Storage chest as they are sometimes called can make for a great problem solver for a deck, patio area or by the pool.  These chest can come in many sizes to fit what you need to store when not in use.

The smaller storage containers also double as a bench.  If you are looking also for extra seating, does it come with a cushion or can you get one with the chest?  They can have two drawers under the seat or the top of the seat will lift up for storage.

They will be made of resin or wood material. The wooden chest will need yearly work to keep the finish.  The resin will last for several years in the sun and elements.  These will not be water tight or water proof if out in the weather.  Look for a cover to keep elements out.

Larger chest will be able to hold more of your goods.  Look for  a one piece resin with a latching lid if you are looking for water proof.  Although they are very good looking the wooden storage chest will not be water proof without some kind of liner and water proof lid.  Some larger storage containers are big enough for a riding lawnmower.

The vertical storage container will work in areas with less footprint.  Most are made of resin with double doors.  The vertical box's will come with shelves to sort your goods in.  Some of these can be stacked to make a closet in your outdoor space.

Look for some of the vertical containers that will be like some of your outdoor furniture.  Some end tables will have storage.  You can find some that will match your decor.

Pros

Can be a good place for spiders, rodents and wasp to hide from the weather.

Unless it is a one piece it will not be water proof.  You will have to have it under cover.
