How Can I Stop My Rolling Tool Box from Vacuum Sealing?
Asked by CuriousCrafter42
I've been using my Packout rolling tool box, and it's awesome overall. However, I've noticed that sometimes it vacuum seals, making it a struggle to open the lid. I have the original model without the low-profile handle, and I'm puzzled about what's causing this issue. Are there any tips or solutions that could help prevent this from happening?

One thing to consider is whether you're experiencing significant elevation changes when transporting it. If so, that could create a vacuum seal as the pressure inside drops. You might want to install a pressure relief valve to avoid drilling holes.
