Does anyone know of any mnfg. that makes a utility box like the plano's that is 2-3" tall that has NO dividers in it. I'm looking for something that would hold 10-12 packs of soft plastics without having to roll them up and stuff then in between the dividers???

Just buy {Plano's and use a utility knofe and cut the solid dividers any way you want them. You can also use a pair of side-cutters to modify a boxes dividers.

Hope it helps,

I have been buying the Sterlite boxes from Walmart. 2 bucks a piece and most packages fit in them standing straight up. They fit great in my Skeeters compartments, and easy to arrange and organize.

Barlows had some. But I looked on there website and did not see them. They might just have some in stock in the store and don't have them listed.

I use a small zip up pouch that I got from Bass Magazine, You might want to look for a mens traveling shaving pouch though it would probably work well

I purchased a box at Walmart in the school supplies section. It is a little deeper than a 360 box but very close. Works great for plastics and misc. tackle.

+1 and +2, I have been buying the Sterlite boxes from Walmart. 2 bucks a piece and most packages fit in them standing straight up. They fit great in my Stratos's many compartments, and easy to arrange and organize.and use a utility knife and cut any of the solid dividers any way you want them. You can also use a pair of side-cutters to modify a boxes dividers. cheers

I like my Harbor Freight Tools tool bags. About 4"x5"x12" (another is 15") canvas bags. Hold plenty of worm bags but not so many you can't find them, plus easy to load/unload with tote handles. Get 2 or 3 of them and tags to show what is in them. I have one for worms and 1 for creatures & lizards---works for me and fairly cheap.

The plastic shoeboxes work great, but the Sterilite boxes I had all broke. Guess the heat got to them. Paid a few extra pennies for the Rubbermaid boxes and they haven't broke. Had them in the boat for a couple of years now. I wish they had a folding latch for the lid, but for less than $2 each they work great and hold about 20 bags of soft plastics without folding over. Chip clips under the lid work good for the faves used alot.

I bought a box from wal-mart to use my soft plastics in. But ended up just using the sack i carried the stuff home in. Seems to work great for now. and quick access.
