Our 1200mm toolboxes are 1000 to 1220mm long. That makes them the compact choice: they fit across most ute tubs between the rails, sit on one side of a tray beside other gear, or mount on a trailer or caravan drawbar. On 30 Oct 2026 we had 22 models, from $350.

Often, yes. Most ute tubs are about 1500mm or more between the sides at the top, so a 1200mm box sits across the tub rails with room to spare. Measure across the top of your tub and between the wheel arches before you order.
Yes. Several of these models are made for trailer and caravan drawbars. Check the length against the space between the coupling and the trailer body. Our drawbar toolbox guide explains the clearances.
If you want a box that spans a full ute tray behind the cab, look at 1700mm and 1800mm toolboxes instead.
