With the handles and casters installed, the Milwaukee 60-inch Mobile Work Station (model 48-22-8560) measures 63.25 inches wide, 23.9 inches deep, and 37.8 inches high. With the pegboard fully extended, its height reaches 60 inches. [1]
The “60-inch” name does not mean the assembled station is exactly 60 inches wide: its listed width is 63.25 inches with the handles and casters installed. [1] That distinction matters when you’re checking whether it will fit through a doorway, sit beside another bench, or leave enough room for a walkway. Measure the space where you plan to park it, and account for the handles rather than comparing the product name with the opening.
Depth and height matter, too. The station’s installed depth is 23.9 inches, while its standard listed height is 37.8 inches. [1] If you intend to use the pegboard fully extended, plan for a total height of 60 inches. [1] For example, a low shelf or overhead cabinet may clear the station when the pegboard is down but interfere when it is raised; check the full height against the space above your planned parking spot.
These measurements describe the unit with its handles and casters installed, so they’re the most useful figures for planning where the assembled station will go. [1] If you’re laying out a shop, compare the 63.25-inch width and 23.9-inch depth with the actual floor area available, then consider whether the extended pegboard will fit below any ceiling fixtures or storage. The dimensions help you judge fit, but they do not tell you how much open room you’ll have to move around the station once it is in place.
In short, use the assembled dimensions—not the “60-inch” label alone—when checking fit: 63.25 inches wide by 23.9 inches deep by 37.8 inches high, with a 60-inch maximum height when the pegboard is fully extended. [1]
What do those measurements include?
The listed 63.25-inch width is the overall width with the handles and casters installed, while the 23.9-inch depth and 37.8-inch height describe the station in that same standard configuration. [1] That makes the full measurements useful when you’re checking whether the work station will fit through a doorway, along a garage wall, or beside another cabinet. [1]
Read the measurements as an assembled footprint
For a floor-space check, use the complete listed footprint: 63.25 inches wide by 23.9 inches deep, with a height of 37.8 inches. [1] For example, if you’re planning a parking spot beside a workbench, compare the available width with the 63.25-inch figure—not just a rounded “60-inch” label. [1]
The width includes the installed handles and casters, so it reflects the station with those parts in place rather than a bare cabinet measurement. [1] If you’re measuring a tight passage or storage bay, leave enough room for the actual installed unit and account for the space you need to move it; the source gives the dimensions, but not a recommended clearance. [1]
The 23.9-inch depth and 37.8-inch height are the listed dimensions for the standard setup. [1] They are useful for comparing the station with the depth of your existing cabinets or checking whether its height works under shelves, but measure your own space before moving equipment into it.
Don’t mix up the 60-inch station and 61-inch workbench
Those are different product listings, so don’t use the workbench’s 61-inch width or 22-inch depth as the dimensions for model 48-22-8560. [2][1]
That distinction matters when you compare product pages or plan a row of storage cabinets. The names are close, and both listings give a height of 37.8 inches, but the stated widths and depths differ. [2][1] Match the model number on the product you’re considering to the measurements in its listing before you decide how much floor space to reserve.
One measurement detail is separate from the standard height: the source lists the station as 60 inches high with the pegboard fully extended. [1] If you plan to use that extended configuration, check the overhead space as well as the 37.8-inch standard height; the source does not give a separate width or depth for the extended setup. [1]
In short, use 63.25 by 23.9 by 37.8 inches for the standard station with handles and casters installed, and treat the 60-inch height as the pegboard-extended measurement. [1] Keep model 48-22-8561’s separate 61-by-22-by-37.8-inch workbench dimensions out of your calculation unless that is the product you intend to buy. [2][1]
How much room should you leave around it?
Measure the assembled workstation against its intended parking space, then allow extra room to roll it, open drawers, and reach the work area. With handles and casters installed, its reported dimensions are 63.25 inches wide, 23.9 inches deep, and 37.8 inches high; the height is 60 inches with the pegboard fully extended. [1]
Check the footprint first
Compare the workstation’s assembled width and depth with the space where you plan to park it. A spot that is exactly 63.25 inches wide and 23.9 inches deep matches the reported footprint, but leaves no room to spare beside or behind the unit. [1] These are the workstation’s dimensions, not a recommended clearance; the source does not specify how much extra space to leave.
Measure the usable space at floor level, including any pinch points along the route. For example, if you plan to park the workstation beside a bench, measure from the bench to the opposite obstruction and compare that gap with the workstation’s 23.9-inch depth. [1] Also check the narrowest doorway or aisle on the way to the parking spot, since a space that fits the unit may still be hard to reach.
