BOXES - 400 x 300 MM - Stacking - Lightweight - EX-VEGETABLE

About
Designed for stacking vegetables on pallets for international transport,
these boxes ( strictly speaking - crates )
are made to a general international standard ( with many slight variations ),
in 3 main sizes.
Description
We call them CORNER TUBE boxes,
as at each corner there is a circular tube
to provide the vertical strength for the downward transmission of weight,
to which the lateral lattice-work net is connected.

The inside of the tube
acts as a locator for a circular lug on the corners of the base of each box,
allowing them to lock together.

400 x 300 mm boxes range from 150 to 210 mm high.

2 BASIC TYPES DESCRIBED

Big Circle
We call boxes as in the image on the 400x300 mm page, the BIG circle.
Small Circle
There is a second CORNER TUBE box type - basically the same -
we call these the SMALL circle ( see image on the 500x300 mm page ),

They have circular locator lugs top and bottom -
in a slightly smaller diameter than the Big Circles.

They stack ON TOP of the Big Circles - but usually not underneath.

They are easily recognisable,
as instead of a full-height corner tube,
there is a corner frame.

ORDERING YOUR BOXES - THINK AHEAD IF YOU CAN

Stock varies
Vegetable deliveries are seasonal,
so surplus boxes arrive in feast or famine.

We steadily collect a few,
ready for people who appreciate inexpensive recycled boxes.
Order Size
You may only want one box -
we are happy to sell you one.
Order
in Advance
if possible
A house clearance firm recently bought 200 of these boxes,
in lots of 40 to 60 at a time,
and still wants more,
so if you need quantity, advance warning helps.
Free Delivery
When time is available,
we may deliver free within walking distance of Hanover.
