DEE ZEE Poly Triangle Trailer Tongue Box 36 x 18.75 x 18 in — 25 lb, UV‑Stable Double‑Wall Lid

DEE ZEE DZ91717P is a triangular, lightweight poly trailer tongue box designed to secure and organize gear on the front of trailers while resisting warping and corrosion.

This molded plastic tool box fits neatly on most trailer tongues and provides a weather-resistant storage solution without the weight or rust concerns of steel. Built from a rigid polymer with a double-wall lid and a classic brite-tread pattern, the DZ91717P is shaped for the triangular space forward of couplers and jacks. The steel hasp latch lets you add a padlock for extra security (padlock not included), and the unit ships without mounting hardware so you can choose the best fasteners for your tongue type.

How does this box protect tools and supplies on the road?

The poly construction keeps contents dry and prevents corrosion that can occur with metal boxes. The double-wall lid adds strength to resist dents and flexing during travel, while the brite-tread textured lid reduces slips when accessing items.

• Rigid plastic frame resists warping and moisture intrusion
• Double-wall lid adds structural support and impact resistance
• Steel hasp latch accepts a padlock for added security
• Sealed design minimizes dust and water entry while driving

Will it fit my trailer tongue and how is it mounted?

The triangle profile is made to match the common taper of trailer tongues, providing a compact fit ahead of the coupler. The DZ91717P is a universal-style box that requires you to provide mounting hardware so you can secure it to your particular tongue type and thickness.

• 36 x 18.75 x 18 inches triangular footprint for most tongue shapes
• Lightweight 25 lb body for easier installation and less tongue weight
• Mounting hardware not included — choose bolts or U-bolts for your tongue
• Flat bottom and tapered sides for a stable, low-profile fit

How durable is the DZ91717P in outdoor conditions?

The box uses a UV-stable, rigid plastic formula that stands up to sun exposure without rusting or flaking. The brite-tread pattern and reinforced lid deliver impact resistance and maintain shape through temperature changes, making it suitable for seasonal and year-round use.

• Polymer construction won’t corrode like steel in wet environments
• Rigid frame designed to resist warping from heat or cold
• Textured lid reduces surface wear and hides scuffs
• Steel hasp adds mechanical security where needed

How much gear can it hold and is it easy to access?

With a triangular internal volume sized for tongue storage, the box accommodates tools, straps, chocks, spare parts and other essentials without taking excessive bed or trailer space. The wide-lid opening and low front profile make loading and retrieving items straightforward.

• Internal capacity sized for hand tools, tie-downs, and safety items
• Low front edge and wide top for easy reachability
• 25 lb product weight keeps added tongue load minimal
• Classic lid pattern provides traction when standing or reaching

Who this is for: The DEE ZEE DZ91717P is aimed at trailer owners who want a practical, corrosion-free storage option for the tongue area—boat trailers, utility trailers, landscape trailers and small cargo trailers all benefit. If you prefer a lightweight unit that resists dents and rot, want to add your own mounting hardware, and plan to secure gear with a padlock, this triangular poly box is a reliable, low-maintenance choice.
