Six years ago, SAMS Club had sturdy blue plastic storage totes, with clamshell lids, for $4 each. They were roughly 15x12x20. I bought $120 worth when we moved: it was a lot cheaper than buying cardboard boxes from U-Haul, and they were perfect for moving heavy stuff in my shop.
I still have a lot of them full of shop stuff, and lots of them are holding project car parts. I also have one with electrical outlets and fittings while I'm wiring the shop, three of them are used for hauling my swap meet promotion gear, etc. etc. etc. They're absolutely awesome for the shop, as they hold a lot, they hold it neatly, and they stack on shelves well.
I need more. I'm about to start a Plymouth Duster project, and I need more bins for storage. And I need them cheap. Second-hand or used is fine. I probably need about 20 of them... maybe a few more. And if I have to, I can load them up and take the extras to my swap meet to sell.
Anyone have an idea where to look for tote boxes, particularly in the Atlanta area? I tried a websearch, but I suck at the interthingy.
Thanks,
