Storage Totes: Spacious & Easy to Roll


Category: Tote bags Buying Guides

Nearly every place in your house, from your living room to the entryway, requires the use of storage totes.
They come in handy when you want a quick pickup of toys and tools around the yard, or when you need storage space for those frequently used small items. And storage totes are also a necessity for industries from food processing to computer assembly.

Storage totes' capacity ranges from about 5 gallon to 45 gallon or even bigger. The larger models are spacious enough for your off-season clothes or the entire collection of your kid's toy. Plus, some storage totes have two or four wheels for easy mobility, enabling large quantities of internals to be moved from point to point easily.

Today's storage totes come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and openings. Basic storage totes have a clean, simple design with strength and durability. Stackable storage bins are durable, and often have a molded area for ID labels so you'll know what's inside with at-a-glance simplicity. Plus, plastic storage totes usually come with finger grips and handles for easy transport.

Although high-density plastic is the most popular material to make storage bins, there's storage totes made of other materials, such as fiberglass, canvas and even leather. Plastic and fiberglass models are good for general household use or industry use. Weather resistant plastic will keep out moisture and stands up to sun and cold without cracking. Canvas storage totes are usually designed for indoor use in offices, bedrooms or bathrooms. As all-purpose storage bins, canvas storage totes make a handy cleanup tool. They usually have two handles, making it a snap to pick up and carry. Some also has rigid side supports that keep the tote upright.

Tips for Storage Totes Selection
A huge variety of storage tote designs are available, so choosing the right type might be difficult. Here is a list of questions you need to ask yourself when buying a storage tote:

What size do you need, large storage totes for bulk use or small stackable bins?
What's the weight limit of the storage tote? How much weight do you need to put in?
Where will the storage totes be used, indoor or outdoor?
If outdoor, will they be exposed to extremes in temperature or moisture?
How will you store these totes? Do you want stackable storage totes, nesting ones or collapsible models?
Do you need ID labels?
Will the totes be stationary or mobile? Do you need wheeled models?
Do you need lockable latches to protect stored goods?

No matter what your budget is, you need to shop for the best tote configuration to protect stored goods for years to come. With some durable storage totes for all the little things that usually end up here or there, you'll get organized, and stay organized in a quick and easy way.