Leave room to move and work
Plan for open space in front of the workstation so you can access its drawers and work area. The reported width and depth are measured with handles and casters installed, so use those assembled dimensions when checking the route and parking space. [1] The source does not give a specific allowance for rolling or drawer access, so decide how much space you need based on the layout and tasks.
A practical way to test a proposed spot is to mark the workstation’s width and depth on the floor with tape. Then mark a separate working area in front, where drawers can open and you can stand to use the workstation. The tape marks are only a planning aid, not manufacturer clearance dimensions. Check nearby doors, cabinets, benches, and stored materials for anything that could block movement or access.
Check overhead space for the pegboard
If you plan to extend the pegboard, make sure the space above the parking spot can accommodate the reported 60-inch overall height. [1] The workstation’s reported height is 37.8 inches with the pegboard down and 60 inches with it fully extended. [1] Measure from the floor to the lowest shelf, cabinet, or other obstruction above the unit.
For example, a spot with enough overhead room for the workstation at 37.8 inches may not have enough room for the fully extended pegboard. [1] If the pegboard would meet an overhead obstruction, choose a different parking location or plan to keep it retracted there. The source does not specify additional clearance above the extended pegboard, so check the actual space rather than treating 60 inches as a complete clearance recommendation.
What should you verify before buying or moving it?
Confirm the exact model and plan for both the assembled footprint and the route into your shop before buying or moving this workstation. Milwaukee’s product page identifies the 60-inch Mobile Work Station as model 48-22-8560; don’t assume another Milwaukee workstation has the same dimensions. [3] For more detail, see . Milwaukee 60-Inch Mobile Work Station Price: What to Expect.
Match the model number
Check the model number on the listing, order confirmation, or product label. The product page title pairs “60\” Mobile Work Station” with “48-22-8560,” which gives you a specific identifier to compare. [3] If a seller describes a different model or uses a broad name such as “mobile workstation,” ask for the model number rather than relying on the product name alone. You may also find this useful: . How to Assemble a Milwaukee 60-Inch Mobile Work Station.
That check matters when you compare measurements. A dimension listed for one workstation does not confirm the size of another model, and the sources here identify the measurements below specifically as those of the 60-inch model. [3][1] Keep the model number beside your measurements so you can check that the product and the space plan refer to the same item.
Measure the final parking space
For the assembled unit, allow for 63.25 inches wide by 23.9 inches deep by 37.8 inches high, with the handles and casters installed. [1] These are the dimensions to compare with the place where you intend to park it, not just the “60-inch” size in the product name. [3][1]
For example, if you plan to keep it against a shop wall, measure the clear floor area and the available height at that spot. Check whether nearby benches, shelves, or stored lumber leave room for the full width and depth. The review also reports a height of 60 inches with the pegboard fully extended, so account for that if you plan to use the pegboard in its extended position. [1]
Check the route separately
A clear parking spot does not prove the workstation can reach it. Measure narrow doorways, hallway turns, and the vehicle or delivery access separately, then compare those measurements with the assembled dimensions. [1]
For a doorway, note the narrowest clear opening rather than the door’s nominal size. At a turn, check the open area beyond the doorway as well as the opening itself; a unit may fit through a straight passage but have limited room to change direction. These are practical planning checks, not additional product dimensions, so use your own measurements for the route.
Confirm current product details
Before ordering, verify the model number and current product details with Milwaukee. The available product page identifies model 48-22-8560, while the dimension listing comes from a review; checking the current listing helps you confirm you are planning around the right product. [3][1]
If delivery is involved, ask how the workstation will arrive and whether the listed measurements apply to the configuration you’ll receive. The review’s figures specify handles and casters installed, so compare them with the setup you expect to move and park. [1] A short checklist—model number, parking footprint, overhead clearance, and route measurements—can help you catch a mismatch before the workstation reaches your shop.
The dimensions to plan around
The assembled footprint to plan around is 63.25 in. wide × 23.9 in. deep × 37.8 in. high, with the pegboard fully extended reaching 60 in. high. [1] Before you choose a parking spot, measure the floor area and overhead clearance, then leave room to move the station into position.
Think of the listed width and depth as the space the unit occupies with its handles and casters installed, not as the full working clearance you may want around it. [1] For example, if you plan to roll it beside a workbench, check that the route is wide enough for the assembled station and that the final position leaves you space to reach tools and work comfortably.
The pegboard changes the height you need to allow for: the station is 37.8 in. high as listed, but reaches 60 in. with the pegboard fully extended. [1] Measure from the floor to the lowest obstruction above the planned spot, such as a shelf or cabinet, and compare that space with the extended height before moving the unit there.
The practical takeaway is to plan for both the floor footprint and the full 60-inch extended height. [1] Measure the intended location and the path into it, then confirm that the station can be moved into place and that the pegboard can extend without hitting anything overhead.
