Those help if you have a place to park it. You might find it better than the system you have now... but again it hinges on your ability to organize the stuff into the drawers. Out of sight for some doesn't help, though it might serve to impress those you live with when you hide your clutter in a bright red box. If one is prone to just throwing it in 'fifo', with no organization then it's as bad as a portable tool-box. Hanging tools on a wall can work if you're able.
My biggest challenge is trying to 'store' parts while the car is disassembled... hoods, doors, bumpers... rubbers, glass, seats... and don't even get me started about all the nuts and bolts...
It's one thing to hang tools, leave tools on a series of shelves or in a box, or any combination of any of it... but when the car parts, dirty rags, empty beer cans, and your tools start cluttering up the same space...
My girlfriend keeps offering to clean up the garage... I say, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it..." while I silently finish my sentence with "eventually".
