Best Professional: Veto Pro Pac TECH-LC Tool Bag

It's the perfect choice not only for plumbers, but also for electricians, HVAC technicians, or anyone else who needs to tote a large collection of tools to multiple work locations each day.
This tool bag is made from 100% denier nylon, which has a thicker weight and a more substantial weave. It has a total of 53 pockets, some with ample room for bulkier tools, and some perfectly sized for smaller items such as drill bits and extensions. With numerous compartments (some are even zippered), you can easily find what you're looking for so you won't waste time fumbling in your toolkit. Along with a handle, it has a shoulder strap for easier transport.

To organize your tools there are two main compartments: one compartment for smaller tools and a larger compression pocket that is able to fit bulkier tools like a cordless drill.
