these are on offer again at £5 each - some other good reductions such as 31L underbed crates reduced to £3 from £5
last deal was posted 6 months ago so decided it was a good idea to make another post so more people see it

Look quite good these' think I'll order a couple' cheers :sunglasses: incidentally homebase have quite a bit of a sale on certain storage boxes & baskets.
I'm moving house at the moment and I thought these would make great packing boxes, so I ordered a bunch for store pickup when they had an offer a month or so ago. When I picked them up, they were stacked and wrapped in bubble wrap, so I just shoved them in the car. Turns out that the bottom one was cracked and holed in one corner. I'm not doing an hour round trip for a replacement and structurally it's still good, so I've just filled it with some large boxes of (heavy) tools that won't fall through the hole.
Basically the plastic is a little more brittle that other plastic crates, but they are far cheaper than branded ones and very nearly as cheap as cardboard packing boxes, so I'm satisfied.
If you do pickup, make sure they are all good.

I bought the ones from staples for £8.50 a box if buy more than 3 they are 64l but I'm fed up of vying boxes and they break after a few years of being so brittle. Lesson learnt

I order to click and collect to store, and going on the last ones I got both lots of 5 boxes had 10 meters of bubble wrap round them so free wrapping for moving house. These stack 3 high if top 2 are light contents.
