Nearly all of our techs have given up the hard case platt tool box for soft synthetic bags with wheels. Heavy loaded tool cases are health hazards especially if your work area is in the snow belt or in areas where snow and the winter weather causes poor movement. I think the key is in my opinion, every three months or so take the time to spend that hour or so to cleanup and organize the bag and car. There is no point in carrying around stuff if you cannot find it when needed or have to empty the whole case. A tech with a fair work load will eventually find his bag getting heavier as he uses tools from the car and just leave it in the bag.
Moving with a heavy bag and parts can be daunting and i hate that, especially when there is snow on the ground and you cannot wheel your bag.
