A portable tool storing device includes first and second modular shelves configured to be brought into fitting engagement with each other in an upright direction by a back-to-back engagement manner so as to permit crosspieces to be juxtaposed to and combined with each other to form a handle for carrying. Each shelf includes a plurality of flank segments, each having an indented region. A modular container has a clip lug disposed to be clipped on the indented region to detachably hold the container on the flank segment so as to provide easy access to a tool in the container body.
