Great for storing things in your basement or garage. In garage it can handle 90+ F degrees and periods below freezing too. Warning . at cold temperatures the plastic gets brittle so do not drop them on garage floor. Be more gentle in winter and they will last several years.
Highly recommend these. Can hold a lot of stuff, including important papers you want to keep for 7 years in case needed for IRS audits, etc. (bills, tax filings, investment buy and sell histories, etc). Can also be used to store liquids, painting supplies, auto supplies, tools, DVDs, wiring, games, toys, etc,...... Buy some stick on large sticky labels (from amazon) and label your boxes for better organization of your stuff.
I've been using these types of storage containers for over 20 years.
Good for storing your travel emergency stuff in your vehicle trunk - emergency vests, flares, flashlights, first aid kit, tools, emergency blankets, gloves, ice scraper, etc.. (all available on Amazon)
I wish they had more color options to choose from.
I purchased blue.
Would like an orange for Halloween and thanksgiving time, red for valentines and green for Xmas season.
Generic colors I use for lawn stuff, toys and supplies I like to keep neat and put up.
have limited odor control ability. Best thing to do is to clean out the litter box frequently (one of my most disliked chores).
Litter will still get spilled outside of this box so
you still need a broom and dustpan or a HEPA vacuum cleaner to sweep up / vacuum the litter around the box.
Otherwise size is good and I like the lids.

These are the hardiest ones I’ve found, and have solid metal pins in the hinge and high quality plastic that doesn’t shatter if you drop them. The clear sides make it easy to figure out what’s inside without having to dig through a stack. Highly recommended.

I've purchased 5 or 6 of these from Amazon Warehouse Deals and I've never received a damaged one. The only issue with buying from Warehouse Deals is that they often add a barcode or other inspection sticker to the bin that requires some goo gone to remove completely.
