<br><br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Hello all,</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">My next question is about bulk'ish plastic
storage bins.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">I'm looking for plastic storage bins,
around the size of 24"X15"X18". &nbsp;Note, actual size
is not important, just around those dimensions approximately.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">However, once you start looking into
these, the prices seem counter to buying a bunch. &nbsp;I was thinking
of buying maybe 20 or 40 of these, but most would mean hundreds (or thousands)
of dollars. In fact, Uline starts ONE of these containers (a little bit
bigger than I need) for over $400 A PIECE! </font>
<br>

color="blue"><u>https://www.uline.com/BL_8213/Plastic-Bulk-Containers</u></font></a><font
 size="3">
</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Many of Amazon seem to be over $30 a
piece. &nbsp;I didn't want to spend that much on these.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Does anyone know of a good reasonable
alternative? &nbsp;Is there maybe a place that sells them as surplus or
something?</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Thanks.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">I can't use cardboard, I am trying to
keep out mice and moisture (but it doesn't need to be airtight if the price
is right). &nbsp;I would prefer something stackable, but if not, I can
make shelves. Again, exact size isn't important, but big enough to hold
at least 5 binders would be a good start.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">This is for storage of shop items and
such.</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Thanks.</font>
