Questions & Answers

Is there any ridges on the bottom, or is it completely flat?

The bottom isn't perfectly flat, so don't expect it to be. The bus box has four shallow 'grooves' running the length of it, and the perimeter is slightly contoured as well.

Is there no bpa in this product?

It does not state whether it is bpa-free, but it does state in the description that it can withstand and be safe at temperatures ranging from 180 degrees Fahrenheit to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature is 30 degrees Fahrenheit. That means it can withstand a certain amount of heat but is not safe above 180 degrees F. I probably left it out in the cold on my screened porch - 15 Deg,F. This winter, it's still in great shape, with no cracks.

Is the plastic safe to eat?

These bus boxes are, in fact, made of food-grade high-density polyethylene. polyethylene with a high density

Does it sag, flex, or twist? If it does, it's no good to me. ?

The tub didn't twist or sag even when it was 3/4 full of water. If you load it up too much, I'm sure you'll run into these problems. It's made of vinyl.

As a result, I was on the lookout for some large tubs in which to soak
3/5

So I went on the hunt for some big tubs to soak my bar-b-que grills in. These tubs are advertised as being 21 years old. 75" long. They measured the outside width with the handles included, I discovered. The bottom tub measures 17 inches in length. For me, this isn't an option. If you need a tub with a lot of strength, these are the ones to go with. This is similar to the busing system used in restaurants. br>At the bottom, the interior dimensions are 17. 25" L x 12" W The dimensions are 5" W x 7" D.

These tubs can be used in a variety of ways
5/5

I knew exactly what I was going to do with these tubs before I even bought them. Because of their sturdiness and size, bus tubs came to mind as a possible option for my indoor aquaponics grow beds. Could I have gone with something larger for my grow beds and still fit them easily in the basement? Yes, but by going with bus tubs, I'll be able to add more tubs to the system and expand it both vertically and horizontally much more easily than if I went with something bigger. This is the first time I've used aquaponics to grow my own fruits and vegetables rather than tearing up the yard and putting in a traditional garden. After doing a lot of research, I came to the conclusion that aquaponics was the better and more cost-effective way to go because it only has an initial cost, but it provides so much more in terms of cost-effective gardening over time. br>br>I'll be purchasing more of these tubs in the future, not only to expand my aquaponics system, but also to use as a meat tub when grinding meat into hamburger or to store empty mason jars for easier canning access. I'm sure that the longer I keep them around and use them for other things, the more I'll think of new ways to put them to use. br>br>I'll update this review once I get the rest of my aquaponics supplies and get it up and running, so I can use these tubs for a while. br>br>Pros: Cons: Cost, durability, size, and limitless applicationsbr>br>Pros: It would be nice if there were more color options.

Excellent craftsmanship
5/5

They're exactly what they say they're going to be. Bins for busboys that are built to last. I bought them for my four prairie dogs to use as hay feeding bins. They're tall, which helps keep the hay contained in the cage. The plastic is very heavy duty, and despite the fact that my prairie dogs chew on everything, they only nibbled on these a little bit, which I believe is due to the plastic's hardness; I'm pretty sure it's polyethylene, as advertised; the only thing I don't like are the ridges in the bottom. I'm aware of what they're for. Those ridges are required if you intend to use them for their intended purpose of busing dishes. However, cleaning them as a hay bin is a pain because of the ridges, but that isn't the manufacturer's fault, so I can't give it a minus star. In addition, for two bins, it's a great deal. I looked all over and this is by far the best value for money.

Footbaths or preparing raw cat food are two activities that come to mind
5/5

I bought these to have a non-toxic, food-safe, bpa-free container to use for my detox footbaths (since I am extremely sensitive to toxins of any kind), and they work great! I was concerned that there would be too much water, but I've discovered that having so much water keeps the foot bath warm, and it's enjoyable to swirl my feet around in the water. The other one ended up being used to assist us in preparing raw food for our cats (raw food is the only thing that keeps their health issues at bay) - It's a good size, which makes it simple to mix in vitamins and scoop into smaller containers for freezing. In addition, before scooping it up into containers, we serve them a small banquet. We used to use 5 gallon buckets, but I had no idea they weren't food safe. This makes me feel a lot better about using it for their food prep.

Litter pans will love it
5/5

These make excellent cat litter pans, which is exactly what we're doing with them. The sides are higher than standard litter pans, and the overall "toughness" is significantly higher than standard litter pans. For this purpose, I will continue to buy as needed.

The ideal size for organizing your car trunk
5/5

My sister has had a set of these bins in her car trunk for over ten years, though they were not as sturdy, and one of them has broken down on the side. Over the last two years, she and I have looked in every store for a replacement without success. She stuffs her grocery bags inside to keep cans and jars from rolling around in the trunk on the way home. She also keeps her teaching materials in them, as well as the papers she needs to keep organized in the folders. To go with the other personal items, this is a practical Christmas gift. I'm overjoyed that I came across these on Amazon. I plan to buy my own set of these in a few months.

Extremely well constructed There are a lot more applications for it than it was designed for
5/5

These were purchased for my art studio to hold all of my materials so that I could quickly switch between mediums (working in oil with Cold Wax vs water color). They are the perfect size to hold a lot of materials while not being too bulky to fit on the shelf under my drafting table. Everything is in place. I figured they'd be useful for everything from papermache to papermaking (holding mixed pulp) and soaking smaller watercolor papers in the future. br>When I was reading reviews to compare brands, I noticed that people were using these for a variety of purposes! Meat grinders, storage bins, soaking feet, dishwashing, and cat litter pans! br>In the future, I'm likely to purchase more.

Suitable for a wide range of applications
4/5

I'm not going to be busing tables anytime soon, but it's exactly what I'm looking for. Cat litter boxes I've purchased are weak and flimsy, and they don't last; this utility buss box, on the other hand, has been serving as a cat litter box for years. I finally broke the last one while cleaning it out, but I'd had it for nearly three years due to its durability. The size is ideal, and it's built to last; I'm pleased with the quality, but I'll be using plastic bags this time to keep it in pristine condition for longer before cleaning is required. Four out of five stars!.
