 68.5” H. Needs a flat floor area of about 1.5 sq ft and at least 70” of vertical clearance.
• Tool count: Holds up to 40 tools, but realistically fits 20–25 larger items like shovels and rakes due to handle width.
• Wheels: Four swivel casters (two locking) roll over concrete, garage floors, or smooth pavement—not for rough grass or gravel.
• Assembly: Requires a Phillips screwdriver only; no drilling or wall mounting needed. Check that your tools’ handles are straight (bent or very long handles may stick out).

Key Things to Know

• Assembly time: 15–30 minutes with clear instructions. No special skills required.
• Stability: Fully loaded, it’s stable on level ground, but lighter tools can tip if the rack is bumped. Lock the front casters for extra security.
• Capacity vs. reality: The “40 tools” claim includes small items (e.g., trowels, pruners) in the top bin. For large shovels/rakes, plan for 20–25.
• Durability: Heavy-duty plastic holds up well in garages or sheds; UV-resistant but may fade in direct sun over years.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if you have a cluttered garage or shed with multiple long-handled tools and want a simple, no-drill storage solution that rolls out of the way. It’s ideal for homeowners with 10–25 rakes, brooms, shovels, or trimmers who don’t need wall-mounting. Skip it if you have oversized tools (e.g., extra-long snow shovels) or need to store heavy power equipment.
